This movie sees Adam Sander in a different type of cast as he tries to meet up with his old basketball teammates for the July Fourth celebration – that sums up the whole plot of the movie.

Suicide Squad had a unique concept of teaming up a group of villains to ward off another villain, rather than resorting to superheroes. The movie was highly anticipated based on the ad, but it was not delivered. Audiences, due to the hype of the film, assured that the film was a commercial success, grossing $ 746.8 billion against a $ 175 million budget.
