GamesRadar+ and Total Film are celebrating the biggest new releases as we head back to the cinema! This week: The Suicide Squad. The supervillains have been dispatched on another off-the-books mission, but this time they’ve brought a “douchey Captain America”, a talking shark, and the director of Guardians of the Galaxy.
