Jason Bourne or Suicide Sqaud?

so i can see either of these tomorrow (8/6). with the lukewarm reviews for JB and horrid reviews for SS, i have hesitation on both. love the Bourne series and Matt Damon, but thinking SS could be mindless, dumb fun. really torn.

help me out?

Seen one Bourne, you seen them all. Go with the one that could at least be fun, SS.

Why are those your only options?

The biggest complaint for SS seems to be that it isn't any fun.

Jason Bourne's biggest complaint is that most of the first hour is boring.

I say cut your losses and go watch Labyrinth in the park, or another local event.

Stay home and crack open a Blu from your backlog.

You'll get better entertainment value by staying home and striking up a digital copy. If you have to take a poll on watching either, then that's reason enough to skip them. I have passes for both as well, but I'm giving them to my brother.

If it doesn't matter, just flip a damn coin. You're high again.

I've thrown away free tickets to films that I feel are going to suck, but that's just me. I'd rather dedicate those two hours to something I might actually enjoy, like one of the ten Criterions that I still haven't opened from the last B&N sale.

She was super hot in WoWS, and tremendously naked.

If you want a better movie, Jason Bourne. If you want to see Margot Robbie...pop in Wolf of Wall Street.

Yeah, I've been meaning to get to WoWS again. I wouldn't see a movie based solely on a hot chick flashing some clothed booty. That just wouldn't be logical...

Re: Jason Bourne or Suicide Sqaud?

Are you really pressed for time? What else do you have planned for Saturday?

Just pick one and stick with it if you really only have time for 1 movie. I say Jason Bourne if you like the series.

If I had 2 free movie cash vouchers and nothing else planned for the day, I'd try to do a double feature.

I liked Jason Bourne. Not the best of the series but still pretty entertaining if you like that series. If you want to see the movie everyone seems to be talking about, whether it is good or bad, Suicide Squad is it.

Re: Jason Bourne or Suicide Sqaud?

You love the Bourne films so far, and this one is more positive reviews.

Critics Consensus: Jason Bourne delivers fans of the franchise more of what they've come to expect -- which is this sequel's biggest selling point as well as its greatest flaw.

This thread is a waste of your time and our attention.

Suicide Squad. I'll take Star Trek Beyond over Jason Bourne and Suicide Squad.

According to the poll, tell us how Bourne turns out.

Re: Jason Bourne or Suicide Sqaud?

So tomorrow's the day I see my free movie. Most likely going with Suicide Squad. Want something somewhat original and this looks like it could be at least some fun...

So you decide to see a movie that did not win your fucking poll. Thanks for wasting our fucking time. Fucking lame. Where's Snake?
