This is the premise of the new Warner Animation movie, Batman: Assault on Arkham. Amanda Waller (CCH Pounder) calls upon the “Suicide Squad”, a group of super villains that are used when the government needs that “special touch.” This time the Squad must break into Arkham Asylum, a place most bad guys avoid.

Vids: Review Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or What Not To Spend Your Money on This Week

Vids: Guardians of the Galaxy Review or How a “B” Team Became the “A” Team at the Box Office
When I first heard about the Guardians of the Galaxy movie I have
