I went into this with a friend of mine when it came out. If you watched a Pacific theater WW2 movie and wrote an article about why it is not explained why we are supposed to hate the Japanese how should people react?
I wasnt really into the Marvel comics growing up and yet thanks to my glowing rectangle it was pretty easy to figure out who that Thanos guy was.
Don't assume your audience is dumb. Even if you have to assume that you can at least assume that they have glowing rectangles.
So yeah they didn't spend a lot of time on each and everyone's backstory. Did you really need it? Was it so very difficult to figure out that lady clearly working for the US government did in fact work for the US government? How about all the backstory shown for Deadshot and Harley? Did you need more? Because if so you got wikipedia.
Sorry to be rude I don't mean to be. Still bothers me that all these professional movie critics couldn't bother to spend the slightest amount of time reading up on this stuff. I liked the movie, I loved the comics when I was a kid.
