One Choice: R-Rated DC Movies

Inspired by the popular online game that asks people to choose one movie from a group of four, One Choice… is pretty much the same game. Readers will be given four similar movies and asked to choose one. Now here’s the catch, the other three movies will be gone forever, wiped from your brain as if they never existed. Are you ready to theoretically live in a world where you have The Empire Strikes Back but not Star Wars or Return of the Jedi? What about the 1989 Batman movie but not Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight? The choice is yours, screenager, so choose wisely.


We did R-Rated Marvel last Sunday, so it’s only fair to do R-Rated DC this Sunday. There are a couple of doozies here, so good luck picking only one. Here are the 4 Movies:

Constantine (2005)

Cast: Keanu Reeves, Rachel Weisz, and Djimon Hounsou among others

Synopsis: Supernatural exorcist and demonologist John Constantine helps a policewoman prove her sister’s death was not a suicide, but something more.


Watchmen (2009)

Cast: Jackie Earle Haley, Patrick Wilson, and Carla Gugino among others

Synopsis: In 1985 where former superheroes exist, the murder of a colleague sends active vigilante Rorschach into his own sprawling investigation, uncovering something that could completely change the course of history as we know it.


Zack Snyder’s Justice League (2021)

Cast: Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, and Gal Gadot among others

Synopsis: Determined to ensure that Superman’s ultimate sacrifice wasn’t in vain, Bruce Wayne recruits a team of metahumans to protect the world from an approaching threat of catastrophic proportions.


THE SUICIDE SQUAD<br /> (L-r) JOEL KINNAMAN as Colonel Rich Flag, ALICE BRAGA as Sol Soria, DANIELA MELCHIOR as Ratcatcher 2, KING SHARK, IDRIS ELBA as Bloodsport and JOHN CENA as Peacemaker

The Suicide Squad (2021)

Cast: Margot Robbie, Idris Elba, and John Cena among others

Synopsis: Supervillains Harley Quinn, Bloodsport, Peacemaker, and a collection of nutty cons at Belle Reve prison join the super-secret, super-shady Task Force X as they are dropped off at the remote, enemy-infused island of Corto Maltese.


So, will it be Constantine, Watchmen, Zack Snyder’s Justice League, or The Suicide Squad? It’s time to choose. What will be your One Choice?
