All Hail The Suicide Squad! Our Saviors of the DCEU. Don't listen to the critics. Go see this movie, because it is FAN-F-ING-TASTIC and F-ING RAD. The DCEU's best yet.

Pros:

- Margot Robbie embodied Harley Quinn and nailed her. All I can say is Warner Bros., green light her solo movie for the big screen.

- Will Smith shined as Deadshot. And, when he got his moment in the movie, everyone in my theater clapped.

- Viola Davis showed her fear as Amanda Waller and proved she's not one to mess with.

- El Diablo was the one who surprised me and had a great arc in the movie. And, when the huge moment happens to him in the big finale, people will go nuts in a good way.

- Rick Flagg also gets a good arc in this movie as he struggles to save his love while honor his duties and it pays off well.

- Jai Courtney happened with Boomerang. Even if he was reduced to comic relief, he was still fun to laugh with.

- I also really liked how the movie in the opening addressed the aftermath of Batman V Superman's when we see the influence Superman's sacrifice gave the world. And, this movie really set up a lot for where the future of the DCEU is headed, especially in the film's mid-credits scene, which you all should stay for.

- Now, it is true we didn't get a lot of Jared Leto's Joker in this movie, but, when he was on screen, I thought he played the Joker well. And, Heath Ledger is still the best. But, Jared Leto's Joker when he did show up on screen was cool. I hope we see more of him in the DCEU, soon.

- How Batman fits into this movie works well. And, the surprise JL cameo of [SPOILER ALERT] The Flash works well with Boomerang's backstory. And, I hope we see those two fight each other in the 2018 Flash solo movie soon.

- The music worked well, especially when Eminem's Without Me played, that really impressed me.

- Killer Croc is what he is and is not bad.

- Katana doesn't get much to do, but, when she speaks to her husband's soul in her sword before she goes into battle, I thought it was a sad but nice quiet moment.

- The flashbacks of the majority of the Squad and how they fit in work well.

Cons:

- Enchantress felt like a generic villain.

- Some scenes in the trailer didn't end up in the movie. Hope to see them on the Blu-Ray.

- No Lex Luthor cameo. Oh well.

Overall, you shouldn't miss out on this one. Go see it. 5 stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The plot may not be perfect but the characters all were, they were funny and very interesting. The actors are too talented for their own good. The movie deserves better reviews.

I'll keep it simple. I'll start by saying, never forget that movie critics trashed Apocalypse Now when it came out. Is Suicide Squad as good as Apocalypse Now? Hell yeah it is! For me at least. This was the Apocalypse Now of superhero moviesI'll keep it simple. I'll start by saying, never forget that movie critics trashed Apocalypse Now when it came out. Is Suicide Squad as good as Apocalypse Now? Hell yeah it is! For me at least. This was the Apocalypse Now of superhero movies for me. There I said it. Hahahaha. This is the kind of filmmaking I like. I loved how it cuts away like Family Guy to show us the awesome exposition rather than just say it. Kept me on my toes. Everything with the Joker is perfect. But he is the conduit to get us to Harley Quinn. This is her movie, not his. When watching BvS I understood why some critics didn't like that movie. I didn't agree, but I understood. I have no idea what these critics who are trashing this movie are smoking. Or maybe it's what they're not smoking. Maybe they thought they were getting a Joker movie and they got a Suicide Squad movie. Will Smith and Margot Robbie owned this movie. It was so much fun to watch. I laughed, cheered, even got a little emotional at times with Harley and Mr. J's romance. There wasn't a character in this film I didn't like. Even Adam Beach and Scott Eastwood stood out. Kinnaman was a big surprise. I loved his relationship with Delevingne. Viola Davis was wicked good. Jay Hernandez took what could have been a throwaway character and gave him so much spirit. Jai Courtney and Karen Fukuhara played off each other wonderfully. Killer Croc has some of the best one liners. To sum it up, I just feel bad for anyone who doesn't enjoy this movie as much as I did. I'm glad this movie was exactly what I thought it was going to be. Fun, fun and more fun. I cannot wait to go watch this movie ten more times in the theater. It is simply epic. Best comic book movie of the year, just ahead of Deadpool. For me, up there with The Dark Knight and Burton's Batman. Do not understand at all why this movie got panned. I'm not expecting everyone to think it's the best film of the year. For me it is. I just can't quite comprehend people thinking this is worse than ID42, which according to RT, it is. C'est la vie. I feel like if Tarantino ever made a superhero movie, this is what it would look like. Expand

Will smith, marggot robbie were great in the parts they play. Even though they didn't make harley bonkers enough. Everyone else were fogettable and useless charcters. I thought entretchees was awesome and cara devigne was great in the part. Leto was terrible as the joker! Even if you forget about the ledger performace. Leto joker is still bad. With lines that arent funny and doing things that the joker would not do. Hes more of just a common criminal thats just a little sadistic. Overall the film is watchable and i thought it was going to be terrible with all the bad reviews but it wasn't. DC only problem is that they never had that great of charecters as marvel. So they really have to dig. Marvel always had the better comic books and charcters. Last thought....I've never seen a more beautiful woman than margot robbie and even though she is aulstralian she can nail a new york queens accent with no problem. Expand

Yes, the movie is undeniably rough around the edges, but, y'see, it's the performers, their characters, and their interactions that makes this movie - forgive me - pretty friggin' dope to watch. Again, it's an inarguably imperfect film, but a film that's ultimately rendered watchable -- nay, lovable -- infectiously effective humor, enthralling action scenes, and a commendable emphasis on using dynamic characters to smooth out a fairly messy story.

Once again the critics know squat about the comic book/superhero movie genre. For those that are wondering...Jared Leto was outstanding as The Joker, Margot Robbie nailed it as Harley Quinn and Will Smith was great as Deadshot.

There are quite a few laughs along the way, which helps. Capt. Boomerang and Harley in particular bring some comic relief.

Minor gripes: Will Smith is not cut out to play Deadshot, at least not one that is accurate to the comics. However I can live with it because the movie as a whole was satisfying. Also, I don't know why they subsituted Killer Croc for King Shark. Maybe they couldn't afford the CGI for King Shark?

Anyway, I'd bet dollars to donuts it is better than BM v. SM or Man of Steel. At least SS does not take itself too seriously.

The movie was actually pretty good. The cast nailed their parts in both the serious moments as well as the parts where they can fool around and show that they do have a sense of humor.

Introductions to each character wasn't long and boring and read a lot like a page in a comic book. Meaning, the cameos (as many know to be mainly Batman and the Joker) to introduce the characters were nice and very loyal to the comic books and animated source material...a ton of easter eggs were to be found for comic book lovers that didn't take away from those who aren't well versed with the source material.

Only gripe was the villain...just seemed out of place and a bit over the top for the Suicide Squad as their introductory movie. Probably the weakest part of the film but there is a silver lining: The movie didn't waste time. We got right into the action and it didn't take away from getting to love the characters.

For the main gist of the movie being "worst heroes ever", it does score high for properly proving that in a way that provides good entertainment.

When the film gets things right, it totally gets them right. It’s a weird, kick-ass, action-packed ride and just an overall blast that breathes life back into the DC Universe because of how much heart it has. I cannot wait to spend more time with these characters in a potential sequel or even other films where they might pop up in. The cameos are smoothly inserted, the world building isn’t forced and it features a mid-credit scene that I’ll say is one of the best a comic book film has featured to date. Even if you dislike the film, stay in your seat and wait for that as you won’t be disappointed. If you’re still on the fence, I really only have two words for you: Squad up. Expand

The characters are likable (Joker, Harley Quinn and Deadshot anyone?), the cast does a fantastic job playing their roles, the action is badass and the humor is funny. The only problem i had with the film is that how much screen time Joker got. He was 2nd top billed and was shown a lot in the trailers but yet he is only in the film for like 15 minutes! There were more Joker scenes but they were cut from the film. I hope we get to see the deleted Joker scenes. Overall, i enjoyed this film and i look forward to seeing more of the Suicide Squad in the future! I HIGHLY recommend people to watch this film cause they are gonna have a hell of a fun time! Expand

The film had an interesting story and added in a lot of action pact as well as comical moments. Introduction to the characters I believe was successful because it made you want to see A LOT more especially Joker who definitely had a lot of scenes cut and I want David Ayer to release if there is one a full version of the movie on the DVD and in future release the full one in cinema' and that goes for any director of a DC film. At times I felt bits where rushed and a few bits unanswered. I do recommend people to watch it as it does have everything a comic book movie should have; action, comedy, intensity and you're desirous for more. Expand

Slipknot does not even have a introduction even though he has briefly used in the movie... The main villain is probably the female Amanda Waller who is organizer of the Suicide Squad but really she just wants power and control. The movie does a good part of humanizing the villain...particularly Harley Quinn and Joker have some very good scenes together. These two couple easier have their own movie together. I liked the prospective from the "bad guys" rather than the good guys for once. Enchantress and her brother also are very well done. I was also glad to finally see Killer Croc get a significant movie role as he is oftenlooked! Great movie... dont listen to the critics. See it. Expand

In fact, it's a pretty fun movie carried by its magnificent cast of characters. The actors really do give it their all; Will Smith isn't just being Will Smith cosplaying as Deadshot, he's a fun somewhat new interpretation of the character that really works in favour of the movie. He's comical when appropriate and serious and engaging when the story calls for it - you really get the sense that this is a good guy who uses his talent to better the life of his daughter. It just so happens that his talent is being really, exceptionally good at shooting people. You immediately gravitate towards Deadshot as the audience can relate to him in many ways, and he injects much needed humour into the DCEU. Now I'm not saying that the DC movies need to be Marvel levels of funny, in fact I prefer the darker tone of DC, but human being naturally are quite humorous even in dark situations so it appropriate for some characters to make humorous comments like real people do. Margot Robbie embodies Harley Quinn and does the character immense justice. She's beautiful and crazy and that's just what we wanted. I cannot fault her performance at all. My only issue is with her characters physical design; I find her outfit incredibly skimpy just for the sake of making it skimpy. I know she's hot in the comics I would have just preferred a more decent outfit - love the tattoos though. And her relationship with the Joker is by far the best thing in this movie, I just wish we'd seen more of it. Jared Leto is phenomenal as the Clown Prince of Crime and now all I want is more Joker. Specifically his relationship with Harley. Jai Courtney, an actor who is basically terrible in everything he is in is wonderful in this movie. He's funny and charismatic and just overall a great presence in the movie, although in terms of actually aiding the team in combat, he's a bit useless. The other members of the Squad are all great just some like Killer Croc are very under-utilised which is sad, because he was a great character. In terms of story, the first half of the movie is fantastic; from the way they introduce that characters, to assembling the squad, to readying for the mission is all superb. Where the movie faulters is in the villain, specifically their motivations. They're just evil because why not. Like "let's destroy the world with no explanation other than we're p evil using a machine that will take awhile to work giving the heroes (or in this case bad guys) time to stop us" kinda evil. The final act of the movie is also rather disappointing. When the squad fight the muhaha evil guys they don't work as a team each using their powers to aid them they just kinda shoot at the big bad than leave one guy to take it on while the others stand perfectly still and watch. It's really underwhelming. Despite the crappy last act the chemistry between the team is enough to keep you invested and carry the movie through to the end in a movie that isn't terrible and in a movie that isn't fantastic, just in a movie that is fun and mostly enjoyable. Suicide Squad is a real step I the right direction for the DC franchise. Let's all look forward to Wonder Woman and Justice League because this movie proves there's still hope. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Well i don't blame critics for any of the fuzz, but it doesn't mean SS is bad either. It's passable for sure lots of actions lots of fun. The characters in SS is by far the most handled of all DCEU Movies, SS give more multidimensional aspect of it's characters without sacrificing it's core. Margot Robbie steal the show, and i'm amaze will smith and Joel Kinnaman kills it, both of them surpass my expectation. Viola davies also gives THE TRUE INTEPRETATION of amanda waller and WB should bring her to another DCEU Movies. I can't lie that i want jared Leto more, his performance is good but the moments he's in isn't elevate him into stellar performances, he should given more screen time eventough i knew he should be a third party in SS. Batman cameo and the Flash cameo it's a good move to show interconnected universe that been build in previous two movies, and i gotta say Ben affleck still best Batman potrayal on screen. Well i gotta be honest that SS had little bit messy transition between the scenes and the cut seems rough in a few scenes, it's like repeating "Batman v Superman's Mistakes" which is not a good thing. The plot little bit loose in the middle and The 3rd act it's the worst one i expect more a stellar final battle. Overall i enjoy it, but please do your homework Warner Bros, it seems you keep repeating the same mistakes. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. My first reaction after (and during, I suppose) watching "Squad" was 'What movie did the critics watch? Because it certainly wasn't the same one I just did!" I found Suicide Squad to be one of the most enjoyable comic book films of the post-Christopher Nolan "Dark Knight" era. The performances were spot on (even Leto's Joker -- whose limited screen time I thought was a smart move on part of DC; after all, it's only been 8 years since Ledger's Oscar-winning performance), the one-liners kept coming while the action kept the story moving along that by the end of it, I felt I'd watched a 90-minute film instead of a 2-hour +. Okay, the story that I just mentioned ... a little weak, but based on just about every other superhero action flick of the past 5 years (yes, I'm looking at you Marvel), I don't think the movie should be completely trashed off of that and that alone. The *spoiler* Enchantress-villain final battle scene was excellent, and that special final scene at Belle Reve was quite possibly one of my favorite in the entire movie and will definitely help set up Quinn's future in the DCEU. It seems the "professional' reviewers are going out of their way to make this film sound like one of the worst superhero flicks of all time and a 26% Rotten Tomato rating has me very puzzled. It's not perfect, no, but it's the most fun I've had at the movies in a very long time. If you're even remotely a fan of ANY of these DC characters, you should do yourself a favor and check it out -- and if you're not? Check it out anyway! "Suicide Squad" is DC's most experimental film ever, and their best since 2012's "The Dark Knight Rises." A solid third entry for the franchise! Expand

For what the movie was it was good. Just don't expect to get an emotional attachment to anyone not named Deadshot or Harley. I think this movie would have been great if we got a tad bit more backstory on everyone. Joker was great in his own way!

I don't understand why critics nowadays have to take movies apart like that and analyse every single shot and word that is spoken... The most important part of a movie is that it draws the audience with it and makes you enjoy yourself isn't it?
And i don't know about you guys but i definitely enjoyed myself!

There is no way in hell this movie is not good. This movie carries you through a range of emotions...it will make you laugh, cry, get scared, and it will even make you gasp at some actions of some characters. Definitely a character driven movie. The ending suspends time a bit and so that maybe the only flaw in the storytelling which was a simple story...nothing that could confuse anyone. unless you want to read all the info on each character which some people with ADD may do. You got to be crazy not to enjoy Suicide Squad. If you are take your meds before watching. LOL. The critics are mad hatters man! Expand

Despite the fact that the film is another bridge to the "Justice League", it is possible to watch without watching "Man of Steel" and "Batman V Superman: dawn of justice" or knowledge of comics. In the tape is as vulgar humor and ordinary. Most of the humor is built on the relationship between the characters and their statuses. Part of the heroes of bilateral (just kidding about the Enchantress), what you don't know which side prevails now. Personally, I say Captain boomerang like more than the original. Katana very few were significant, compared to other characters. El Diablo does not use certain abilities, which could play an important role. New the Joker even appears a little (about one-third of the film), but it will show itself more. Perhaps a scene after the credits hints at a solo Batman, but that's just my guess. The film has both humor and a typical style of DC Comics. It looks all natural, but if to compare with "Green Lantern" (2011) , so this is a masterpiece. Should go to fans, fans of fighters and humor. And there's the Bible, the [very bad word], uselock. Action there on top. Entertainment is clearly not necessary. In addition to the Boomerang, the film looks much better Amanda Waller: she's not fat **** like in the old series, but not a young special agent. It is a government puppet. Cold-blooded and sensible. Well, Deadshot is a typical will Smith, but this is clearly not a minus Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The third installment in the DCEU proved it's worth (For DC Fans), beating both its predecessors by miles. It's becoming a usual thing for me seeing Bad Reviews for DCEU movies, and i won't be surprised if the same scenario happens with the WW movie. I haven't believed the conspiracy theory that Disney pay critics to say bad stuff about WB movies but now the thought is bouncing in my head, anyway lets get on with the review.

Pro's

1.The acting in Suicide Squad was spot on, Will Smith was my highlight performance of the movie,perfect as Deadshot, managing to capture both aspects of the character, the hit-man and the Father. Margrot Robbie was just amazing as Harley Quinn, and i'm really excited about what DC will do with her if she gets a solo movie. Viola Davis as Amanda Waller just steals the show every time she is on screen.

2. The story was good, as it really made all members of the squad interact with each other in so many ways, relating both to their Criminal lives and their personal ones.

3. The Action sequences are very good, especially the ones having Deadshot in them.
Con's:

1.The movie was too predictable,when i enter a movie i wanna be curious about whats gonna happen later in the movie, but with Suicide Squad i really didn't find that, as the ending was very predictable.

2.Too little screen time for the Joker.I really find it annoying that they didn't give much screen time for the Joker, one of the reasons why i wanted to see this movie was because of the Joker, as i wanted to see if Jared Letos performance could top or equal that of Heath Ledger's performance, but i really couldn't as i wasn't shown enough of him to make my overall verdict about him.

3.Very Weak villain, as you saw in most of the trailers and the large media campaign WB gave to this movie, they focus very little about the villain. The final showdown between the Squad and the bad guy wasn't that interesting, as the villain was defeated very easily.

Overall Verdict: It's a good movie and is definitely worth your time, it is better by miles than Man of Steel and Batman V Superman. The movie could have had a better villain, more screen time for the joker, but all in all it is a good movie and i am certain most DC fans will like it.

Don't believe all the haters. While not a masterpiece it's still fun. Yes the main villain isn't that good and some of the comedy seems a bit forced but if you go in not wanting to hate it I think you'll enjoy it.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don't understand the negative reviews. I found this movie to be great. The highlight is definitely the characters. Harley Quinn was funny, quirky, crazy, and even had a few emotional moments. She had a good backstory and development and that made you quickly fall in love with her character. Deadshot was another favorite, with a very fleshed out character arc and backstory, he was very easy to relate to and was able to flawlessly execute being complex and funny at once. El Diablo was very interesting, his powers were very impressive to see and his development/backstory definitely made him feel real and the audience could connect with him very easily. Killer Croc and Katana were a bit underdeveloped but nonetheless badass, they didn't get much screen time or speaking but were good additions to action scenes. Boomerang was somewhat comic relief, but it worked well for him and I found his character very likable and funny. And the Joker!! He didn't get a lot of screen time which actually disappointed me, but he was amazing. He wasn't Heath Ledger, so don't go into this movie expecting him to be that. He was a very different take on the Joker, I would say more like a gangster Jack Nicholson. But he stole every scene he was in and perfectly encapsulated a crazy crime lord, he was probably the most intimidating Joker we've seen thus far. And his relationship with Harley Quinn roped me in straight away, I just loved seeing them together. Viola Davis/Amanda Waller was fantastic, she shone in all her scenes. She was tough, smart, hard to read, strong, and intimating and she amazed me. Enchantress was a super cool villain, I loved her original costume but felt that the second costume looked a bit tacky. Her plan was simple and straightforward, which worked well. She doesn't hold a candle to the Joker or Lex Luthor or Bane or Zodd or any other iconic DC villain, but she is a solid character. She had a clear plan, albeit a fairly thin one. She is in the same category as villains such as Thanos, Yellowjacket, Ultron or Red Skull, as in she works for her movie and is entertaining to watch, but not the most developed or interesting stand alone character. I loved the feel of the movie, combining the grittiness of Batman with the fun of Deadpool, giving the exact tone a comic book movie should have. The music, colors, visuals, etc. all worked really well in this aspect. It had a great mixture of seriousness and playfulness and I think it was well balanced in this respect. I didn't notice any pacing or editing issues when I was watching it and I don't really think most casual moviegoers would either, but hardcore movie fans/critics may have a problem with this. Overall, a worthy additions to the DCEU, a very fun, gritty, exciting, hilarious and entertaining movie that I thoroughly enjoyed and would highly recommend. Expand

Will Smith as Deadshot and Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn is perfect, as for the Joker, he did an amazing job, would have loved to see him more on screen though, Leto also admits a lot of the scenes (starring him) didn't make it to the final cut. Therefor I'm eager to see those scenes in an extended edition of Suicide Squad.

And seeing the role how there finally interconnecting there Universe's movies like Marvel has had much success with has me at the edge of my seat waiting to see the sequels if there are any. Last but least I was skeptical that Jared Leto could fill the space that Heath Ledger once filled with as much passion. Yet I found myself in awe of his depiction of the Joker and he OWNED IT. This Movie over all was AMAZING I look forward to watching it a few more times. It was so good hopefully DC Komics continues to follow this Trend these last few Superman's and Batman & Superman have me glad to see some serious Quality product coming out of those Comics. Expand

She nailed it, as expected. Will Smith as Deadshot was awesome. He fits so much into the character... But the thing I liked the most about this film was THE JOKER. What a badass gangsta Joker!!! I loved every second of him. I'm really mad about most of the Joker' scenes were cut (according to Jared Leto). But the movie as a whole wasn't so good. That was because of a predictible plot and a main villain that I personally thought was lame. Also, I think it would've been better if Rick Flag didn't appear in the movie, The squad felt so limited.... I wanted them to have more freedom! I'm putting a 10 because of all the critics saying this movie deserves a 0. It doesn't. For me it's an 8.
Finally, I want to say that I can't wait for the Blu-Ray unlimited edition of this movie to come out. I want to see all the cut scenes because I'm pretty sure the movie will be way better.

I hate when the protagonist is revealed to be fraud only to be redeemed. I hate when from the beginning I know by what methods the antagonist will be defeated. And I hate when movies exposition is out of place not even trying. And I hate when I leave cinema and I cannot quote and vivaciously describe my favorite scenes. This move has not let me down on either of these points.

I liked most of the characters, not because they were likable per se, but because they were believable. Their main motivations were clear and their personalities more or less remained consistent, which is pleasantly refreshing. I will add here Joker, Jared Leto's Joker will not be remembered as best, but for me he will be the only Joker that I can imagine could exist, which made him extremely intimidating, I applaud that.

Effects overall are on the better side, little plagued by the style of man of steal, but that is up to individual tastes.

Grittiness - YES YES thousand times yes, finally a movie where the darkness is not represented by momentary weakness of main character. The movie was dark, surprisingly lot and while the grimness of situation was acknowledged, and just like sometimes in real life when kicked down one time too much, you just laugh at the ridiculousness of it all. which brings me to

Humor - The humor of the movie comes from absurdity and contrast. Not from forced gags and jokes. This is my kind of humor, I enjoyed it tremendously.

This movie is not for everyone, It is like a AAA budgeted mix of styles somewhere between Pitch Black and Bad Santa with much better actors and plot.

The plotThis was one of the funnest CBM's I've watched in years, up there with Deadpool! This film had such an eclectic mix of music, acting and editing that it was always switching up expectations on the fly which I think was fantastic. The plot though cliche at times was refreshing to follow as it had a simple premise which was condensed into 120 mins that was easy to digest.

The cast worked together flawlessly, with them embracing each other as a family as the story went on and everyone's acting chops were on point! I also find it great that the DCEU continues to show that there are real consequences in their world with civilians seen hurt/evacuated, military lending support to our villains (or heroes) and an intriguing political view on the rise of the metahumans and others alike (just enriches the universe even more).

I really hope they continue the story of the Suicide Squad sometime soon and that this isn't their only time to shine. So much potential, so many more possible squad members, missions and crazy ass situations to see! If you're a fan of action and CBM's, don't let the negative critical views sway you, take the leap and judge for yourself, I think you won't be as disappointed as you expect yourself to be.

They just can't let their directors and writers make something without giving in to the reaction to hack it to pieces. (Idiots!)

Margot Robbie steals every scene she is in as Harley Quinn. Jared Leto's Joker shines, is completely unique, and leaves you wanting more, partly because of being criminally underused. Will Smith doesn't steamroll over others, despite being the biggest star in the film.

Batman is used well, as is Cara Delevingne's Enchantress, even if she could have used more screen time and back story. Amanda Waller, played by Viola Davis, is brilliant. Jai Courtney, Joel Kinnaman, and Jay Hernandez also give solid performances. It's a shame we didn't get to see Ayer's version. I'm betting these solid actors would have only given us more awesomeness.

Go see it in theaters. It's well worth it. It's not a perfect film, (The music is a tad overdone) but the performances, action, and heart soar.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After reading all the critical reviews of "Suicide Squad," I'd gone in expecting the movie to be horrible. What I got instead was a comic book brought to life. I enjoyed the pacing of the movie, I loved the characters, and Margot Robbie nailed the Harley Quinn role.

It would be utterly impossible to give every character equal screen time, but that's OK. While it is an ensemble cast, the film focuses on two or three characters. It's true that there are multiple members of the squad, but Deadshot, Harley and Diablo get the attention because they have the most to do with the third act.

Funny, action-packed and memorable, "Suicide Squad" was a damn good time. Anyone who expected a Christopher Nolan-esque dramafest from an action/comedy about a team of bad guys culled from a variety of comic books should maybe lighten up a little.

Amanda Waller and Harley Quinn were just a joy to watch, so was the interaction between the squad. This isn't a mind blowing universe building movie, but it did expand on the DCCU, and it did it well. I feel like this did a better job of showing/explaining tensions between the US government and meta humans better than BvS, and I can see this film tying into the future of DC heroes and their relationship with the various governments and people of the world nicely. But the editing was choppy, and although the soundtrack is great there were moments where the music fit the scene perfect, but really the flow of the film. I feel like a lot of this movie was cut, I didn't really notice that much while watching the film but it did hit me thinking back on it how obvious that was that there are pieces missing. The highs in this film are really high, some of the low moments felt off, but they didn't throw me off the high I was on. I have my odd complaints about various characters but nothing that stopped the show for me, mostly just I wanted to see certain things stick a little closer to the comics, but again nothing that stopped my enjoyment of the film. Both the plot and main villain are a very average comic book movie plot and villian, it's not too complicated or mind blowing but it's right for this genre and film. It's the kind of plot and villain you'd likely see in any of the Marvel films, standard comic book movie **** (which is why I can't wait for the solo Batman film, he's got all the good villians in his rouges gallery!). Amanda Wallers characterization was perfect for this universe, so was Harley, Deadshot, and yeah even this version of Joker is perfect for this universe. Though I do question Joker and Harleys relationship in this film, it's again, not a show stopper. I wanted to give this movie an eight or nine because it is such a fun film, and I loved finally seeing Harley on the big screen played by such a talented actress but the editing and missing pieces mean it's an seven for me. I still highly, highly recommend seeing it one of the only films I truly enjoyed seeing this year! Expand

It is among my favorite movies, the only real issue I have with the movie is the Joker. He is poorly done, a mix between Heath Ledger, and Jack Nicholson's Joker may sound good on paper but falls lackluster in actual appearances. Although his role in the film is good, the acting, looks, and portrayal of the character is all around poorly done. Also huge plus on diversity in the film , with the White, Asian, Black, Latino, Australian, Psychopathic, Clown, and Crocodile people even if they are portrayed in a poor light (criminals and serial killers).

I don't understand all the hate it is getting as it is a really good movie. I expect stupidity from critics as they don't act like a normal person but act superior. Critics also review based on biases such as being liberal or being against superhero films. I believe the hate from people is based in overhyping the film thinking it will be terminator 2 or something.

If anything, I went into this with allot of hope. Came out a bit underwhelmed.

Robbie really steals the show with spot on portrayal of Harley Quin. Smith does an excellent job as Deadshot, but he is a bit too high profile an actor and its really hard to see past that, if he had worn the mask more, it would have been perfect. Davis also does a kick@$$ job as Waller. As for the rest of the cast, forgettable. Ultimately the Squad is crowded with too many characters and would have been better with a team of 4 or less.

Joker is barely in the movie. Nothing more than a plot device for Quin's backstory. A shame as it clearly shows that Leto was going all out. Understandable why he's upset how much his character was cut from the movie, especially considering all the hype about his Joker. A wasted opportunity since he is given too little time to truly shine.

One real flaw was that the plot has barely any buildup. It really just goes straight from introductions to the action with little filler to help build up the characters, relying perhaps too much on familiarity with the characters. However, it does have a few moments that redeem it closer to the end of the movie.

Overall:
Suicide Squad is a fun movie, and one of the better DCU movies to date. Yet, I feel like it could have done more and should have taken more risks.

Side Note:
I really hope we see more of Leto's Joker in the Batman solo film. More Harley as well.

I expected a similar disaster..but aside from a shaky start with a few too many flashbacks, I was rewarded with a can of enjoyable blockbuster action with an offbeat superhero movie that actually had a few good comedic moments that genuinely made me laugh out loud. I'm going to say I wasn't really blown away by Leto as the Joker, even though I love him in other roles and when he's singing in his band, but don't get it twisted, this isn't the next Nolan Batman series, but it was never meant to be, it's a fun slightly messy story about misfits who don't really mesh well with everyday society and does well in telling that story.

From start to finish the pace was fast. This movie had minimal downtime and felt like a constant action scene. The characters were great, Harley was awesome. Smith made Deadshot a fun character and added the Smith emotion. The Joker, as some complained was not in the film enough, served his purpose. In short, a fun and good film. Much better than Batman VS Superman and does not merit the horrid harsh criticism. Go see this film. You will enjoy it. Expand

One note though FFS please whoever reads this get rid of the Joker as he is useless without any real character. Boring and stupid.

(You can find my review for that film here as well). My issues with Batman v Superman was largely the characterization of the characters Batman and Superman. It took itself too seriously that it really was a slog to watch. I am glad to say I enjoyed my time with Suicide Squad. Its not a perfect film by any means but it had a sense of fun about it.

The comparisons to Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy are inescapable. Both films feature a rag tag band of misfits who have to team up to win the day. While I do think Guardians handled it better given how niche the property is, Suicide Squad manages to handle its larger cast of characters/team fairly well.

The film does take its time to set up the backstories for each of the members which is nice to see. The way each member is presented has a nice bit of comic book flair and a distinct visual style. Take Jai Courtney's Captain Boomerang for instance. It gives you a rundown of his stats and even lists his 'fetishes' which I won't spoil here.

The cast was pretty solid. Will Smith plays a great part as Deadshot and its nice to see how his arc plays out. He certainly has more character development than some of the others though they too feel pretty well fleshed out like Diablo for instance. Margot Robbie is perfect as Harley Quinn. Viola Davis as Amanda Waller is great as well. Her performance gives that character a bit of an intimidating presence. Its that presence that sells her as a character you wouldn't want to cross.

As seen in the trailers Joker is in the movie though some may be disappointed as his screen-time is somewhat limited. This is a different Joker than we are used to seeing. He is more of a mob boss than Ledger's more psychological take on the character.

The film has some pacing issues and the brakes are quickly applied to the plot in the lead up to the final act. This scene does give a bit more exposition and background for certain characters (Diablo in particular). It does serve as a catalyst for bringing the 'team' closer together though. I also had the impression the film relies on music a bit too much. While Guardians used some groovy music effectively, Suicide Squad's music selection felt haphazard.

One of the things I disliked is that Suicide Squad continues the trend of using Superman as a plot device rather than a character. Even in the trailers they pose the question "What if Superman ripped off the roof of the white house?" I will say I was glad to see that they mentioned his morals. Its just a shame that the previous divisive film BvS painted a different picture. But I digress. I feel Suicide Squad is a step forward for the DCEU and one that DC fans will enjoy (even if critics don't) I know I did.

Yeah the villain weren't really good, but this movie wasn't about them. It was about bad guys doing good things, because they are not only the bad guys, but human beings too(more or less). Margot Robbie was great as Harley, Will Smith nailed Deadshot. Even Boomerang was quite enjoyable. And the whole chemistry between "skwad". I really liked El Diablo story. Only actor I didn't like was Cara Delevingne, as June Moone, that acting was quite awkward for me. In summary, movie is very enjoyable and I don't get all the hate. Expand

I read comics and not just DC or Marvel, but a wide array of titles, I'm not a fanboy. The movie had heart, it was better than BvS in that it didn't take it self to serious, it made you care about people you shouldn't. There were strong performances by the the leads and co-stars, Viola Davis' Amanda Waller was just scary, Jared Leto's Joker was one we haven't seen on screen, a mob boss with real henchmen it reminds me of Brian Azzarello's take on the character. Margo Robbie's Harley Quinn was spot on crazy and capable, her flirting with Will Smith's Deadshot was organic. Will Smith kept Floyd Lawton from being corny, he loves his daughter but is still an assassin. The break out performance came from Jay Hernandez as Diablo, I hope we see more of him. Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Killer Croc didn't get enough lines, but he embodied his role. Katana was a wasted opportunity, she seemed to be just a place holder at times, otherwise decent acting by Karen Fukahara and Jai Courtney was funny as Boomerang. The music and soundtrack were a highlight, the parts that didn't work were Slipknot, some of the interaction between Rick Flagg and Enchantress and one or two other scenes without the stars. I'm glad I didn't listen to the professional critics, their not the regular movie going public. Expand

Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes give it an average score of about 4/10. Audiences say it's fun, escapist fare, that the characters are likeable in their unfriendliness, and that they can't wait to see more. Their scores on MC and RT average about 7/10. What does that tell you?

Yes, the movie has problems: In some scenes, too much happens at once, resulting in a dizzying back-and-forth that even the cameras can't keep up with. Others will escape non-fans and result in a "Huh?" reaction. The big-bang moments won't hold up well on TV. There's at least one cliche "Well, we had to prove what we said was actually true" moment. The climax is a bit of a letdown.

But there are highlights: Will Smith (Deadshot), Margot Robbie (Harley Quinn) and Viola Davis (Amanda Waller) are spot-on. Jered Leto (Joker) meshes perfectly with Robbie, setting up a Joker/Harley "Bonnie & Clyde"-type film. Karen Fukuhara (Katana) looks great with a sword and deserves an origin movie of her own. You actually care about what happens to the gang of expendables, good or bad -- except, maybe, for the lone "good guy," Rick Flag (an underwritten Joel Kinnaman). The movie stays faithful to the original "Suicide Squad" comic book of the 1980s.

Bottom line, it's your typical lead-in movie. Remember: People weren't thrilled with the first "X-men" or original series "Star Trek" films, either.

The movie is like an good graphic novel. Not a graphic novel as memorable as V for Vendetta or Watchmen per se, but as interesting as Year One of DC's Injustice.

Some of the quick pacing and the cuts can be attributed to the panel-by-panel structure of a comic book (or to poor movie-making, though I would advise against the trope of "a movie should be like this, or that" while promoting the experience of a different type of motion picture because different styles should be supported and a greater variety is always better in terms of art).

Most of the characters were kind of bland (but not bad, just not that great) except a few who were brilliant in a very unique way. Other than this I wouldn't like to spoil.

The movie is far from great but I found that it moved me in ways that most other superhero movies don't and also it's not that light of a movie. It was sick when needed, sad when needed, clear when needed, silly, action-y and over the top sometimes but each sequence could have gone longer since the beginning of the movie is like a marathon of different trailers.

I liked it and expect to enjoy an extended version if possible. I hope you guys could enjoy it as well.

If you happen to a person that thinks the plot has holes, you're the one with holes; in your brain.

The way the music is combined with the characters was inspired and appropro. Director Mayer never spoon fed the viewer; he gave just enough info on the characters to have the viewer enjoy the show and let the superb cast 'act' their angst and backgrounds. And they did it masterfully.

The movie was an adrenaline rush and to top it off, it was loaded with multiple themes on the topics of the nature of good, bad and evil. There is sooooomuch to love about this movie and I could spend pages describing the genius of the editing and juxtaposing of scene over scene over musical score over comic book Easter egg.

An Easy 9/10.
