Its a great movie to have at least more than 7.5 rating, if i compare it with other movies with similar rating. Critics should have rated with objectivity not by comparing.

Comparison with Deadpool is the worst funny thing, as it was an R rated movie and has freedom for many things to execute. Being a pg-13 many good scenes were removed which would make more sense of the movie. And Harley Quinn and Joker's chemistry is refreshing and in someway better than animated series. Jokes are funny. The team and Margot Robbie re crafted the character and expressed her emotions better than the series.

I love marvel and there's nothing to compare between them on a vertical scale.

Gave this movie a 10 because it deserves it. Marvel fan boy brigade is out in full force giving 0's and 1's because it's a DC film and they're envious. How much is Marvel paying them?

Not a perfect movie but not the gutter trash critics seem to think it is. Really a solid 7/10 not the perfect ten i gave it, but i wanted to balance out the scores in some small way.

Action: fun and occasionally very memorable like any number of kick-A deadshot scenes.

Comedy: admittedly, spoiled by the trailers

Cinematography: I'm no expert, but some of it fell flat when it was trying to be flashy and some of it rocked. But too close up sometimes

characters: Best part about the movie, nuff said, find out for yourself.

Writing: not stellar but certainly not cringe-worthy often enough to matter.

Performances: the other best part about the movie. Will smith kills and so does margo robbie. Jered Ledo was ok, i can respect his take even if it's not my favorite.

Villains: One wasted villain, one perfect villain and one that surprised me. No spoilers.

was this movie amazing? not quiet. Did i have fun? hell yes. Would i see it again? on DVD for sure. should you go see it? Absolutely. Even if it's not groundbreaking, it's a good time and part of an intriguing new cinematic universe.

I mean, there were critics saying that it was worse than Fantastic 4 and that movie's top tier garbage let me say, but those critics went way overboard with the criticism on Suicide Squad, like waaay overboard.

The movie could of done a little better with the plot and with a little less pop songs with lyrics but it was fun and thus worth a watch. Effects were amazing, especially the Enchantress character, she looked so good. Leto's Joker is not Ledger's, that is for sure, but it was great in its own way and his dynamic with Harley was so interesting I just wanted to see more of those 2 together. Robbie is Harley Quinn, she owns that character and the actress that played Amanda Waller too. Will Smith on the other hand, he wasn't Deadshot, he was Will Smith but it wasn't too distracting. The rest of the cast didn't have much screen time but they all their moment even if was just for an instant.

All I hope now is for the next Batman movie the main villains to be the Joker and Harley, I just want more of those 2. I need it!

SO they need to fix that. But even so. This movie was still extremely fun to watch and I can't wait to buy it and Highly recommend going to watch it. Just a normal family looking for a little comic geek of a movie and got it.

Oh. Olivia who plays Amanda Waller. is THE MOST accurate of all. She is down right scary..

The second act is so confusing I'm calling it the muddle act. The third act is great as all the subplots pay-off and the characters show how in this film there's no black & white, only shades of grey. This film is also a direct sequel to Batman v Superman. Given the reviews on that one I understand how that wasn't part of the marketing strategy. This film rewards fans of that film with some great moments that will pay off in the Justice League film. I think the reviewers who gave Batman v Superman bad reviews felt obligated to do the same for this film since it's part of the shared universe. I no longer care what the reviewers have to say about the DC films, as a whole they've clearly lost their objectivity and suffer from superhero fatigue. I think they're afraid that if Marvel and DC both have successful movie universes that they'll be spending most of their time reviewing superhero films. Well that ship has sailed. Suicide is going to set box office records and I personally look forward to the Suicide Squad spin-offs and sequels. Enjoy the film and be sure not to miss the post credits scene. Expand

The DCEU gets a little bit bigger. Suicide Squad is used to show off a different side of WB's cinematic universe. One with a little more style, humor, and crazy flair than what we've previously seen with the likes of MoS and BvS.

This new vibe doesn't wildly change things though. The focus may be on the villains this time around, but this is your standard, save the world from destruction, superhero affair. The plot is incredibly familiar. A big, overpowered baddie is building a world ending device. Only this time it isn't the heroes going in to save the day, it's other bad guys. Naturally, manipulation by politicians is what gets these characters to cooperate. There's some stuff about how these characters are just tools to the people in power. That the politicians are just as heartless as the villains. It adds a little bit more depth and expands the scale of the universe, but it's never used to any great effect here. Nothing is really said.

Despite it's plot shortcomings, it's the characters and their action scenes that keep things going. Not all of the villains get the attention they deserve, but the ones that do are brought to life pretty well. Margot Robbie doesn't disappoint as Harley and Will Smith is a good Deadshot even if he doesn't break away from his typical smart aleck role. Joel Kinnaman is equally great as the leader of the group, Rick Flagg. I also have to give special praise to Jai Courtney. I haven't liked that dude since Spartacus. He's just stunk up every movie he's been in. Not here though. He's actually one of the best. Loved his Captain Boomerang. The best character and performance award goes to Jay Hernandez though. He's the heart and soul of the movie.

Everyone else is kind of underused. Especially Viola Davis. Such a fantastic actress shouldn't be limited to a supporting role like that. There's also not enough Killer Croc. The only performance that disappointed me here was Jared Leto. Although that might not be entirely his fault. He may actually be a great Joker. He just isn't given much to do here and what he is given to do isn't great.

Stylistically he looks to gaudy. The cartoony, yet gangsterish look they gave him doesn't work. His laugh is weak and he does the weird snorting, growl thing that just isn't appealing. I should probably wait to reserve judgment until he's actually really utilized in the universe, but this is not a good introduction to this new interpretation of the Joker. This first impression didn't go well and may be just as controversial with fans as Eisenberg's Lex Luther.

The action in the movie is entertaining. A lot of punching, shooting, explosions, and all around villainy action. Each characters abilities are shown off well. Doesn't break any new ground, but is entertaining nonetheless.

The style is a big part of the film. At times it's light, bubbly and oh so sadistic with it's visuals and humor. Totally feels like a movie about the bad guys. The soundtrack is awesome and used perfectly. Admittedly some of this stuff can get cheesy and a lot of it ends up ditched early on in favor of standard superhero flick affair, but what's here is mostly likable.

It's just a movie about watching the bad guys be bad guys while doing good guy stuff. It doesn't save the DCEU and falls short in a lot of areas. However if you just come for the characters and to have fun then you can still enjoy this. The DCEU might still be in trouble, but I appreciate seeing the style and humor of Suicide Squad attempting to bring something different to it. I may have wanted a better movie, but the cast and their dedication to doing the best darn job they can with the characters pulled me in. It's not perfect, but I still had some fun.

Ike Barinholtz added some great comedy. Plot is a little weak, and it would have been better if they had a bad guy before they made the play to put the team together. Cameo by Batman was fine. Flash's costume looked weak, hopefully they change it before the Justice League movie. Expand

That statement itself proves this movie deserves more recognition. Critics are totally dissecting it, overthinking every scene. This movie may not be "The Best Superhero Movie", but if you watch it and soak everything in as a whole, maybe pretend Tarantino directed then this movie is a blast, it's witty, and doesn't take itself too seriously. Just like the comics. Jared Leto even attempting to fill the shoes of Heath Ledger is a MAJOR task all in itself, and I think he did a great job. Watch a batman animated series episode, Leto took all of Joker's essence and amplified it in a twisted mental way, while Ledger was more human and serious. I think all the actors just had fun in the film, as did I watching it. If you expected this to be anything like The Dark Knight or have a serious tone in my opinion it did a better job than Batman V Superman did, and is an all around fun time. This will be a cult classic, and while not the smartest move DC could have made, it sure made a FUN move. This was new territory for DC cinematic universe, and I was pleasantly surprised. Expand

Some of the ensemble cast doesn't do much. Perhaps the worst sin, a couple of characters get "reigned in" for the PG 13 rating. On the other hand, this movie has enough awesome in it to be the 3rd best comic book movie of the year (in my opinion). Behind Deadpool and Captain America 2. There is plenty to enjoy about it, and its a memorable movie. Will Smith is back in fine form. Its not some sedate feel good, oscar bate story this time. He brings the swagger that we haven't seen in a long time. Though he hijacks the deadshot character, its probably worth it, and he gives an enjoyable performance. Margot Robbie does a great Harley Quin, though she gets a bit less crazy towards the end. An almost epic performance on her part. Cara Delevingne does a great job playing the Enchantress+ whatever the human part of that was called.The rest of the cast did a suitably good job.
The plot is OK. Hate to say it but the animated suicide squad movies do a better job there. There is a camaraderie and empathy they build at one point is an off-putting stretch. They are bad guys. Not all bad, sure, but worse than that.
Jared Leto gave us a different joker from what we've seen before. It fits the hyper stylized universe. Not my favorite. Not bad really either. Just a change. Less menacing, more over the top street thug.
Overall I felt like I was watching an early attempt at an awesome film. And it had all the ingredients to be awesome. They just need to work a few bugs out first. Its a big step up for this studio following Batman vs Superman.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I enjoyed this movie. It had some plot holes but overall deserves a watch. Now the Joker's character is absolutely pathetic! Jared Leto's version of one of the most iconic villians in history..is just hilarious. Not in a good way. He was way too calm for this role, and his acting was one of the fakest i've ever seen. What i'm asking is - where were all the heroes during all that **** that was going on? Also - what is all this **** with samsung? So Deadshot can hit a fly with his gun, but can't take away a **** phone from a lady? Also whats up with all that rich and immortal Joker? How the hell he survived? Slipknot's death was also hilarious. Okay, enough. I liked it. Expand

Deadshot, Harley, Killer Croc, and El Diablo were on point. Their performances were a pleasure to watch, and I felt they really connected with their characters. The flashbacks that introduced each character were short but they surely gave you the pieces you needed to follow the story. As an action movie, I though it was really good. However, there were some minor flaws. The first of these is the Joker's screen time. I really enjoyed Leto's take, but I felt that he wasn't fleshed out as we needed. Still, the little we saw was above average, surpassing Nicholson's but not quite getting to Ledger's. Another flaw, imo, is the small screentime for Katana and the use of Captain Boomerang. If he hadn't been invited, the gang of baddies wouldn't have missed anything. However, these flaws I mentioned do not outweigh, imo, the fact that this is a good action movie. I just hope that they release an extended edition because some scenes felt as if they needed extra screen time. And we all saw the trailers, so I hope they deliver properly when the DVD/BluRay comes out. Overall: 8/10 Expand

The plot is...well it is not awful, it is just the classic story where some guys want to conquer the world by killing people and turning them into their army. That becomes the reason for some other guys to be gathered so that the world could be saved. The movie also has some of those illogical, badly explained moments, or "holes in the plot", that you'll see in many superhero and sci-fi movies. Some characters don't get enough attention and screen time. BUT at least the characters don't defeat their enemies too easily as they did in Star Trek: Beyond, and the actors take their roles seriously and play them quite well. The soundtrack of Suicide Squad is nice. The costumes are pretty cool. Even though the plot is not the best, the whole movie is action-packed and is definitely not boring. So overall, an imperfect, but fun to watch movie, especially if you are a teenager, and you came with friends. Expand

Firstly the acting and characters were amazing especially Amanda Waller, Deadshot and Harley Quinn. Captain Boomerang was also great, Killer Croc, El Diablo, Katana were also good. The Joker was pretty good but needed more screen time. Some of the action was great and some of it was OK, the cameos were fantastic and made me wanting more. There were plenty of funny moments along the way so it never felt dull.

The editing was by far the weakest point, everything just felt out of whack, you can tell scenes were cut from the movie (thanks to WB). The story was average and felt generic. The villain was meh and uninteresting.

There is an amazing movie in here somewhere but just didn't show up.

In short it is the kind of hit or miss movies. Short introduction: The Suicide Squad in DC comics is a bunch of criminals that is hired via brain bombs for a black ops government agency lead by Amanda Waller. They can reduce their sentences that way (Ever wondered why they are so often out of prison again in addition to good lawyers). Amanda Waller is a force to be recognized and made even Batman stand down a few times. She is smart, capable and ruthless. When you want things to get done she is the top choice. Here they transferred the concept into a movie. Amanda Waller wanted to create a team that can handle superpowered beings. She argued what when the next Superman was evil they need someone who stops him. While a complaint was they picked a team that could not stand a chance against Supes it could be a small scale test (Before they use stronger people). While it mostly worked it has its weaknesses and strengths. Lets start with the positives: The cast. I think Margot Robbie nailed Harley Quinn, Will Smith is a great Deathshot and Viola Davis is a good Amanda Waller. The other actors deliver and I will point out Jay Hernandez as El Diablo for his great performance. For the rest they had lesser screentime but did the best with it. The action scenes are done well and I enjoyed the final showdown. The story is O.K. but a bit underwhealming. Could done more with this IP. Visuals and effects are also good. The soundtrack is great but depends on preferences. Ben Affleck as Batman is O.K but was done for marketing. Finally the humor is great. The negatives are: Amanda Waller is less competent and capable as in the comics. The villain is a bit weak and too much cliche. They did more with her character in the comics. The Joker scenes and style are not that great (According to some actors there was far better material that was cut out of the movie). Some parts of the story are unbelievable. They could have done more with the characters in general. Overall an enjoyable movie that I would still recommend. DC did a lot worse and this is rewatchable if not more. Bonus reommendation: The animated Suicide Squad Assault on Arkham is better and should / could be used as blueprint. Expand

There were a lot of great performances by some great actors and it was fun to see the "bad guys" come together for the sake of saving humanity. Stand out performances were the Harley Quinn, Joker and Dead Shot characters. No, this ain't your mother's superhero movie.

The chaotic style of this movie appeared to have been a turn off for a lot of people, and the ratings suffered because of this. II think this stylistic approach was an intentional attempt to give the viewer a glimpse into the minds of the characters themselves. Some of them were seriously deranged after all. I actually liked it myself and it drove that point home for me.

Espresso anyone?

The Joker (Jared Leto) and Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie) scenes are perfect and some are straight from the comics. It's just unfortunate that some actors even at their best have such a weak plot to work with.

The Joker (Jared Leto) and Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie) scenes are perfect and some are straight from the comics. It's just unfortunate that some actors even at their best have such a weak plot to work with.
The villain is like something from a Mummy movie. While the heroes/villains feel out of place fighting her zombie like minions. Even Jai Courtney showing he can do more than play a stiff hero in Die Hard 5 or Terminator Genisys is wasted in this movie.
I mean the actors make a lot of effort to be entertaining and are in good form. They deserved better than shooting at supernatural creatures or in Harley's case hitting them with bats. Then drinking at a bar just because the script called for a scene where they all bond and learn about each other more.
When you finally get to hear Harley Quinn saying Mr. J. or Pudding on the big screen for the first time. The movie really deserved a better story than Suicide Squad: Zombie Hunters. They can skip the sequel and just give us hopefully Harley Quinn and Joker in a good Batman film together.
Speaking of Batman, Suicide Squad could have used more Batman with Joker as the villain. Which is what actually makes the animated film Batman: Assault on Gotham much superior to this film. You had Suicide Squad assembled to stop the Joker from detonating a bomb. With much more Batman as well. Now that's a live action Suicide Squad film I wish this was.

Suicide Squad is a film that I think is ok. Not good, not bad, just ok. I think it had a lot of good points and a lot of bad points though I am not sure which one outweighs the other. I have very similar thoughts to this as I do to BatmanSuicide Squad is a film that I think is ok. Not good, not bad, just ok. I think it had a lot of good points and a lot of bad points though I am not sure which one outweighs the other. I have very similar thoughts to this as I do to Batman v Superman. The real strengths, however, are Harley Quinn and Amander Waller who I think were both perfectly captured in this film. It doesn’t spend too much time building up The Justice League movie and told its own plot in a decent way, it just missed the mark on a few occasions, most notably in the fact that there was not nearly enough of the Joker in this film, despite how he had been built up in trailers. If you are a fan of the comics, I would say give it a go although I would sooner recommend seeing Batman Assault on Arkham which is a film that did a much better job with the Suicide Squad. General movie goers and fans of Batman v Superman should probably check it out although I would urge a word of caution, this film is rated 15 for a reason, this is not a film for little kids. It’s other big weakness is the fact that the film is incredibly slow initially and doesn’t pick up the pace until the last minute mark and it still doesn’t feel like there is much back story to this DC Universe, but I think that will be fixed in time.

There was no boring parts in the film and as a whole, the experience was above satisfying. Margot Robbie fitted the role perfectly and she was hotter than ever. Jared Leto was good as the joker and it was interesting seeing a new joker. Will Smith was surprisingly good as Deadshot and Joel Kinnaman really shined in this movie. Some other great performances were Cara Delevigne and Jai Courtney. The humor really worked in this DC film and some scenes were probably the best I have ever seen in a superhero film. Also, the music was very fitting in this film. However, the film did have some cons that I did notice. First of all, the trailers gave away much of the film's greatness and some of the good scenes. The film overall was a bit too long, although I liked all of the scenes. However my major problem, which I think is everyone's problem, is the anticipation of the Joker. Story-wise, this film was a mess. The Joker felt like an unnecessary character and just a cash grab. He wasn't essential to this film and the film had way too many characters. Now that's not a problem for me, but when they focus on some characters other than others, that's a problem. The ending wasn't surprising and it was insanely guessable. But, it's a fun movie that teens and adult superhero fans would love to see again. Suicide Squad was definitely worth the IMAX 3D price and it was fun, so I'm looking forward to a sequel. For reference, this was on par with Batman Vs. Superman. (94/100) Expand

Yes, but it certainly had some great problems. Suicide Squad is directed David Ayer who directed Fury, Sabotage, and End of Watch, and stars Will Smith, Margot Robbie, Jared Leto, Jai Courtney, Viola Davis, Scott Eastwood, Joel Kinnaman, Common, Jay Hernandez, Adam Beach, and Ben Affleck. That cast may look convincing but don't be fooled, half of the cast were great while the other half crashed and burned. My expectations that I had going to see this film was that Will Smith had to be spot on, just like the trailers, there had to be awesome music in it, and Jared Leto had to at least be better than Jack Nicholson. Most of them were met, but one didn't that really became a big problem for me, Jared Leto was so bad, at first I didn't know what to think of him and immediately that meant I had to go see it again to get a better opinion, it only made it worse and I instantly hated him, Joker may be weird, but Jared Leto really destroyed the role and it felt like he was the wrong choice for the character. The villain of the film Enchantress played by Cara Delevigne was horribly obnoxious, her role as the main villain of the film watered down with a annoying love story with Joel Kinnaman's character which was always trying to get in the way of everything that was happening. On the other side of all this is Will Smith who had the best backstory of the film, which exceeded my expectations, his character is funny, he's right in the middle of the action while at the same time being one of the anchor's of the film that's keeping it afloat. The other anchor of the film who really hit it out of the park was Margot Robbie who played Harley Quinn, her portrayal was obviously spot on as she captured part of Harley's backstory and her recognizable personality was carefully executed and became another one of the things keeping the film afloat. I was really surprised by the performance of Viola Davis for her portrayal of Amanda Waller because at first at any hopes of getting any knowledge of her character in the beginning of the film was worthless. Her character was at first very mysterious, she felt a little unpredictable until she turned out to be just as cold-blooded as the rest of the squad. I loved the makeup on Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje who played Killer Croc, but I was hoping to see more of him, unlike everyone else in the squad who had even the least amount of backstory to their characters, I never saw anything for Killer Croc. Jai Courtney who portrayed Captain Boomerang was nothing really worth talking about, he was sort of funny, but really barely stood out of the crowd. I was disappointed with the fact that Adam Beach's portrayal of Slipknot was so minuscule and so worthless that I was always hoping that he would have better meaning for being in the film. Karen Fukuhara who portrays Katana was really cool looking buts kind of doesn't fit in with everyone else as she plays a very silent role compared to everyone else. But, the one thing I never saw coming was Jay Hernandaz who portrayed El Diablo, his character was so awesome, his backstory was emotionally deep, that in the end really was worth all the trouble. And finally the soundtrack, I was rocking in my seat in the theater to every song I knew, even to the songs I didn't know, I wouldn't compare it to Guardians of the Galaxy, but it was really great. Suicide Squad may of had a really crappy villain, and a too weird for my standards portrayal of the Joker, Suicide Squad kept me at the edge of my seat. Expand

I wanted to see more and I'd love to see a sequel. Each villain for the most part gets some screen time to be bad ass, even in situations that seem unlikely. Lots of action, humor and overall left me more than satisfied. At first I heard reviews were poor but after seeing the people's review alongside seeing it myself I begin to question whether critics banded together to weigh down this DC gem. Expand

Margot Robbie is easily the standout of the cast with her energetic, scene-stealing portrayal of Harley Quinn, though Will Smith and Viola Davis deserve credit too. I may be in the minority here, but I also thought that Jared Leto was much better than people give him credit for. The Joker-Harley dynamic was easily my favourite part of the film. Of course, I still had problems. Not all of the squad were terribly memorable (they could have done the whole movie without Katana and Captain Boomarang) and the main antagonist was underwhelming. But Suicide Squad is still a fun movie with enough humour and action to overcome its flaws. A HUGE step-up from Batman v Superman. Expand

И так понятно думаю, что Marvel - как бы на аудиторию в 6-12 лет, а DC - 13+

И так понятно думаю, что Marvel - как бы на аудиторию в 6-12 лет, а DC - 13+

Основные различия - в социальном реализме. У Marvel всё красочное, эм, мир детский реальные мысли не допускаются - ничего общего с каким-нибудь глухарём, побегом из тюрьмы, или еще сотней бандитских фильмов. Персонажи 2битные, объяснения почему стал героем или зладеем - посмшещищные и вот чисто детские, вот даунские, тупым надо быть чтобы поставить такую хуйню триггером. У ДС жи вполне всё честно: есть травля, несправедливость, учитывается психология реального мира, психология людей и суициды.
Это просто психолонические драми с кучей насилия, об обычных грязных людях из того же фильма Грязь. Они - не в маня-мирке. Там объясняется что эти люди хотят иметь семьи, любовь, детей, и я двачер их прекрасно понимаю. Мне тоже не место в этом мире, меня тоже ненавидят и я хочу убивать. Это драматические фильмы о нас, настоящих людях

Маварл - это не боевики, а просто игрушечные айрон мэны в тонах комедий на Малибу, пальмы и красные крутые тачки, блондинки в красных бикини, это некий свой жанр. Детская комдеия-боевик, вот. Простите что постоянно аппелирую к детскости, просто я считаю что это именно жанр этих фильмов. Например "фильмы для детей, музыка для детей, мультики для детей".
Понятно да, что они уступают на голову обычной фантастике.

DC же по сути -обычные боевики. Вот смотришшь - брутальность, кровища, реальная структура мира. Это те же самые Крепкий Орешек, Миссия Невыполнима или Петля Времени. Просто на еще более ахуенном уровне. Из-за хауненый персонажей. Это просто бомжежка для индустрии. Это сумасшедшая разница. Есть просто целая гора харизматичнейших персонажей на десятилетия вперед, чьи истоии можно расскзаать. И разумеется. все вот эти пидер-мены, хищники и рэмбо отсосут рядом с уже легендарным Бэтменом, Джокером, Харли Квин, Эль Диабло

Во-первых хочу отметить глубину персонажей и их эпичность,
Целостность вселенной - это то как должна была сделат марвел, вот при просмотре у меня постоянно возникали такие вопросы "а где этот блядь хули он не в этом фильмеп" Проблема еще в том, что в марвел все картонные и как цирк просто с конями, вне фильмов эти персонажи не живые и не живут. Ибо они РАСКРЫВАЮТ ВСЕ СВОИ КАРТЫ И ЧЕРТЫ ХАРАКТЕРА КАК В ПЕРВЫЙ РАЗ в своей жизни, как на сцене, что выдают все свои приемчики и пытаются всех поразить, а не живут своей жизнью

В отряде самоубийц чувтсвовалось что персонажей просто выдернули из их повседневки, сняли отрывок про этот эпизод их жизни, после чего отпустили жить своей жизнью дальше. Все гармонично, я уверен харли сейчас грабит что-то со своим ебырем. Впервые, Джокера кстати, показали не бесполым тупорылым старпером. Интересно, что же его так разъело...

Эти фильмы - просто перенеснные из вот Аркхэм серии на большой и экран и с реальными аткерами видосы. Просто ахуенно смотреть на всех этих уже дохуя глубоких и харизматичных персонажей. У марвел такого нет и не будет, - это комедия ебаная, сериал друзья.

Ох блядь как эпично блядь их всех видеть вместе аж невериться.
Бэтмен к которому мы привыкли видеть только в своих фильмах, про которого посмотрели уже 3 фильма и 4 игры - теперь стал каноничнее и появляется в каждом фильме как ему и положено. Фильмы теперь не кастраты, а полноценны как и видеоигры ,где всё логично.

Во-первых хочу отметить актёров DC. Ткаим жестом они как бы утвердились как короли фильмов те, кто стоят на порядок выше всех и нанимают топовых актеров.
Это Джаред Лето, о боги как я его обажаю. Он получил Оскара за роль пидора в Далласком Клубе, у него пиздецки ахуенная группа, он играл в Господине Никто
Это Клах Дрого, второй чувак на которого я равняюсь.
Это Вилл Смит, Бэн Аффлек

Эль Диабло получился в Отряде - уберканоничном, прямо из Arkham вытащили.
Остальные - ну, Харли збс, Джокер... уверен раскроется в Бэтмене 2018.
Уилл Смит не понравился. Дэдшот должен быть
1. Здоровее и брутальнее
2. Белее
Киллер крок показался закомплексованным по поводу своего уродства и слабоватым физически. Наверняка его специально не стали делать огромным - НАХУЙ ДС ВТОРОЙ ОГРОМНЫЙ ЧУВАК-МОНСТР ВРОДЕ ХАЛКА

IF your going into this movie, thinking your going to get what you've seen in the comic books? Boy! will you will be disappointed. But IF you go in, with very low expectations, however. You'll be pleasantly surprised:) Will Smith was really good as DeadShot and Margot Robbie was good as Harley Quinn. And Viola Davis was really good as Amanda Waller. Now it was recently learned , that this movie was edited together horribly. And yes that can make world of difference, In the final movie. I have listened to a lot of people complain as to what they hated? But I have yet to hear , what they liked about Suicide Squad. Besides , the actors. It was loud and it was dumb , and it was fun:) Kinda like the first TMNT. DC doesn't have the best track record , when it comes to comic book movies either. No, Marvel owns that title. But DC is best on the small screen, from the DC TV shows to movies like Batman Assault on Arkham. But at the same time, Marvel could make a bad live action movie and, it could easily be flipped. So IF you go into Suicide Squad , not over hyped? Then you'll enjoy it , for what it is. A Will Smith movie;) Peace Out!

About characters, i think film crew tried to tell us more about each character, but they did not have much time. Croc, Slipknot and Boomerang was like - "i do not know why i am here!". To my mind Deadshot, Harley and El Diablo are very cool, all of them surprised me.

Action scenes are simple and nice, final fight was a little bit stupid, but it's so impressing.

The music was very good too! I was just delighted.

Eventually, it is very cool and funny movie, tht you won't forget a very long time!

The presentation of the characters and their interactions are what make this film work in an plot which we have seen again and again (Bad guy goes to a place to build a weapon and take over the world) but following the characters overwhelms any negative feeling I have over a very familiar plot. Unquestionably Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn and Will Smith as Deadshot are the main focus of this ensemble cast. However the other members of the Suicide Squad have chances to shine as well. The performances for the this movie are top notch, proving entertaining, heart breaking, and badass fun. While this film certainly isn't one of the best Comic book movies ever, it a far cry from deserving the negative criticism it has gotten. Here's to hopefully a sequel. Expand

Deadshot is awesome, Harley is a blast (the source of the tone changes), Waller is terrifying, and all of the other characters have very small moments and are kind of just there with some pizzazz. I don't think that this should have been a save the world movie, I think that they should have been sent on a shady government job under the radar. This movie is rough and no that great, but it's a lot of fun! Expand

For a movie that introduced so many characters, I liked all of them. The one actress who surprised me the most was Cara Delevingne as The Enchantress. Cara may be new to the acting scene, but she actually looked and acted terrifyingly well. Despite this movie being about villains teaming up to be heroes, it does have a fair amount of heartfelt moments. It shows that even criminals have emotions and heart. This movie is by no means perfect. It has a few flaws but they don't take away too much from the experience. I got my moneys worth seeing Suicide Squad. If you're a comic book fan, go see it. It shows that when the world is in danger, even bad guys can put their differences and egos aside to work for a good cause. Expand

Whilst not being the greatest movie of all time this movie had some decent moments. The action scenes and comedic elements were when the movie was at its best.

That said i feel like the following things detracted from the overall presentation.
-The Joker - yes the Joker - he's little more than a supporting character and ultimately the performance was not as great as the hype around it. I feel like he could have just had a role in a couple of scenes as the rest of the performance and the narrative elements with him in are just weak elsewhere - he needed to be in there somewhere but he never truly finds a place in this movie.
- Captain Boomerang - Weak - ultimately his character does little and he could have just as easily been cut if it wasn't for the minor cameo to help build up the DC universe. Every second he was on screen i was bored.
-Killer Croc - not enough of him, his character was great at points and i would love to see him have seen some more skull cracking moments.
-The bad guys - What even happened to the army of them in the end did they all just give up did they return to normal lives - it could easily have been anything else other than what it was. - I'd take aliens over this.
- Navy seal guy gets a pass just barely from me as his character wasn't notable for much but filled his role adequately and got out of the way to see the characters just enough to avoid detracting from the film. The acting itself was fine but as a character him and katana are just kinda there.

But there was some good moments and if you ignore what narrative there is and focus on the action and the more notable performances it'll be more enjoyable all around.

I thought they did a fantastic jobThis is the classic "the other guys" storyline, which also does a fantastic job in establishing character relationships which will undoubtedly prove to be hugely important later on down the line. I thought they did a fantastic job introducing the new Joker and HQ, filming from the villains point of view, and showing glimpses into character motivation and back stories.

This Suicide Squad placement in this DC series is important in that it clearly establishes the "failed attempt" by the government to provide a solution to what Waller terms as the "Metahuman" problem. At the end of it all, the operation was a huge failure (in which they must clean up a mess made by the government (Waller/Flagg) and successfully sets up a need for a good guy team instead...enter Justice League.

Now, this movie was by no means meant to be a standalone, and where I see the critics failing miserably in their critiques is by judging this movie by the main plot line itself, and not feeling satisfied with the individual character developments. Its crazy I know, why would anyone care so much about a movie plots and robust character development? Wait, just hear me out on this one....

The main plot in Suicide Squad was not as important to the whole progression of the movie, or to the DC universe expansion; rather was meant to serve as merely a vehicle to give a reason for these particular characters to be forced to work together in a world where they normally would not have. The more important aspects to this movie were the introduction of characters and their interactions, their motivations, back-stories, struggles, character alignment (i.e. Flagg/Lawton) and to setup additional DC films and not to spend too much time concentrating on anyone specifically - I somehow don't think that DeadShot and Batman are finished as Lawton (DeadShot) states he has unfinished business in Gotham, and if anyone thinks that the relationship between HQ and the Joker isn't hugely important, whether it shows his/her fatal flaw or his motivation for actions (or reasons for a potential huge fall in later movies) must have fallen asleep during the film. How the main plot holds together or even the storyline of the main plot itself in this instance doesn't matter...I mean even though I'm a huge fan I quickly recognized the main plot to be weak (the Witch and her bro) until I saw what I believed the movie makers were trying to accomplish. The important aspects were to show what makes these guys tick, recognize the individual motivations pushing characters to make certain decisions as well as certain mistakes...love was a huge motivator in this movie (HQ/Joker - Flagg/Moon - DeadShot/daughter), and to setup for other installments.

By no way am I likening this movie to Shakespeare, but have you read his storylines...they're ridiculous if you try to apply them to real life. However, Shakespeare wasn't trying to write Danielle Steele love novels nor Michael Creighton action novels. his art captured the complexity of the human condition, motivations, humor, strengths and weaknesses and the plot by itself was less important than the character interactions and underlying theme (i.e. greed, ambition, love, jealousy, revenge, honor, loyalty, etc.).

Things are not black/white and perspectives will vary depending on where you are standing...or being forced to stand in the case of these "bad guys". This perspective given from the bad guys point of view was perfect and everyone in the audience was empathetic to their struggles/past histories and wanted these guys to win by the end of the movie...even though we have grown up with the comics only seeing these characters as only villians.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have had a bone to pick with DC regarding Man of Steel and BvS. There is something about their interpretation of Superman that makes my blood boil. So, I was actually looking forward to Suicide Squad. It promised to be irreverent, mad and fun. My heart sank reading the critic reviews, but being a DC fan, sent up a prayer and went ahead to see the movie anyway. Boy, am I glad, I did.
First off, it isn't art. It isn't a "good" movie with all the right words, with all the right camera and editing techniques and a brilliant script.
It is, what we would in India call, a good, old-fashioned 'masala' film. It is made for the fan. So it is fun, thrilling with some fabulous laugh-out-loud moments. I loved the soundtrack. It was great seeing characters you had read as a child, come alive on screen. And I was surprised, considering DC has done a complete number on Supe (Boy Scout no more!). It was a roller coaster. Margot Robbie and Will Smith were great (I admit, I squealed a bit when Deadshot came on screen), as I did with Diablo towards the end (and with the Flash cameo). I hated Amanda Waller (read Viola Davis was brilliant) and Jared Leto did fab as the Joker. In all, a great film to unwind to and enjoy. Sure there is a lot that could have been better, especially the big bad. Waller seemed a far more formidable big bad than Enchantress. Oh well.
In all, a great kick-off point, I think, to what could (with a solid storyline) lead to a solid sequel.
A good time to address the whole critics vs fans bit maybe: The critics have set the bar really high, which is great. That means WB and DC will have to work far, far harder now to give us truly fabulous films. As fans we deserve the best. Suicide Squad wasn't the best. What it was though was good fun that kept me glued to my chair.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Honestly, This movie isn't bad as people make it out to be. Some may say it's okay, or others say it's good, but I wouldn't say it was a masterpiece. It was GREAT. Great being more positive than good, I don't see why others hate it so much including the critics.

Here's my review:

Suicide Squad has an decent introduction. It introduces the cast and their profiles. It was great to see their backstories and how their prison life is which is very realistic. I loved every moment of it, But I had to cringe a bit at some lines.

Here is the delivery, it's a PG-13 movie so of course some lines weren't that strong.

I really have to crook my head to the side at this one line...

"Lady, you're evil!" - Deadshot.

That's odd, couldn't it have been written a little more interesting? The characters come off as very fun people but hesitant of doing bad things when they are criminals we are watching from criminals point of view. Not Batman.

Seeing as to how Deadshot could of killed Harley to see his daughter again, He would of done it. But actually he didn't.

Neither of them established they were friends before that point either, Meaning he had no reason or hesitance to shoot. He's a hitman right? The pacing and the scenes were structured out of place.

Not saying there was no story at all though, The story was interesting unlike many others viewed. Generic? It was still likeable. The squad are fighting against the enchantress army which is actually nice to watch. The Action was decent, but nothing over the top. I think if we seen more fighting it'd be great.

But... The other characters aside from Deadshot, Harley Quinn, El Diablo don't get many lines or backstory or scenes which I'd like to see.

Of course you can't fit that in one movie.

I think if they just stuck with Deadshot's story with minor references from the other villians and less flashbacky more story focused with action many people will like this movie more.

The movie could of had more time to focus on pacing as well if they weren't trying to crush every person's backstory in which didn't fit at all.

But overall.

It's a likeable fun summer movie.

Why does it deserve any lower than a 5? It's not that bad at all. The directors cut will be a thing to see as well which you may like better.

Acting, for the most part, on point. Costumes on point. Only thing that bothered me was the watering down the Harley/Joker relationship. Real shame the political correctness of Hollywood made them cut out the abuse scenes, because that's a huge aspect of their twisted relationship. Hurry and go see this on the big screen.

There are too many flashbacks, too many unearned character about-faces and too little that is original or interesting in the final battle. But while it may not be the superhero film we deserve, Suicide Squad is the superhero film we need right now. Mainly this is because of the characters are just so different from the well worn superhero stereotypes we have all seen too many times. There are no Amazon princesses in Suicide Squad, no superpowered aliens, no billionaire playboy philanthropists. There are just a bunch of hard-working, down to earth gangstas, assassins and crazy people. Their idea of high style is a pimp hat or pair of eight inch heels. This group probably could not even get to Midway City without government help----- which consists, appropriately, of an ancient helicopter with one of the dumbest pilots in the world. These characters---and the good performances by the main cast---- carry the film pretty well up to the final fight which, honestly, was underwhelming. But before that, the film is entertaining and perfectly watchable. I don't understand complaints about Suicide Squad being "choppy" or "a mess". I found it a perfectly lucid story. It's not a *great* story, for reasons I have stated above. But it is perfectly understandable. Complaints about the Joker not being in the movie enough are misplaced------ this is not a story about him. Suicide Squad is about Harley Quinn and the other members of the Squad. The Joker appears only as her boyfriend. He is not a villain here or even a Shakespearean jester. He is Harley's Byronic hero. For that, his screen time is perfect. I did not care for the songs, which are too on-the-nose. Expand

On the one hand, it is noticeable that the former idea of this movie was dumbed down to reach a wider audience, trying so hard to make us sympathise with the "bad guys" that they never felt like bad guys at all. What's also a real shame is how little of Jared Leto's Joker we get after all the hype he was getting, having most of his scenes cut to make him more of a Prince Charming than the Clown Prince of Crime we expected (and Jared Leto seems to be the one that's most pissed about it). But, with all it's problems, I'd be lying if I didn't admit I had a great time watching this film. What you get in the end is a very exciting movie with an amazing cast. We have the best Will Smith role in years and Margot Robbie steals the show on every scene she is in. It's the interaction between the characters that make this movie work and had me wanting to watch more of each individual. So despise my cold mind reminding me of it's many structural problems and missed opportunities, I have to go with my heart and recommend this movie as a very entertaining experience that will have you hoping to see this characters back on the screen.

The critics have got this wrong!

How can this movie be worse than Sausage Party I have no idea.
Yes, DC is rushing as fast as possible to Justice League without
taking the time that Marvel did to make their mistakes and then
learn to get things right. But this films is a step in the right
direction.

Suicide Squad brings back the Comic in the DC films universe. While
the Christopher Nolan Dark Knight films did an excellent job bring
the Batman story back for adults, not everything has to be dark and
brooding. Jared Leto's performance as the Joker brings that character
to life as a modern day gangster. Sinister drips off of his portrayal
whenever he is on screen. The colors, sound editing, and cinematography
give you an exhilarating ride through the pages of some of DC's most
underplayed characters.

If you are a comics fan go see this film. Hopefully DC films will
continue to adjust their formula going toward Justice League, but this
movie moves in the right direction.

Do we really needed another "the critic doesn't know what they are talking about" moment?
Apparently we did. The movie is far from perfect, as almost any movie is anyway, but it is as enjoyable as I expected stepping in the theatre!

Margot Robbie was AWESOME, the real MVP of the movie, she brought Harley to life! Will Smith was also fantastic as Deadshot and El Diablo also work'd imho, loved the character.

Last but not least, Jared Leto! I had some serious doubts about him but man, I was so wrong. He gave us a different, modernized, Joker and yeah, in my opinion it worked out! Do you honestly see the awesomely serious Heath Ledger Joker is this funny mess? Nope. This Joker instead is cohesive with the movie tone! I also liked that he didn't steal the movie, this wasn't supposed to be a Joker movie after all, those 15 minutes felt exactly right.

Honorable mention goes to Enchantress and Batman. I honestly didn't know much about Cara Delevigne character but it intrigued me: the origin story, the art, the powers, the rendering .... Really well done! Batman appearences were short but spectacular, the first one was just awesome, you could feel the 'Ohhh's in the audience.

Now the "meh" parts:
- The pacing felt strange at times and some scenes were too blacked out.
- Some characters felt underdeveloped, Cpt. Boomerang and Katana got thier moments but they could have been better, Killer Croc wasn't really funny even when he tried. Slipknot? Rofl.
- Joel Kinnaman character was forgettable. Probably not the correct actor choice?
- Viola Davis .... Yeah, meh. I didn't feel neither her or her character. Bad.
- The brotherly thing was avoidable and the ending was a bit disappointing.

One last note. My wife, who usually dislikes superhero movies, really liked this one. Thanks WB :D

There is an interesting choice in this movie with a Batman and Harley Quinn scene that I think was genius and changes the dynamic of both characters.

Enchantress was okay, until there is a scene where she is club dancing in front of flashy lights. Even with that laughable villain, this movie works, so that's saying something.

I thought that Robbie acted out Harley Quinn's histrionic-esque personality very well and Smith, who I wasn't expecting much from, made for a pretty hard-core Deadshot. Despite what some may say, I found that I quite like Jared Leto's take on the Joker and his romance with Harley Quinn. Expand

The best aspect of this film was Margot Robbie's depiction and overall performance of Harley quinn was very memorable, humorerss and physoctic which is heavily necessary when your performing this category of character. This is pure evidence that Robbie is expendable and is adapted to her character swiftly. Will smith provided a unexpected satisfactory perfomance of the merciless hitman Deadshot.

a questionable character in this film was the joker ( This is my own personal opinion),Jared Leto evidently gave a satisfactory depiction of the joker but the impression i received which i found disappointing was that Leto's joker was relatable to a organized crime boss(such as the mafia).Instead of typically being the frenzied madman that we all(im assuming 'all') know and love, we were provided an intimidating, intense joker. This entire statement is highly evident as The joker(IM NOT SPOILING) owns a strip club and has a loyal gang of henchman.
My entire statement could potentially be false as there is a highly irritating and popular flaw ..... Jared leto's deleted scenes( The flaw lies about the quantity of them!!!!!!!

The plot was very simplistic and disappointing. But the soundtrack was partly good.

overall a mediocre film with plenty of improvements to be made in a (unfortunately) lot of aspects..

Really enjoyable Movie. Some little gaps between here and there, but its definitely not the worst movie of the year, either the best. Suicide Squad is not the best movie from Dc, but they can do something with it.

I have to say many people and critics are being silly! This movie was great. Many say that none could beat the joker and batman of Christopher Nolan's Trilogy. I myself love The Dark Knight, but I gotta say you can't say this was bad. It hadI have to say many people and critics are being silly! This movie was great. Many say that none could beat the joker and batman of Christopher Nolan's Trilogy. I myself love The Dark Knight, but I gotta say you can't say this was bad. It had more in common with the comics than Nolan's batman and joker. Jared Leto, Margot Robbie and Will Smith were exquisite. Some others complain that the movie was clumsy and messy. That was intentional; the director was pointing out how messy and mixed up the squad was. Expand

One of the downs was the Joker: despite the psychotic tattooed clown having the stylish look and insane personality, he didn't get as much screen time as he deserves despite Jared Leto putting a lot of effort into the role. Though, characters like Deadshot (Will Smith) and Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie) were well portrayed. Expand

Suicide Squad is a beacon of light shining through the dumpster fire of a year that 2016 was. In a movie industry filled with dozens of superhero movies competing to be the summer blockbuster, it is refreshing to finally get a movie about theSuicide Squad is a beacon of light shining through the dumpster fire of a year that 2016 was. In a movie industry filled with dozens of superhero movies competing to be the summer blockbuster, it is refreshing to finally get a movie about the villains. Although they do bad stuff, they are people with stories that deserve to be explored. But this movie was not some mediocre first attempt at exploring a villain’s story, it was a beautifully executed film about a whole cast of characters. This movie had a lot it was trying to balance in its fairly short 2 hour runtime. It had to develop a history for all of characters, start and resolve the conflict with Enchantress, while trying to balance elements of being both a drama and a comedy. Starting with character development, DC chooses to emphasize two of the villains, Deadshot and Harley. Harley Quinn is fully developed from how she meets the Joker, how they get separated because of “Batsy”, and how they get reunited later in the movie. An additional bonus is how hot Margot Robbie is as Harley Quinn. There is no shortage of sex appeal in this movie from Harley to Enchantress, to even Katana (can we take a moment to appreciate this win for diversity in Hollywood). Almost every frame is filled with some serious eye candy, not to mention the great shots of Harley throughout the movie. Deadshot is also well developed in this movie, with DC choosing to focus on his relationship with his daughter and uses it to explain why he does what he does (assassinate people). He wants to provide for his daughter in whatever way he can, but he also feels the regret of doing such villainous acts while trying to be a good example for his daughter. While these two characters are the main focus, everyone else has a rich history that is told throughout the story. For instance El Diablo who is scared to use his abilities to harm anyone. That is, until my favorite scene [MINOR SPOILER ALERT] a bar scene where all the characters feel disheartened and stop at a bar that is on their way to Enchantress. They sit and discuss what's on their mind; El Diablo explains his fear, and is liberated allowing him to get past his fear. This scene is an excellent way to develop all the characters and grow their bond. Captain Boomerang is another character who is just all around hilarious. From his recurring Pink Unicorn fetish joke to his constant failed attempts to hit on Katana, his comic relief gives me life. All this is not to mention the Batman and Flash cameos that are hype af. We can’t talk about the characters without talking about the soundtrack of this film. It is literally fantastic. Every pre-existing song that is used just fits with the scene so well. But where the soundtrack really shines is all the original songs recorded. Sucker for Pain is an absolute banger, Bohemian Rhapsody is haunting, and Heathens is actually Grammy nominated (https: // goo. gl / SRV0Sq). The plot is great as we watch this dysfunctional team of misfits grow together. It is filled with great running jokes and funny one-liners. And the ending is great, when they stop Enchantress, while leaving June Moone alive for her husband, and they all go back to prison waiting for their next assignment, but Joker comes to break Harley out. Suicide Squad 2 honestly can not come fast enough. I am waiting on the edge of my seat for where this wiley crew will go next. Expand

I had such an amazing time with Suicide Squad. An amazing 2 hours of action packed mayhem. The movie can be a mess, at times but its ultimately a popcorn film and it succeeds in being a popcorn film.
