With an A-list cast, I wanted to like this movie but i couldn't. It felt too rushed to compete with with Marvel. They should have flushed out the characters and took there time.

Hugely disappointing, especially coming after the magnificent BvS, but looks like that (and MoS) were the exceptions and DC is now going to start cranking out superhero movies as mediocre as Marvel's.

First problem: tries to establish way
Hugely disappointing, especially coming after the magnificent BvS, but looks like that (and MoS) were the exceptions and DC is now going to start cranking out superhero movies as mediocre as Marvel's.

First problem: tries to establish way too many characters, with the result that we wind up not caring about any of them. This has been plaguing the X-men and Avengers movies too (who actually cares about Bucky?), and apparently DC has learned nothing from it. One hero we actually like with a real dramatic arc is way better than 6 we don't care about.

Second problem: Unbelievably bad villains. Magic Tentacle Dude and Shadow Woman are some of the least compelling villains since Loki's army of faceless aliens on hoverbikes. They're not threatening, they're not interesting, they're not even neat to look at. Relatedly, the Joker (who apparently was supposed to be the main antagonist in early versions of the story) is lackluster and given absolutely nothing to do in the plot. Turns out his whole point was just to be in the trailers and tease audiences into seats; we're not coming out to see Captain Boomerang after all.

Third problem: the story's own internal logic doesn't work. This is supposed to be a team of people who could fight "another Superman", yet almost none of them have any real powers, and half of them have already got their butts kicked by Batman? It's not a nitpick, this is a serious story problem, since it undermines the whole premise of the movie for every second of screen time and makes a lot of the characters' actions incoherent.

Fourth problem: Too much Will Smiff.

Fifth problem: The PG-13 rating. If you want to make a funny, edgy movie about badass anti-heroes, you need to go full R, period. Deadpool took that chance and it paid off beautifully (that was really the movie this wanted to be).

I'm bearish on the upcoming Wonder Woman and Justice League movies too; the former has the Grrlbusters problem of trying to turn a fun action movie into a nagging feminist lecture ("you're a secretary? Where I'm from we call that SLAVERY!"), and the latter is probably another overstuffed designed-by-committee fanservice-fest with no cinematic heart or soul (but this time with more Marvel-style snarky quips!). It looks like for the foreseeable future Nolan's Batman and Snyder's Superman movies are going to remain the high-water mark of this genre.

I've seen a lot of movies. I have seen a lot of good movies. I've seen a lot of bad movies. Suicide Squad is a bad movie. However, it is bad in a unique way. This is the first movie I've ever watched that made me feel genuine embarrassment. II've seen a lot of movies. I have seen a lot of good movies. I've seen a lot of bad movies. Suicide Squad is a bad movie. However, it is bad in a unique way. This is the first movie I've ever watched that made me feel genuine embarrassment. I wasn't even out in public. I was watching this at home, and this movie made me feel embarrassed for ever liking DC Comics.

Where to begin? The pacing is atrocious. The film doesn't know how to start. The final cut feels like a dozen trailers edited together. The editing itself is awful. The soundtrack is insulting. The script is predictable. The dialogue is hollow. The visual effects feel dated. The action feels dull. The lighting is bland. The cinematography is uninspired. The character's motivations are whatever is convenient to the plot. The actors performances are truly awful. The film also cannot decide on what tone it wants to have.

On top of this, the movie is mind-numbingly boring. I was watching this at home with some friends, and they fell asleep! We weren't even watching it late at all! Ugh. This might be the worst DC movie. I think the only people that like this movie are people that like to pleasure themselves to Harley Quinn. I know that statement is probably going to get this review a lot of downvotes from the Metacritic trolls, but I don't care. Bring it on!

The movieAmazing that there was a petition from a huge fanbase that enjoyed this "movie" to remove rotten tomatoes as a website, when it is simply a medium for critics and people to express their opinion, showing nothing but ignorance. The movie indeed sucks, it is an attrocious piece of garbage unfortunately. Still, if you wanna watch it go ahead, but that does not change the fact that it is trash. Had never seen such bad editing, although it is no suprise, they hired a trailer company to edit this movie. The script is ridiculous and inconsistent, and despite good casting, none of the actors involved had anything to work with. Jared Leto even let me down. No doubt he has proven he is a great actor, but he tried too hard in this one, and the joker simply became a joke, consistently generating unintentional laughs due to the ridiculousness of the script and the exaggerated acting from Leto. The plot does not even make sense, and Cara Delevingne as always has proven to all of us that she cannot act, not to mention the fact that her character was laughably awful. Try to not waste your money on this. Expand

Over-hyped, Hollywood needs to stop being so lazy in badly ripping off bad comics. It probably doesn't matter how badly this movie does in the box office, they'll all make money in the end and just produce some more terrible comic books.

I did like Will Smiths performance as Dead-shot which fit in well with the plot and improved things for Enchantress vs the team but the cut/editing was just awful. The extended version should've just been released as normal but they have to charge extra for correcting their mistakes...and don't get me started on the soundtrack
P.s. The endings felt lazily slapped up as well (Not a spoiler)

Despite what you think, I believe that if this was my worst cinema experience EVER, it is more than worthy of a 0. The whole thing seems like one big trailer, devoid of any charm or like ability. Characters are introduced left and right, some even half-way through the film. And 'characters' would be a generous term, as none of them have any to speak of. What is utterly pathetic are the people spamming out 10/10s without even seeing the damn movie, giving this a completely undeserved user score. This is the movie equivalent of Donald Trump. Some blindly follow it, some blindly hate it, but the majority of sane people dislike it.

Except Trump is far more likeable than this garbage.

The plot was more shallow than that of an average chick flick. The movie seemed like an half-assed fanfiction an edgy tween wrote loosely based on the comic.

The writing, directing and action all aren’t great, and it’s a real shame because the story and underlying concept are pretty good and the cast of this movie is phenomenal. This movie feels incredibly rushed as though it was done in a hurry in meet production deadlines and like it needed more work done on it to be complete. Most of the scenes are sloppy, choppy and awkward and lack the finesse they would need to help the movie flow smoothly and be enjoyable to watch. Many of them should’ve been done very differently, and to be honest this movie would’ve benefited from a total rethinking and reshooting. The movie tries to be “cool” at times via some lines in the script, but ends up giving off an immature vibe that begs for the script to be workshopped and edited. The actors do their best with what they’re given in this movie and actually do decent jobs with their characters, but it isn’t even close to enough to overcome all the flaws in this movie. The movie gives the characters backstories, an actually redeeming quality, so that we can have some context for who these characters are, but these stories don’t add much emotion or depth to the film and seem like they were thrown in there to help fill the runtime. This in turn takes away from the truly important parts of the movie and doesn’t allow for climatic moments, deep storytelling or emotional moments, which is ironic because this movie is called “Suicide Squad”. That name would suggest an inherently high stakes and emotional nature to the movie, and it doesn’t really live up to that. What we get is a movie that emphasizes shooting, explosions and slang and ignores the deep core ideas behind its premise. There are also a few scenes that are totally unnecessary and don’t do much for the movie. If you’re a teenage boy/girl who loves shooting games, talking in slang and doesn’t care about good storytelling, this is a great movie for you. However, if you’re someone looking to get a bit more out of a movie, you probably won’t enjoy this too much. But, if you’re interested in things to not do in a movie and mistakes you can make, I’d actually recommend you watch Suicide Squad as an educational experience. You can learn just as much from watching a bad movie as you can from a good one, so I’d take a look at Suicide Squad for tricks, tips, and don’t’s. Overall Suicide Squad feels like a hugely missed opportunity and remains today probably the worst DCEU film we’ve seen so far. Expand
