Yeah, it's corny and cheesy at times but it's still a fun movie to watch, it's a pretty satisfactory DC movie if I do say so myself. Also Jared Leto's Joker isn't that terrible I personally thought he was fun to watch just because of how silly he was and how much I couldn't take him seriously in comparison to, let's say, Heath Ledger's Joker. To me he was enjoyable to watch because of how cringe and goofy he was. This movie is so silly and it's fun to watch because of how much you can make fun of it and laugh at it, I don't think it's meant to be taken seriously at all. Expand

Jared Leto had, what, 7 minutes of screen time? And that was enough to make this movie be labeled as trash. It's bad outside of him too, he's just the main one that sticks out

To relaunch the DC universe by Snyder after the half-flop Batman v Superman. The film wants to be a conglomeration of genres, not a well-defined or distinct one, but it wants to be an action film, a comedy film, a horror film, a film noir, a drama film and many other things at the same time. The result? It's not even half a film, it's just something badly edited. However, urban legends claim that there is a mysterious Ayer's Cut. And honestly, just thinking about it, I'm so scared and I'm grateful that it doesn't exist, yet. Besides, isn't it possible to make a well-made film and that's it? Why is a Director's Cut always mandatory and inevitable to give him more credit or value? Proof that perhaps they too know that they are giving the general public a product that makes waters on all sides. Expand

Director David Ayer faces the challenge of introducing and integrating ten major characters to an audience who may not be familiar with the comics. While Ayer mostly succeeds, the film struggles with "Hobbit Syndrome" where there are too many peripheral characters who are underdeveloped. Some characters, like El Diablo and Killer Croc, are entertaining but not given enough depth to truly make an impact. The villains of the movie are also underwhelming and unmemorable, with the exception of Viola Davis' portrayal of Amanda Waller as a ruthless government operative. Will Smith and Margot Robbie shine as Deadshot and Harley Quinn, respectively, providing both humor and depth to their characters. The visuals of the film are striking and vibrant, but the editing and pacing of the film can be disjointed at times. Overall, Suicide Squad has its moments of entertainment but falls short in its character development and villain execution.

Suicide Squad es una película de historietas sobre un grupo de villanos reclutados por el gobierno para hacer su trabajo sucio. El director David Ayer enfrenta el desafío de presentar e integrar diez personajes principales a una audiencia que puede no estar familiarizada con los cómics. Si bien Ayer tiene éxito en su mayoría, la película lucha con el "Síndrome de Hobbit", donde hay demasiados personajes periféricos que están subdesarrollados. Algunos personajes, como El Diablo y Killer Croc, son entretenidos pero no tienen la profundidad suficiente para tener un impacto real. Los villanos de la película también son decepcionantes e inmemorables, con la excepción de la interpretación que hace Viola Davis de Amanda Waller como una agente del gobierno despiadada. Will Smith y Margot Robbie brillan como Deadshot y Harley Quinn, respectivamente, aportando humor y profundidad a sus personajes. Las imágenes de la película son llamativas y vibrantes, pero la edición y el ritmo de la película pueden ser inconexos a veces. En general, Suicide Squad tiene sus momentos de entretenimiento, pero se queda corto en el desarrollo del personaje y la ejecución del villano.

Although it wasn't particularly horrible, there was definitely room for improvement. It wasn't really essential for the movie's start to spend so much time demonstrating how the various criminals were apprehended. Then, as the action began, much of it was too dark, making it difficult to see what was going on. Although these characters are supposed to be super-villains, the film didn't seem particularly violent. It would have been great if it had been as vicious as "Kick-Ass" or even "Dredd," but I suppose the producers wanted it to have a PG-13 rating. The cast is sufficiently sturdy; ROBBIE MARGOT

Critics and Marvel Trolls, chill; DC and Movie Fans everywhere, have fun with your Squad!

Once again the critics have proved themselves to be out of touch and irrelevant as last night I watched one of the most fun movies in an age at the cinema and literally left the theatre grinning from ear to ear. I'm not a film critic but I believe I know movies and after trawling through some of the worst (written) reviews that I've ever read, I'm definitely confused.com. Late twenties Rotten Tomatoes score??? Not even anywhere close to representing the film I experienced.

Will Smith, Margot Robbie, Jared Leto et al, absolutely nailed it and David Ayer's recent twitter post played out for me throughout the entire film... Zapata quote is my way of saying I love the movie and believe in it. Made it for the fans. Best experience of my life. ❤️ The soundtrack and original score are also both fantastic and the mid credits stinger is just the icing on the cake.

If you love Comic Books (I'm a Marvel Fan too

It's not a film that you watch to relax. It doesn't care in the slightest about whether you're enjoying yourself, and it doesn't give a fig for your notions of entertainment or your mental well-being. If you just watch movies for fun, this isn't for you, and no amount of insistence on my part is going to change that. But if you're interested in the limits of the cinematic form – to see just how focused, how pure and how uncompromising in its vision a film can be – Suicide Squad is unmissable. If you take the time to get into Suicide Squad’s mindset, to begin to understand the twisted way in which it operates and taste the rewards behind its cruelest plot twists, this is one of the most thrilling, most fascinating and most completely absorbing experiences in cinema.

This movie is junk, messy, and grossly nonsensical.
There are no good and memorable scenes and you fall asleep in the middle of the movie.One-on-one characterizations are worse.
The only strengths of Margo Robbie are Will Smith and two Batman scenes.

Coming back to write this review years after I saw it because it still bothers me how bad it was. I'm assuming now the whole introduction of characters thing is maybe a stylistic thing from the original cartoon Suicide Squad? I still think it was dumb and felt like a filler episode of a TV show. The new Suicide Squad also did something similar but they did it in a much more effective and entertaining way and the story is at least way better. Don't feel like movie had any sort of story with any depth and we as an audience didn't care what happened to any of the characters. Glad they made a much better reboot recently. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is quite an entertaining watch, in terms of the CGI/visual effects and action scenes, although I did feel the plot wasn't always entirely clear and I did feel like the film dragged a bit towards the end. However, I liked the range of characters and their different personalities - most notably the Joker and of course Harley Quinn. I was somehow surprised to see Will Smith playing Deadshot. The (superhero, or, more accurately, super-villain) characters made me think of the Fantastic Four. It's very much got a hyperactive and energetic feel to it, not just with the action scenes but with information provided in neon text shown, if anything, frustratingly briefly and with some scenes featuring bright lighting.

It's quite watchable, with decent battle scenes and the like and some amusing situations/moments but it's not the sort of film I'm likely to remember a great deal about shortly after seeing it. It's an entertaining watch with decent enough performances and the like and I imagine if you're a fan of the original comic books then you'd appreciate this (perhaps more than I do). Certainly not bad, I'd recommend this, if it appeals to you, yes.

The Suicide Squad Album also benefits from major tracks, some definitely in the perfect tone for the movie but also others that don't fit at all.

First of all there is something truly repelling about charcters in general: I found the Joker awful (I mean obviously not in the right 'awful way'), Batman looks so old and tired (plus he doesn't appear on screen more than 10 minutes, post-credit scene included), Harley Quinn is depicted in one of the most irritating way in addition to constantly be over-sexualized, Killer Croc is ridiculously thin and unimpressive despite the amamzing effect of the texture of his face and skin. However I don't get why he is licking himself and some objects from time to time. Seems to be that way in order to make him more repellent.

What is the most undeniable is the incredible lack of quality of 'Suicide Squad': the pace is really bad, the humour is as silly, lame and uneffective as dialogues, the scenario is unstructured, characters are all stereotyped, there are numerous unbearable cringy moments, many inconsistencies and the movie becomes incomprehensibly emotional as you get closer to the unforgettably predictable end. Despite these flaws I also can't deny the interesting flashbacks from Harley and Deadshot, an interesting artistic direction.

And the potentialAfter watching the movie in the cinema, I was a little disappointed, I expected more. But after reviewing it at home, I came to the conclusion that the film was still a success, despite the incompletely revealed potential. And the potential of the project was huge. It was not possible to reach the declared highest bar, but even so, the film is good enough.

Regarding the Joker, Heath Ledger's level was not achieved, but this is not Jared Leto's fault. Here, the Joker does not have a key role, as in The Dark Knight, and enough screen time. There he acted as a very cunning madman, but here he turned out to be just a madman. And in this role, Jared played perfectly.

Special effects, camera work and other components are at a traditionally high level for this kind of films. As a result, despite the fact that the masterpiece did not work out, we have before us a funny, entertaining, sometimes even touching blockbuster that is worth watching.

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

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Второй самый недооценённый фильм кино вселенной DC (после бэтмена против супермена на заре справедливости). Многие ругают этот фильм за ВСЁ! Хотя мне лично он понравился, сразу говорю, никакого ВАУ эффекта не будет, от фильма вы быстро отвыкнете, но это не значит то что он плохой, но и сверх хорошим его тоже я не могу назвать. В первую очередь для меня главное в фильмах это сюжет, в этом фильме сюжет настолько прост, что в середине фильм превращается в обыкновенный шутер, и диалоги, за которыми интересно наблюдать, битвы конечно тоже выполнены не плохо, но когда всё смотришь на них без всякого разнообразия, тебя это уже не забавляет. Ещё из минусов отметил бы графику, спецэффекты которые на момент 2016 года выглядели не плохо, но не современно, сейчас же это смотрится просто терпимо. Ещё фильм ощутился мне каким до не полноценным, филлером, хотя это не так, опять таки это из за слабого сюжета. За что реально можно похвалить картину - это персонажи и их актёрский состав, и саундтрек, он просто шикарен, особенно главная музыка фильма, которая начинает проигрывать в первых титрах. Expand

I saw it with my dad day one it came out. As it's own thing, it is a decent movie and at times, it is even of above average quality. It's an okay movie with a serviceable story and well developed characters in Will Smith and the Suicide squad. I really enjoyed the dynamic between characters. I think DC fans were expecting something else out of this movie, and those expectations led them to conclude it is a "trash fire". But it really isn't as bad as many people say, and I think the general movie goer isn't going to find this movie boring. At the least, it is worth one watch to challenge your expectations, so If you feel like doing so about something people say is bad, but is... perfectly below average (a 6 as appose to a 2), I would say give this one a shot. As I said, it's not great, not amazing, but perfectly below average, certainly not a trash fire. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A colorful movie in which Will Smith shows again what a great actor he is.
In the whole movie, he gradually seems to take control like he's leading the whole team.

And about the team, the villains, I've known some of them from DC and comics, some of them were similar to heroes from other sagas (maybe even copies), and all-in-all, the outlaws make up a team, with all the inherent clichés, to take the mission to success or die trying.

I've pretty liked the movie, as I just saw it for the second time, and although it has its critics, maybe I've liked it just because I was used to some characters already.

The music is well picked.

Given all the negative reviews over the years I nearly switched over but the film held my attention and turned out to be really rather good. It’s edgier than the Marvel universe movies and the characterisations, special effects and plot were engaging from start to finish. Great ensemble cast and definitely above average movie. Expand

Suicide Squad fails to impress the audience with it's lazy script and dialogues. There really is no story behind this movie, apart from the good acting by Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn and Will Smith as Deadshot, this movie is a major let down.

I'll get this straight - I didn't know what Suicide Squad was before this movie came. When it first came out I thought it was just another action movie.

When it first came out I thought it was just another action movie. But later I got to know that Joker will also be in it then I realised it's a DC movie. And not just any other DC movie, it's a follow-up to Batman v Superman. I watched this movie only to see Joker, and guess what? It's the only thing I didn't get to see. Then I watched it a second time after getting my facts clear. And guess what? I still didn't like it.

I thought Suicide Squad is supposed to be something I'm too immature to understand about, but then I saw Suicide Squad: Hell to Pay, an episode from Season 2 in Arrow where the Suicide Squad is shown, and the trailers of both The Suicide Squad and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. Turns out it's an excellent story, which got completely butchered thanks to studio meddling and poor character design.

The characters are straight up awful. Only Harley Quinn and Deadshot were good, and that's saying something because in reality Killer Croc is my favourite character out of them all. I hated Katana the most, since she seemed to have a plot armour and yet she didn't help in anything. Amanda Waller was absolutely hateable because of how she behaved. Amanda is supposed to be a jerk, yes. But she doesn't kill her own people. And Captain Boomerang. Oh my God, how they massacred my boy! The other characters like Rick Flag, I don't even know who they are, and the movie gave me no reason to care about them.

The villains, however, were awesome. I was rooting for them, because they looked and behaved way better. Even their henchmen were cool. I wanted them to beat up the Suicide Squad and show them their place. But sadly it's a generic good guys win and bad guys lose movie, so I had no other option but to deal with it.

Many people are saying that if The Ayer Cut is released this movie will become good. I want to ask them, do you think The Ayer Cut is something like The Snyder Cut? No, it will be more like Batman v Superman: Ultimate Edition, with only added runtime to explain everything and give more runtime to Joker, but it won't change the director's original vision. That will still remain the same. I may care about the characters more, but the fact that Katana and Harley Quinn have a plot armour and that no one died except Captain Boomerang won't change.

Although I'm no expert, so I do want The Ayer Cut to release. I will watch it and then I may come back to change my review. But for now, it's gonna be a bad movie for me.

The writing of the first act is probably the most terrible thing I've seen in any movie ever. It's seriously 30 minutes of exposition montages explaining each character. The second act serves as a generic shooting fest that serves to move on the movie but just barely. What small amount of good character arcs that are in the film are easily distracted by useless characters wasting screen time. What a total waste of the premise and the cast. On the plus it sure beats staring at a blank screen for two hours. It's partially enjoyable in the way it's so bad it's kind of funny to watch. Expand

The acting is oddly enough the best part of this movie. But everything else just makes no sense.

The perfect way to explain this is that the first 43 minutes of the movie is just a character introduction.. And at the end of that 43 minutes, I still don't care about a single person in this movie.....

Well, that movie left no impression on me.
I felt nothing.

Just a bunch of images playing on my screen, causing absolutely no emotional reaction.

I kinda feel bad rating it so low, because there were things I liked about it (the actors do pretty fine job) and it wasn't painful to watch like Justice League,
but the fact that I couldn't tell you a thing about the plot, the villain or any of the characters says a lot about the true quality of this movie.

This felt so **** rushed.
I thought I sat on the fast-forward button.

Overall, more than anything, this was just really boring.

Still better than Justice League though.

Short introduction: The Suicide Squad in DC comics is a bunch ofAn enjoyable movie that has good action, humor and a great cast. However it has some problems that lead to the mixed reception. 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

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A film that relies on pure action and a good soundtrack only became popular because of the DC characters featured in this joke of a movie. The movie fails to make me care about the characters, even with backstories, the attempt of making me feel bad for the villains and making them all appear to be "good" dulled down the tone for me. Character casting and costume/makeup were the shining stars of this film and made the trip to the theaters somewhat worth it. I noticed many unnecessary parts of this film especially the inclusion of The Joker who added nothing but filler to this film. The main "villain" of this film was so forgettable that all I truly remember of her is how she looked, I felt no need to root for either side in the battles. A pointless movie for the plot of DC and only happened because of Superman's "death" in Batman vs Superman. A dead-end movie that only worsens DC's name and makes viewers feel embarrassed as they walk out of the theater. I feel truly sorry for anyone who was introduced to DC through this movie and I hope DC forgets about this failed attempt. Expand

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 writing is horrendous, several characters are brought in for no apparent reason (Katana and Killer Croc come to mind as both serve very little relevance to the plot), and the general plot of this movie has me questioning why I should care about it.

While Smith and Robbie shine as making the most of their characters and delivering performances that have me excited for the future of their characters, the rest of the cast falls prey to poor writing and does little to try to make the most of it. In addition the third act of this film is a sequence of CGI fights that are immediately forgettable and nothing short of sheer disappointing.

Following the criticism of Batman v Superman and Man of Steel for being "too dark", the producers of this film attempted to mimic Marvel's style of superhero film that is full of action and quips, but ultimately falls flat on its face. If any film in the DCEU is supposed to have a dark, grim tone, this is it, but reshoots and creative differences amongst the producers of this film create an inconsistent tone that makes it hard to follow.

The soundtrack is random and rarely appropriate for the scene its matched with while the film feels like it is more about setting up the future of the DCEU (a future that is now just as muddy as the plot of this film) rather than telling a coherent story.

Now to address the elephant in the room: the Joker. Jared Leto's Joker is far from the best representation of the Joker that we have seen on the screen and it might quite possibly be the worst. However I do believe that his iteration of the character is not complete trash as others would have you believe. Drawing from Golden Age source material (as opposed to Ledger's bronze/modern age interpretation), Leto's performance successfully portrays the "gangster" archetype of the Joker from that period. Nevertheless, this is not the correct version of the Joker and Leto does fail to deliver a praiseworthy performance.

Suicide Squad is a mess. The DCEU is a mess. You're better off investing time in the MCU or rewatching the Dark Knight trilogy until the mess is cleaned up.

The movie tries to accomplish too many things at once. It tries to be both lighthearted, funny and at the same time serious, and emotional. It only comes off as a ridiculous collection of horrible cliches.
The writing is bad, the directing is
The movie tries to accomplish too many things at once. It tries to be both lighthearted, funny and at the same time serious, and emotional. It only comes off as a ridiculous collection of horrible cliches.
The writing is bad, the directing is bad, and when these two things are bad - the actors, as good as they are, can't fix it. There is some pretty good acting - but their lines are horrible.
The characters are so hollow and empty - at no point in the movie was I ever convinced, even for a minute, than any character was genuine. They all behaved shifting irregularly between overdoses of eccentricity, and overdoses of seriousness.
The plot was mellow, to say the least.
The ending was so bad, so cliched, I found myself grimacing, cringing, and actually fast-forwarding an overly-smeared moment of undeserved slow-motion.
Nothing can fix bad writing combined with bad directing.
I felt genuinely sad for the actors that agreed to take part in this ridiculous creation.
I find it very sad, that managers in charge of such magnificent intellectual property characters can't find it in their minds to be original.
I kept remembering how brilliant, deep, and incredibly convincing The Dark Knight movie was, and I believe a good writer, with a good director, and obviously all this needs a competent producer - could come up with a movie to blow the audience's minds and last for years and years. The Batman proved it possible.
Suicide Squad feels like the production didn't even aim high, honestly - they knew people would pay money to see a high-budget super-villain movie, so nobody really cared if the movie itself was a complete disaster.
And this is exactly what Suicide Squad is: an unimpressive disaster of the worst kind: the boring, cliched, daddy-jokes kind.
No need to even begin to watch this - just go watch clips of the Joker & Harley on youtube - because those moments are as good as the movie gets. The rest is unnecessary garbage.

If I could say one good thing about this movie it lives up to its title. It makes me want to die
