Una idea original con protagonistas excelentes, rodeados de personajes inútiles que además tienen una historia pésimamente desarrollada y unos enemigos horribles, pero divertida.

Suicide Squad is fun! Although I believe it didn't live up to the hype especially concerning the almighty villain and the climax, it still has enough funny moments and action to keep anyone, even those not fans of the comics, entertained.

Loved what the characters brought to the movie, including the Joker (minus his tattoos and Killer Croc's size). This movie is a step above BvS, and head over heals better than X-Men Apocalypse. Again though, disappointed with the undeveloped bad guy/girl of the movie which had an ending on par with the Fantastic Four. If WB allowed a little more thought into their DC movies storyline in combination with the characters already shown, these DC movies could be great.… Expand

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, побегомИ 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… Expand

Jared Leto's The Joker is reduced to some tattooed guy with golden teeth and cadenas, at least he is a psychopath and maniac as always but is mostly absent from this movie. Will Smith's Deadshot is a decent and grounded character. Margot Robbie's performance as Harley Quinn is better than I expected, but still not great. Everything and everyone else though is garbage.

Who on their right mind, let alone a government, would recruit a band of sentenced criminals, murderers and super villains as disposable assets to conduct black ops and save the world? Yep, that's the idea, even in the comics. As for the movie's plot, don't bother. It's by far the silliest movie plot I have ever experienced.… Expand

Escuadrón suicida es una de las peliculas mas esperadas de este verano del universo DC, basada en los comics con el mismo nombre, donde un grupo de indeseables criminales , son reclutados por Amanda Waller, una agente sin escrupulos y friaEscuadrón suicida es una de las peliculas mas esperadas de este verano del universo DC, basada en los comics con el mismo nombre, donde un grupo de indeseables criminales , son reclutados por Amanda Waller, una agente sin escrupulos y fria como el hielo, para hacer misiones peligrosas o para hacer el trabajo sucio del país sin implicarse ella o el gobierno de los Estados Unidos.

Y como siempre, las criticas contra ella por ser de DC, no han sorprendido, desde el punto de vista de quien escribe, sabia que hiciesen lo que hiciesen le caerian leches, la gran pregunta es...esas leches además recibidas por dicha web, ¿son merecidas?, la respuesta corta es NO. La larga es NO, pero....

Para empezar, el resultado no deja de ser una película de entretenimiento veraniego o blockbuster simplón, como cualquier película de este tipo de superheroes, algo que creo que Ayer se dió cuenta, que debía utilizar la formula Marvel, es decir, película comercial con guión sencillito, pero usando el tono ese mas oscuro y lo utilizó con un resultado, que se podría definir con un “progresa adecuadamente” rozando el “necesita mejorar”.

Un guión sencillito como el solo, pocos giros de guión, cameos de rigor, escenas de acción buenas y algún gag resultón, en ese aspecto, la película lo hace bien, pero no lo remata y se queda el film en algo mediocre, anodino y olvidable al salir del cine, como todas estas pelis de superheroes. Antes de empezar a leerle la cartilla primero destacamos lo positivo del film, los personajes principales me han gustado, los protagonistas del film son Deadshot y Harley Quinn, Amanda Waller y el Joker en sus pocas escenas,son los amos de la función y Will Smith emana carisma por todos sus poros, sorprende el tono y el respeto al material hasta cierto momento del film, sorprende la acción del film, muy bien hecha y elaborada, y chapó el guiño a Alex Ross, esos matices hacen a la película encantadora.

Pero, la película tiene una serie de defectos, uno de los que mas me tocaba la narices es el doblaje del Joker...ES UNA PUTISIMA MIERDA, Habla como el de ESH UNA FIESHTA, ¿en serio? Os habéis cargado al Joker con ese doblaje de mierda. Y los personajes, restantes muy desdibujados y desarrollados pobremente, Capitán Boomerang esta fatal metido y muy precipitado y Slipknot para lo que hace, podíais haberoslo ahorrado.

El cacareado montaje, es el gran problema del film, a ver entiendo el rollo Snatch para darle ese tono “malote” o gamberril, Snatch o los films de Ritchie son un referente de ese tipo de ideas y movidas visuales, ese tipo de rollo de montaje con Flashbacks y escenas potentes, no le veo mal ahí. Pero al igual que le pasaba a Batman v Superman, el montaje se nota, muchos saltos, algunos momentos se toman su tiempo y de repente, se pone a toda leche, todo precipitado y no sabes que ha pasado, un problema bastante critico, que de ahí han venido las leches. Recomendaría muchisimo que los señores de Warner dejen un poco de libertad o se aclaren, porque así lo que hacen es fastidiar películas, con mucho potencial en productos mediocres o fallidos.

En conclusión, un film con mucho potencial, desaprovechado y caído a las garras de la mediocridad, mas absoluta. Esperemos que saquen un directors cut, con la versión de Ayer, y podamos ver su verdadera visión y ver...quien tenía razón, si Ayer o Warner.… Expand

The trailers and hype focused on the characters and commissioning, leaving the core story a mystery. In all fairness it worked. But, after the movie I realized there wasn't a mystery. What seemed to be the central plot sat in the background out of focus until the very end and was disappointing and cliche when it arrived. That left the rest of the movie's focus on character development and team building scenarios. Unless you're satisfied with the trailer introductions the character dev was quick, short and shallow forming little connection with audience interest. Perhaps it was trying to accomplish too much with too many characters. Most of the characters I found interesting had very little screen time which was disappointing. I really wanted to like this movie. I am one of the few that really enjoyed BvS, so it's not a slam DC thing. I think the best place for SS is in a Netflix series where it can be given more time to grow and give time for character dev.… Expand

The film itself was what I would refer to as a Sunday night background flick. The film is fun, and had a certain entertainment value when I watched it. However the past few DC films have not been up to the standard which they should have been. The screenwriting for Suicide Squad was all over the place. The casting was perfect, however it very much felt as if there was too much going on at some points, and too little at others. The film lacked consistency. For this film there must be a directors cut coming out as some of the things that we were shown in trailers weren't even in the film.

The soundtrack for the film was all over the place also, with DC trying to "Marvel" too hard. There were segments reminiscent of deadpool, and others reminiscent of Guardians of the Galaxy.

The films humour felt very forced, and when I laughed it wasn't a "haha that's funny", but a ha... That's awkward. It is was just forced throughout.

That's not to say that I wouldn't watch this film again. The film overall was okay, but not this perfect grail that the DC fanboys are hyping. As a generic movie goer, this film is definitely worth watching for the entertainment value, and I would say for Will Smith's deadshot alone. He plays the role very well. However don't go in with high expectations, or you'll end up leaving feeling as if you've been let down.

Just as a disclaimer also, this is in no way an attack on DC films. Man of steel and BvS were awful, but DC in the past have made brilliant movies. E.G The Dark Knight Trilogy. And one can only hope they will hit that standard again.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. How bad that **** was ? It was on some F'ntastic Four level ****

It was cliché, and poorly written, the characters were poorly written
too, except Deadshot, Waller and Croc. And Diablo... The Harley-Joker
relation was hilarious. Talking about Harley, she was average, really,
and all the corny lines OMG.

"Ooooh you're hot" Yes The Joker said it. The **** Joker Jared Leto
created said it... God. Not as near as Heath ledger performance, the
comparison can't exist

Enchantress was a great villain, but the lines... Thanks Ayer for
ruining her, she was dandling herself like an ancient Indian princess
or something, her lines were corny (like all the lines in this movie)
and the way she was dealt with was... well **** and cliché, so
cliché, how can you do that with a movie that much waited ? The
slow-mo, the corny music, the emotional ohnothatsmydaughter part...

The filmwriting was... **** amateur-ish, really, it was just a hot
mess. Nothing made actual sense...The music choices were cliché and
****, this movie is like a **** cliché action movie for touchy
teenagers

Ugh 4/10. Because the Movie is good if you turn off your brain… Expand

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!… Expand

Also, there is many beautiful and interesting scenes, especially good is the scene at the bar, and what happened after it.

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!… Expand

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.

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.

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.

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.

TheThis is the first superhero movie (eh...villiain?) that I dozed off.The plot is very messy in my oponion. The characters are indeed interesting and have room to develop but they were not explored and soon faded into the background. The antagonist choice is also weird. Why do you have a group full of mortals that have only super skills like throwing or shooting but doesn't have any superpower (except Diablo, his power is pretty cool) going up against a powerful, full of magic villian? Don't you need at least a few of those who have superpower to deal with that?

I think it will be more interesting if they busting the whole org of mafia or some underworld gangs in my oponion.

The humour is quite alright I guess. But some are a little bit cringy.

And again, the plot is very messy.

After watching this movie, I feel very conflicted whether it is meh or just bad. But one thing I would admit though, DC's PR team is incredibly good. They already sold out the movie even before it released. They made awesome trailers, tons of promotion works and successfully make everyone hype as f. Batman v Superman and Suicide Squad, even Marvel's PR team seems useless compared to them. So +1 to DC's PR team.… Expand

This 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 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.… Expand

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.… Expand

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.… Expand

Acting, for the most part, on point. Costumes on point. Only thing that bothered me was the watering down the Harley/Joker relationship.

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.

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.… Expand

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… 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.

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.

We all know the history of Suicide Squad’s production. Jared Leto (Dallas Buyers Club) went through meticulous preparation for his role as the Joker, including mailing a live rat to his onscreen girlfriend, Margot Robbie (The Wolf of WallWe all know the history of Suicide Squad’s production. Jared Leto (Dallas Buyers Club) went through meticulous preparation for his role as the Joker, including mailing a live rat to his onscreen girlfriend, Margot Robbie (The Wolf of Wall Street). Women all over were cosplaying as Harley Quinn months before this film even was completed. A group of fans formed a petition to shut down RottenTomatoes after critics gave it a 35% rating only three days before its release. So now, it’s time to ask: was it worth all the hubabaloo?

Essentially, in this first ever villain ensemble picture, these imprisoned denizens of the law are temporarily released from their cells for a top secret mission. The government is already worried of another Superman coming to earth, so they have no other options besides rely on these metahumans to stop a typical extra-dimensional villain from creating yet another doomsday over the world. If they succeed, they get ten years off their prison sentence. If they fail, they die.

The result is an edgier version of Guardians of the Galaxy, except without the fun, fascinating imagery, impressive CGI, or anything else that makes this stand out as its own entity. Like any other action movie these days, it resorts to constant close-up motion sickness in all the action scenes, overusing noisy colors and upbeat pop music to add flavor. The entire first forty minutes is a meticulous bore to manage through, as it overuses backstory exposition and flashback on every single character. And yes, I do mean every single one. Anyways, after this torturous, lengthy intro, the movie finally gets started with the villains gearing up for their mission under the supervision of the CIA. It’s a pretty wild ride if you are an expert at keeping track of ten different subplots from one-dimensional characters fighting for the audience’s attention.

The team is not full of the biggest failures known to mankind, but they’re not going to be remembered within an hour after the first meeting. From what I remembered, there was a masked Japanese warrior named Katana (Karen Fukuhara) whose husband is trapped in her sword. There was also an offensive Australian stereotype named Captain Boomerang (Jai Courtney) who exists for no reason besides comic relief. Then there was Killer Croc (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje), who does next to nothing memorable besides being rolled in a restraining harness like Hannibal Lecter. Then there was the skeleton-tatted El Diablo (Jay Hernandez), who stands out with his surprisingly tragic backstory. Then there was the governmental supervisor of the squad (Viola Davis) who likes to control them as their god.

The squad does have a couple of redeeming members who want something out of their mission. El Diablo is certainly one, but the rogue gunman Deadshot (Will Smith) makes one of the film’s greater impressions. Now, it’s not to say that Will Smith was any good in the role, because he honestly does exactly the same routine as all his 90’s roles. Even his character’s backstory feels clichéd to Smith’s type of character. He has a daughter, you see, and she does not approve of his murderous lifestyle. She even puts her own life at risk to stop her father from killing anyone else. It feels pretty sweet, but haven’t we seen this before?

Now as for Jared Leto’s highly anticipated performance as the Joker, I hate to break it to you: he let me down. With all we have heard about what he did to prepare for his role to make it his own, the crew barely gives him any useful material to work off of. The closest thing to disturbing he gets to is laughing like a pedophile inside a circle of knives.

Everyone thought he would be the best part of the movie, but you know what was the best part? Not the Joker, but the Joker’s lil’ monster. Margot Robbie is both deliciously seductive and delightfully psychotic as Harley Quinn, balancing that behavior with a girly innocence to generate a believable romance with the clown prince of crime. She has the only flashbacks that I was okay with seeing, particularly one where she willfully jumps into a vat of chemicals for a twisted make-out session with her beau. Sure, she may have been a bit too sexualized for what her character called for, but I would have much preferred her to be the sole main character than to have five different leads.

We’ve never seen anything quite like this movie, and I’m sure this will not be the last supervillain ensemble picture. I’m sure that the crimes that Suicide Squad has committed on storytelling will not remain in the public’s memories, but I already presume a long and successful screen career for the fresh Margot Robbie.… 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

It's not a comic book masterpiece, but at the same time, I've seen WAAAAAAAAAAAY worse movies in 2016. Was the editing a mess? Oh yeah. Was Enchantress a weak villain? Yup. Was the Joker severely underused? HELL YES.

In fact, let's talk about Jared Leto's Joker for a bit, because I actually liked what Jared Leto was going for. But here's the problem, and I think it's probably the reason why a lot of people think it was Jared Leto's fault. The Joker was never given context. He's just put in some random scenes where he's doing something weird and we never see the full context of what he's doing.

For example, for the longest time, I never thought the quote "Why so serious" from The Dark Knight was a clever quote on its own. It's actually kinda silly if you just say "Why so serious" out of nowhere. BUT, when you put that quote in the context of the scene where the Joker is telling his "origin story", "Why so serious" now has weight to it. There's a reason for it to be said. And that's the same with Jared Leto as the Joker, his scenes are never given context, therefore we THINK it's Jared Leto that's the problem.

It's not Jared Leto's fault, it's not the directing, and I don't even think it's the writing for his dialogue. The problem was the fact that the Joker wasn't the villain of the movie. And you know how it would make the movie better?

Well for starters, it would make more sense for the Suicide Squad to even be a thing. How in the world can a chick with a baseball bat, a crocodile man, a guy who shoots really well, a guy who can climb a rope, a chick with a sword, a dude who can spew fire from his hands, and a dude with a boomerang possibly stop the next Superman? It would make a lot more sense for the Suicide Squad to go on missions like stopping the Joker. Mainly because while he's too dangerous for regular cops, the Suicide Squad can actually take him in a fight!

Secondly, it would create more (good) drama! Since Harley Quinn and the Joker are a couple, it would create more of an internal conflict for Harley Quinn. Help out in the mission or help out her Puddin'? This would be so cool to see!

And finally, like I said before, it would give Jared Leto's Joker more context. If he was the villain instead of Enchantress, it would not only be better for the story, but I truly believe people wouldn't be as hard on Jared Leto for his performance.

All in all, I like Suicide Squad. It's a perfectly okay film.… Expand

Acting: 7
Plot: 5

The third instalment in DC Extended Universe took a different direction and features supervillains as main characters instead of usual superheroes which have they been face of the superhero genre for many years. For this review, I will be writing based on the Extended Cut, instead of the theatrical version.

After the death of Superman as depicted in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Amanda Waller (Davis) pitches her ideas to US military officials about forming a team of dangerous criminals known as Task Force X under her command where they will be put to good use for black ops and highly dangerous missions for the US government. The team members are consists of Floyd Lawton/Deadshot (Smith), Harleen Quinzel/Harley Quinn (Robbie), Digger Harkness/Captain Boomerang, Chato Santana/El Diablo, Waylon Jones/Killer Croc, Christopher Weiss/Slipknot and Dr. June Moone/Enchantress.

The Enchantress is a demonic entity who actually possessed Dr. Moone sometimes ago during her archaeology expedition and prior to her recruitment to the team, goes rogue and frees her brother, Incubus, who was sealed in an ancient idol under the Waller’s possession. Together, they attack Midway City and transform civilians into monsters as part of her plans to eradicate the humans for imprisoning her long ago.

Task Force X is assembling immediately with Colonel Rick Flag as team leader and Tatsu Yamashiro/Katana as last minute addition of team member. Waller gives the team their first mission which is to extract a HVT (high value target) out of the city. If they succeed, they will get some time off from prison sentence. Should they attempt to escape or rebel during the mission, the nanite bomb implanted into their neck earlier will explode and die. Meanwhile, Joker and his gang are planning a rescue mission to save Harley.

Margot Robbie’s performance of Harley Quinn stole the spotlight in this movie. She was simply amazing and she is definitely born to play the character. Will Smith’s take on Deadshot is good despite the race change but I felt his version of the character is way too similar to his other action movie roles he have done in his career. Unfortunately, I was disappointed that Jared Leto’s role as Joker was totally underused and does not contribute much in the plot. Since Joker has been A-list character and main villain in previous DC movies, this is purely a wasted opportunity for him to shine.

The plot of the movie should have been better but it served as more of a side stories which you have the option to skip it if you want. Having Joker as the main villain would have made the movie more interesting and fun while Enchantress could have been use for future Suicide Squad movies. Using a lighter tone for Suicide Squad does not really fit them since they are supervillains and having R rated instead of PG-13 rated. On the good side, the costumes, makeup and hairstyling are great especially Killer Croc, Harley Quinn and even Joker which makes them more similar to their comic book counterparts.

The Extended Cut does not really make any difference because it does not really contributed much to the plot and does not restored many scenes that have been cut from the theatrical version. Even worst, there are not many scenes restored for Joker which further proved that he was wasted in this movie. You won’t miss anything much if you are watching the Extended Cut. Last but not least, be sure to stay back for a mid-credits scene.… Expand

Yet another movie where the characters work well and the cast are good but the end of the movie completely falls apart with the terrible main villain and weak script.

This movie is carried by outstanding performances from Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn and Will Smith as Deadshot, however its final act was disappointingly choppy and messy.

"Suicide Squad" had everything to be a good movie, but ends up wavering in avoidable mistakes. There is no better motivation for Amanda Waller to bring together the main characters, for example.

There is no better motivation for Amanda Waller to bring together the main characters, for example. Jared Leto's acting as the Joker turns out to be very bad, as do Jai Courtney and Cara Delenvigne (who was not the right actress for her role). The script is also very shallow and does not captivate as much as it could.

But it's not all bad. We have the great performances of Margot Robbie and Viola Davis, and the good performance of Will Smith. Also has the great soundtrack and impeccable makeup service (despite the controversial Oscar win, the work is very well done) and costume design.… Expand

After Dawn of Justice i didn't expected a lot, and i still was disappointed. There were only three good things in this movie. Will Smith, Margot Robie and music. Wasted potential.

Suicide Squad is entertaining, not good, not bad. But it'll probably leave a good taste because you won't be bored during those two hours.

Note:4.8
A film poor in script, direction, dialogue,a meaningless villain, which quickly seasick.
Only the beginning, post-credits scene and the performances of Margot Robbie and Will Smith who are saved.

As a fan of DC, I was disappointed a little. The reason of making the squad was completely sucks. The cast was brilliant, except for Jared Leto. It wasn't that bad, but it's not The Joker we deserve! It was really comedy and fun. And the CGIAs a fan of DC, I was disappointed a little. The reason of making the squad was completely sucks. The cast was brilliant, except for Jared Leto.

unlike Batman v Superman, which was a borefest, this is a fun, action packed movie from start to finish with a few comedic moments to balance it out. Harley Quinn definatly steals the show, but the one misfire would be Will Smith as Deadshot,unlike Batman v Superman, which was a borefest, this is a fun, action packed movie from start to finish with a few comedic moments to balance it out.

I loved the concept of the movie and the casting was quite good I'm surprised that I enjoyed Will Smith in this role, must say I think Cara wasn't a great choice as Villain, Margot Robbie WOW excellent casting and a very good portrayal.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Suicide Squad... This movie was a helicopter wreck. It fills itself with cringey moments, poor writing, and bad editing. It's one of those things that makes you think, "How did we get here? How did something with so much potential end up in such a horrible state?" It is a mystery to all but executives, but one thing is for certain. This movie failed on every level, be it emotional, productional, and plotwise. One of these particular reasons could be that Warner Bros saw such rotten responses for Batman V Superman for being too serious, ending up in an even worse trainwreck than Suicide Squad. They recognized the complaints of their audience, and made the swift decision to have massive reshoots to make Suicide Squad more lighthearted, costing upwards of 22 million dollars. Pack that in with the fact that they hired a trailer company to edit their movie, and you've got a failed blockbuster on your hands. But it isn't just the editing or the strange sense that you're watching two movies edited together, making for a tone that's neither comedic nor dramatic. This movie, like other DCEU movies, suffers from an influx of characters whom we have no attachment to. This sort of kills the stakes. Nearly every character in this movie has never been seen on screen before this movie. This takes away any emotion we could have for any of them. Characters are introduced very swiftly, only to die minutes later. Some characters shouldn't even be on the Suicide Squad, most notably Katana, but they just show up to join the crew. The way most characters are introduced is perhaps one of the worst things I've seen in a movie. Amanda Waller reads their name off a paper as we see an animatic of the character being introduced with their character traits on the screen beside them. The movie introduces characters to you by telling you their character traits in a couple sentences. That's the most egregious examples of telling, not showing. The exact opposite of what you want. Needlesly expositing information like that is horrific. Of course, perhaps it could have been forgiven if the characters were interesting, and for a select few, you can sort of get behind them. Will Smith's Killshot and Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn are somewhat interesting and portayed well by their actors. But for the most part, most of the characters are struggling to deliver their lines in a proper way. That's not really on the actor's part, though, because most of the lines in this movie are so ridiculous, that it would be impossible to deliver them properly. They've leaned so far into the comedic side that they lost the comedy and simply become a broken mess that doesn't even be serious when it needed to be. ||A scene in which the Suicide Squad are in a building with Waller, whom they're supposed to rescuing, sees Waller shoot the FBI agents who are with her. This should be a very serious moment, and the movie almost reflects this. But it ruins it with a joke made by Will Smith's Deadshot. This is exactly what is wrong with this movie.|| This movie follows a very basic superhero plot, following this team go into a city to stop a villain from destroying the world with a skybeam. This isn't nessasarily a bad thing. But when it's carried on in a messy, choppy way that doesn't have *any* new ideas, it doesn't work. This movie carried itself in a way that didn't care about it's audience, and in the end, Suicide Squad is a failed attempt at what could have been a fantastic movie.… Expand

this film is horrible, nothing here is good, except Arlerquina and Amanda Waler, both have strong personalities and great highlights, but the film itself is very bad.
