Went on opening night and hated almost everything about it. I liked Will Smith, he was in vintage form. The rest of the characters were stale at best or cartoonish at worst. Leto's Joker was off the charts terrible. Can't decide who's worse, Eisenberg's Lex or Leto's Joker. Lame villain (who completely outclassed the heroes and made no sense in the story), major plot holes and uninteresting characters for the most part. (Exceptions are Deadshot and Katana. I would've watched a Katana film.)
Thing is (and I've mentioned this before, I know), the comicon Suicide Squad trailer was (and remains) one of the best trailers I've ever seen. Finally, the DCEU property actually suited for the 'grim & gritty' tone set by the previous films. Then the other trailers were released and revealed how awful the movie was. At least I knew what to expect when I walked into the theater. There were elements I tried to enjoy, but the movie was just garbage.
All that said, the credits rolled and most of the theater applauded. (Maybe they were just glad it was over?) My wife and I looked at each other and shrugged. So to answer your question, yes, some people enjoyed Suicide Squad. It just wasn't for me.

It's not great. I enjoyed parts of it, but on the whole it was too cute by half. And Will Smith sucks.

Good point, ReyKahuka, I hadn't considered that the DCEU has now given us the worst representations of its two major villains.
Not a good start.

I didn't hate it, but I didn't like it. It was pretty average. Easily the worst of the DCEU.
