After hearing how many people saying how bad and dissapointing it was Im glad to say I do not agree. I had blast watching it. In fact it was the most fun I had watching a film in a while. I thought Will Smith and Margot Robbie were great. It was entertaining from begining to end and lots of good action as well. My only complaint is the Joker. Not to fond of Letos version. I will take Ledger or Nicholson any day thanks.
9/10 from me. What did you all think?

I thought it wasn't too bad as many made it out to be, but I did found it to be a mediocre movie overall. Will Smith's and Margot Robbie's characters were the best part about that movie, especially their backstories. The Batfleck cameos were good. I also liked some of the other characters in the ensemble. I thought Leto's Joker was so-so and found Enchantress to be the worst character (or actress) in the movie. Some parts were fun to watch while other parts felt too uneven, like some editing and pacing issues (the movie had last minute studio interference). And the story felt weak in places.
So 6/10. Two points higher than how I would rate the latest Ghostbusters.

that's cool man, I have to give it like a 6.5, because I liked the squad itself, but the movie around them.......not so much.

Leto's Joker should've been given the full screen time to suss out whether it was decent or not. Overall I thought it was an alright film aside from that; the "reveal" at the end seemed forced and corny too.

I figure that would account for him being one of the main guys. |

I thought it was alright, could have been a lot better. Harley Quinn was done well but I wasn't too big on Leto's Joker. He was a great choice for the role but I hated the juggalo Hot Topic clerk look and the fact that he was just another generic mob boss villain, as if Batman didn't have enough of those and now his main adversary is one too *sigh*.

Yeah I thought Harley Quinn was great but Joker was not my taste. Nicholson, Ledger, Romero and Hamils versions of the Joker are all great but Letos I would not put along side them. Just reading your bio there. "Horror films, heavy metal, comic books, scary stories, old video games, the 80's, and Halloween" Wow. You sound exactly like myself!  |

And yeah, we do appear to have quite a bit in common. I actually used to see you on IMDb a lot before the message boards shut down, you frequented a lot of the same boards that I did. Glad to see someone else who's into all that stuff as much as I am! And I love the username by the way! |

Jai Courtney was the best thing about it. I regret paying money to watch this and for the bus fare, but at the same time it was a learning curve for me. Never rely solely on the trailers, except for Logan. What a movie!

Yep. they are what carried the movie overall as those two are easily the strong point of the characters in the movie and at the core of what makes the movie tick.
in fact, i like the movie more than most super hero movies simply because most super hero movies have no re-watch value where as i will be re-watching Suicide Squad. i have only seen it once so far but i imagine it will hold up for me on a re-watch.
i give it a 6/10 (a mild Thumbs Up).
Yeah, it's clearly no where near as bad as those types were claiming.
who knows, maybe they had too high of expectations(?) as usually anyone going into a movie expecting the world of it will likely be disappointed more often than not.

Honestly, the movie was pretty terrible. The villains were HORRIBLE in every way and the last 30 minutes were actually unintentionally hilarious. Will Smith and Margot Robbie carried the movie so I gave it a 5. It wasn't the worst movie or anything. However, I can never imagine anyone really giving it a 9/10 for any reason.

It's really poorly made, the story makes very little sense and the music cues were annoying. I think they had the potential to make a decent film but the end result was not that good.

There is no way anyone with any semblance of a brain can rate the movie a 9/10. It is so poorly written and made it is impossible. The Enchantress chick danced every time she delivered a line. The movie is just awful.

Loved the scene where the characters were in the bar. I really enjoyed several of the characters. I didn't care for the story overall.
