One of the greatest films in recent years and perhaps even of all time.

Three things that bothered me a lot.

1. The violence. I'm not squemish but most of the blood and gore in here, made me feel uncomfortable because of how meaningless it was. I'm not asking for a commentary on violence a la Peckinpah, but do something more than just show it. Even somebody like Tarantino, who gets criticized for it, knows when and how to use violence effectively, whether it's just a moment (the flowers covered in blood in Django) or an entire sequence (The Crazy 88 fight in Kill Bill). Not every random death needs to be an explotion of guts. One of the best scenes was Harley's escape which became memorable the instant it stopped with the blood.

The same goes for the language. I believe there's an art to cursing, but this never went beyond "Fuck this... fuck that". It was like a 10 year old wanting to be cool.

. But the movie is too lazy and weak (or you can just say mainstream) to treat this guys as the villains they're supposed to be.

Overall, it's just fine as long as you see it as nothing but disposable entertainment.

I imagine this is the "real" James Gunn.

I liked it, but then I adore Margot Robbie's Harley. Giant starfish was a bit surreal and I was on the verge of 'what the hell is this s**t.!' but then the killing started so it was okay again.. :)

Can't believe I wasted 2h of my life on this movie. How do you make a movie starring Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn and end up with something as boring as this?

Leave your brain at the door because this is too dumb

BUT very entertaining, lots of violent action but BEYOND stupid/silly. Much better than the first one......

The whole project starfish was one step too much for me though....

Ok dumb action movie

"I'll kill every man woman and child to get peace" - Peacemaker.

Great line and there were more.

The film is fun but the CGI was too much even if it was fairly 'effect'ive.
Brutal gore from the start and often 'what am I watching?!'.
Pace was ok, no qualms with acting. Decent action. Not much peril. Gutted a scene I have wanted to make was innovative here.
Average 5/10 but people will keep watching this, I wouldn't again. I had to rewind when they say 'three days earlier' as I missed it and was confused by the next scene

I totall agree to chunkylefunga.

In the old comics all of them were villains, psychos and bad people but in the movies they eventually have to act as heroes so the final result is boring.

Fun, violent, suprising and actionfilled! One of the best comicbook movies ever!
Harleyquinn and King Shark were the absolute highlights!

And people, stop comparing the two SS movies, they are way to different. This movie really holds its own.

So suicide squad are the bad guys but Hollywood won't allow a film to actually have characters that are bad guys, so they're basically heroes that just swear a lot. Which massively takes away from the premise of Suicide Squad.

Then we have a paper thin plot, with pointless action, with John Cena hamming up another movie with his MDF style of acting.

Having a couple of actors who actually know how to act is the only thing stopping this from being a 1 star movie.
