I can only assume the bad reviewes are based on some expectation of what the movie is not.
I tend to go into movies and just judge them for what they are, rather than judge them based on some imagined expectation.
That said the acting is solid in this. The pace is decent. It starts off more slowly and then picks up the pace throughout. The plot mechanics are indeed not overly difficult to figure out but it didn't ruin the movie for me. For me it added an intensity to wishing the son would realize the larger picture before things get out of hand. Something he does very well. I think my only complaint would be the ending. Slightly untidy in that it leaves you to your own assumptions to some extent.
A very solid 7. I would watch this again as well as recommend it. Good action, realistic roles and reactions. What I would expect of a good quality movie.

I was pleasantly surprised at how good this movie is. The acting is top par and the action is almost non-stop. Zoey shines in this role as a female professional hit person, spurned on by revenge.
Great storyline as well. I missed this at the theater. Glad I found it.

I'm honestly a bit confused by all the Marvel vs. DC BS that seems to be trashing this movie. I'm not a particular fan of any particular comic. I don't own any comics. I just like good movies. I grew up with X-Men cartoons, and the Super Friends, Spiderman, Green Lantern. I could care less about some nerd rage about who's better. I just want some entertainment and Suicide Squad definitely delivered.
I wasn't sure what to expect, other than some cheeky behavior from Harley Quinn, and some nice visuals. What I got was a great summer ride.
Don't listen the hype and judge for yourself. Every one of these characters is fleshed out. I connected with each, although a few could have used a bit more back story. The visuals definitely didn't disappoint, and the action was non-stop once you got your ticket on the train ride. After the backstory was out of the way, it was game on.
The Joker was 'uncomfortable' to watch, which is saying something. The insanity shown there was truly believable. Harley Quinn excelled as a total wacko, jokester, bad ass, and general flirt. This was oddly probably one of the best renditions of the joker I've seen. Heath Ledger was a believable villain for being cold and critical and deadly in the batman flicks. This Joker is different for a different reason. I wasn't sure Jared was a good choice for this .I left the theater not doubting. The joker and Harley are insane and the in love. The joker is evil, and Harley will do whatever he asks. I great recipe for disaster ;).
Deadshot was awe inspiring, and still managed to be likable, and inhumanly human. Will Smith is the perfect mix of 'full of himself', 'a father', 'deadly', and 'plucky' at the same time. He and Harley Quinn had great chemistry on screen.
Enchantress was a surprise for me, largely hidden in the previews, and fantastic in it's delivery. They could spawn an entire new movie off of that alone.
El Diablo was fantastic as a thug turned spiritual initiate. His power is impressive. I only wish he had more on-screen time, because what they showed was jaw dropping. They should have spread that around a bit.
Overall, a solid 8 out of 10. You won't find much better for summer fare. This is one that will have lasting power beyond the summer as well. It will go into my favorites along with Guardians, The Man of Steel, Star Trek, and the Thor films. Great entertainment. Tell the critics to shove it or check their batteries...
