    I liked it, don't see why the reviews are skewed so negative, it has a few problems that seem to stem from trying to re-edit it to please everybody. I would rate it at a solid C+, not bad, not great just an average movie with better than average characters.

      Yikes, C+ would be an automatic pass for me...

      But we all have different tastes, so I'll still go see it this coming weekend.

        It was cool, I enjoyed it.
        Margot steals the show as Harley. Leto's Joker didn't annoy me at all. Will Smith did, however.
        It's a little disjointed here and there and would have benefited from a another session in the editing suite, but overall it's well worth seeing.

          Just got back,it was entertaining enough for us.
          Characters are good lots of action and backstory good little popcorn flick.
          Not going to win any awards but not bad.Letos joker wasn't that bad after all the only thing that really bothered me was his silver grill....lol
          He does not have a large part at all really,so if he's what's holding you back at all don't let him stop you.

              A mess but entertaining mess pretty much sums it up for me too. I didn't hate it.
              Possible spoilers:











              Joker was more of a supporting character for Harley than a plot mover and that was ok with me.

              I thought the team was sent in to stop Enchantress and her brother but all of a sudden the were rescuing Waller from the John Ostrander building. Was that mentioned or did I miss a plot point?

              And it looked to me that Batman's cape didn't have the scallops on it when he dove into the water.
              Better late than never.....

                SPOILERY ANSWERS!!!!

                It was glossed over in the dialog, but Flagg does mention their mission is to retrieve a very important person (they use some weird acronym he won't explain to Deadshot) and get the heck out.

                I'm still foggy why Waller killed all of those agents with her. The Squad all knew what she was doing, and now they have more dirt on her. Did I miss something there?

                And it looked to me that Batman's cape didn't have the scallops on it when he dove into the water.
                The CGI rendering computer probably wasn't done when they had to send the thumb drives out to theaters. Kind of like Doomsday.

                        Comic book movies that small children can't enjoy just suck in my opinion.

                          Die Antwoord is apparently displeased with the similarity between Joker/Harley and themselves, which is pretty funny since they are a mashup of 90s pop culture.

                              Oh man! I'd have no idea who they were if I didn't post on a music site from time to time.... that is truly amusing how they seem to be in synch there.

                              (Not a bad template as far as I'm concerned. I say that hesitantly, not really wanting to rehash the "Joker authenticity" debate much more than we already have!)

                                Huh. That seems pretty intentional.

                                I know them only from their roles in Blomkamp's Chappie.
