As a comic fan, this was ok. Jared Leto was bad IF he played a psychopathic joker that’s all about anarchy. As the golden age Joker, the crime boss, he did pretty well despite his running time being minimal. My true qualm with the film is that it’s not friendly to new comers to the DC universe and Harley Quinn’s acting in a few parts being insufferable. Less crazy and more like a middle school girl trying to be cool and edgy. Overall 6/10.

Personally the movie could’ve been better. Jared Leto did poor job as the Joker and just made it awkward. Will Smith as Deadshot was hilarious and Harley Quinn was right in character.

i think the main reason why suicide squad got a bad rate on rotten tomatoes because, they were comparing the movie to those of Marvels. Marvels movies are usually very well composed, DC is more action, but not as well composed.
