I saw Suicide Squad. First of all, it's not nearly as bad as the critics' reviews say. If you just want a fun, action-filled comic book based flick, it fills that niche. Margot Robbie is really good as Harley Quinn, and she gets a lot of screen time. Also, I was impressed that she gets as much action time (maybe even a little more) as any of the boys. She is evil, trampy, and brutal in a very fun way. Will Smith was great as, well, himself, as usual. I wish we'd gotten more screen time with Jared Leto as the Joker - his costuming alone was really unusually and interestingly realized - and he and Harley Quinn visually made a great pair.
I was disappointed with the soundtrack. From all the hype on my local radio station, and videos on YouTube, I thought we were getting a great new soundtrack. Unfortunately, there was a lot of recycled '60s and '70s rock, like Ozzy Ozbourne and Queen. That was probably the most disappointing thing about the whole film for me.
Anyway, I'd recommend it, if you're into comic book films - especially if you're a fan of the DC universe.
