It's not perfect, but it's a step in the right direction for DC

Rating: 8/10 (16 August 2016)

You can't give half rating on IMDb, but for all intense purposes I give this movie a 7.5/10. It's not perfect, the script is pretty standard for an "anti-hero" film (though the dialogue is spot on), the overall plot is fairly generic, and as far as the story telling goes, things are choppy.
The plot moves quickly, so if you step out for a second you're likely to miss something. But it is funny, and has great visuals. The effects used for the Enchantress are some of my favorites. The comedy snuck in is in good taste and well timed. It's not like Deadpool, where it's all about the laughs and watching the titular character shoot people (not dumping on Deadpool, I really enjoyed that movie). SS is more like a humorous version of the Avengers.
You've got the powerhouse (Diablo), the two conflicting leaders (Rick Flag and Deadshot), the femme fatale (Katana), the muscle (Killer Croc), the seemingly useless one (Boomerang), and then there's the wild card in Harley Quinn. The characters backstories are kind of thrown at you very bluntly, but overall the writers did a decent job on each. Would really be interested in seeing more from Boomerang and Katana in the future.
Acting is top notch, Will Smith leads a great cast and gives a solid performance as Deadshot. The real scene stealers are Jared Leto and Margot Robbie, whose chemistry as the Joker and H.Q are superb. I'm hoping they go through with the Harley spin off and include more of the Joker/Harley story (throw in Poison Ivy and I'm sold)
All in all, this is a good movie. Not perfect, not terrible, and not to be missed. Do yourself a favor and see this movie. It's not nearly as "bad" as all the critics say it is. It stays true enough to the comics, and the cameos from Batman and Flash are nice touches. Hopefully the cast and crew will learn from the mistakes they've made here and deliver a great sequel in two years.
