Soundtrack was the best thing about this

Rating: 3/10 (3 September 2016)

This very much seemed like a whole movie worth of background filler setting up the back story for a real movie sometime later on. Like an endless trailer.
The very best thing about it was the soundtrack. Just imagine the sound of music on fast forward with better music but only props instead of actors and that would describe most of it.
There is a bizarre subplot involving the Joker which should have been left out as it just made the movie longer and it is already the longest trailer in history.
The character of Amanda Waller is so bad she makes the other characters look positively heroic. And yes I was surprised when she popped up at the end of the film showing us that the whole thing was just a trailer for another film.
The only reason I am giving this a 3 instead of a 2 is the soundtrack and Will Smith. That man can make pure corn dialogue sound meaningful and he is the only actor who surpassed the limitations of the writing.
For an example of this genre that raises the bar go see Deadpool. Somehow that film transforms its comic book universe into something that is entertaining. Suicide Squad does not.
