A fun summer flick with great characters

Rating: 7/10 (9 August 2016)

Suicide Squad may not have lived up to the hype, but that is almost impossible considering the amount of hype there was. Disregarding this, it proves to be a fun entertaining film with great memorable characters and a magnificent score, only weighed down by an average villain and some cheesy dialogue.
Most memorable is Will Smith as Deadshot, who does a terrific job in playing a character who is a 'bad guy', yet we can relate to him and his humour and timing is on point, so much so that I hope we see a spin off film with him.
Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn is also great and portrays the character well as does Jay Hernandez as El Diablo and Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flag. Almost all other characters are also well portrayed, with the exception of Katana, who whilst a great character, does not say much to actually give judgement.
As for Jared Leto as Joker, whilst in my opinion he plays the role well, differently from others who have portrayed the same character but still interesting, he does not feature in the film enough to come to a definitive judgement, but with more appearances, I am sure he will prove to be even better.
So overall I definitely recommend Suicide Squad.
