Very disappointing

Rating: 6/10 (8 August 2016)

I'm not a comic book fan (graphic novel?! Yeah, right!) so know nothing about the original story or characters.
The trailer made the film look amazing! Great action, explosions, design etc. It turned out that the trailer contained all the best parts of the film and was enough for you to say you'd now seen 'Suicide Squad'.
By far the highlight of the film was Margot Robbie. She continues to show shy she is a first class Hollywood draw and one of the most beautiful women in the World. Her performance as 'Harley Quinn' contained scenes of humour, fear, anger etc etc etc and all were brilliant. Her backside got plenty of screen time, probably more through design than luck.
Well Smith played his usual role of Will Smith.
Cara Delevingne, who I'd never heard of and was surprised to hear is a model, was very wooden. I'm sure a far better casting choice could have been made.
A lot of the earlier scenes jumped around and made little sense. There were several lines of speech that were incoherent.
The film did not live up to the trailer, the storyline was thin and short-lived.
It wasn't a terrible film, but it's not great. In the long run it will be remembered as another edition to the long list of poor DC Comic films like the terrible 90's Batman films and all the awful Superman films. The future releases don't look good either. It was nowhere near as bad as Batman v Superman!
