Suicide is more fun

Rating: 1/10 (9 October 2016)

Since it's faster to tell you what's good about this movie than what's bad, here we go: Margot Robbie is great! ...and the way she manages to give life to a character that suffers - like every character in this movie - from the god awful dialogues, the bad costumes, bad acting, the wannabe-try-hard-complete-fail-coolness, and the terrible plot. Of course this is far from saving the movie!
1. Dialogues:
Some of the worst c**p I've heard in a long while. uncool, meaningless, unfunny, far from gritty, farther from credible. example:
HARLEY QUIN, looking at Killer Croc, says: "He's ugly on the outside, too." KILLER CROC: "Not me shorty (long dramatic pause) - I'm beautiful."
HARLEY QUIN: "Yeah, you are."
KILLER CROC growls
Is that supposed to be funny, cool, meaningful, gritty, mysterious....or is it just c**p?!?! And the movie is full of this...
2. Bad Costumes:
Either boring, not befitting of a modern version of the villain or just plain hilarious like the enchantress.
3. Bad acting:
Will smith is will smith. Delevingne portraits the enchantress like a cheap B-movie witch, Kinnaman desperately trying to sell us the tough guy. everyone else (except Margot Robbie) fails or doesn't get the chance to be anything meaningful.
4. Bad actor choice:
Delevingne, Smith, Joel Kinnaman don't fit into their roles. Especially Delevingne looks like a teenager although she is supposed to be an archaeologist.
5. Action:
Wave of useless minions which don't pose a threat anyways - meaningless trash talk - wave of useless minions posing even less of a threat - meaningless trash talk - wave of minions - trash talk - uninspired, short and boring boss fight - more meaningless trash talk that no human with a brain could emotionally or intellectually relate to. If at least the action scenes would show something spectacular or creative or flabbergasting..but...nope. We get good old Steven Seagal B-movie fight scenes of the 90's.
6. Plot:
Irrelevant
7. Character Development:
No (unless u browse Wikipedia while watching)
8. The Joker:
One major reason for me to go see this flick was the Joker. Unfortunately he almost never shows up and when he does, his appearances are so short that Jared Leto can't really shape his personal take on the new Joker. That's why I want to be cautious in judging him and his performance. I can't say that I liked the new Joker as much as I did Jack Nicholson's or Heath Ledger's, but given the circumstances he did an OK job.
Conclusion:
Definitely among the worst movies of the past ten years considering the amount of money and actor-potential involved.
