Entertaining but misses out on the last stretch.

Rating: 4/10 (9 August 2016)

It's OK, the first part is really good but after that it loses the plot a bit.
Harley Quinn is pretty good, but sometimes her lines fall flat. Her comedic timing is iffy and sometimes seems a bit forced. It's hard to tell if the Joker is good or not as his scenes are a bit random and very short, sometimes I think perhaps removing him until the end and letting him be a teaser would've been a better idea as he's not part of the story at all. Deadshot is basically Will Smith so it depends if you like him or not! The Enchantress was good I was pleasantly surprised. SPOILER Diablo was built up and then killed off really fast for no reasonable reason, there was a really good twist they could've taken and they didn't.
Overall characters were underdeveloped, I felt that neither Harley nor the Joker had the complexity that comic and media representations of them have had before, and the writing definitely doesn't complement Margot Robbie at times but makes her seem awkward. Nothing's really said about Killer Croc or Boomerang, and the Enchantress' story line is also a little vague.
It tries to put too much into too short a time and misses some really key routes to really push the characters into our hearts and develop them. There are some really funny moments provided by Boomerang. I don't think the PG-13 rating helps this. I would say go see it at some point, it's entertaining, but it's not really well- thought through towards the end. I don't feel that these guys are really that evil, ironically Amanda Waller does the most evil in this whole movie and comes across more unpleasant than the majority of the 'bad guys' in the Suicide Squad ...
