Very well executed
If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
Despite a good premise, a secret US government project to release the country's imprisoned supervillains to fight an enemy and all the danger of such an initiative. But, there's not enough to care about given the messy production. The characters gleam, and they have different skill sets for oncoming enemies which is entertaining, but they have very little redeeming features. The tightness of the story set up at he beginning is offset by a clotted storyline that follows. Every superhero anti-hero film must have a convincing villain to create perspective, so eaily beaten walking blackberries and a Disney witch falls short. There's just not enough comedy to make it fun - that's the nub of it. However, the whole thing is saved somewhat by Margot Robbie's perky minx, Harley Quinn, who lit up the screen every time she appeared.
The plot does not have any sense from the begining to the end, you are not expecting absolutely notthing original and after 10 minutes when at least you think the fight scenes will be good you notice that even that is terribly done
I understand while people didn't really like it but personally I thought it was ok. The chemistry of the cast is pretty good, their backstory is short yet well developed and the jokes are pretty funny. Will Smith and Margot Robbie are lime the breakout stars of this movie. The biggest disappointment is the virtual absence of the Joker. This's a good example of misleading marketing: Many of the trailers depict The Joker as a major character in the movie yet he only makes a handful of appearances in the actual movie. I do agree that the story could've been more developed but all in all it's pretty decent.
Would have liked to have seen better character development, especially the bad guys. Joker was a horrible rendition. Not so much Leto's fault, just bad idea from writer. Tried too hard to modernize and use street level criminal characters to try and infuse complex character plots, which just didn't fit, and wasn't believable. Could have been so much more. But it just got lost in corny dialog.
