    spoiler free review: The Suicide Squad was heartfelt and yet irreverent. It was gruesome and yet humorous. It was beautiful to look at and yet overloaded with unexpected body horror. At the end of the day, it is an extremely well-made little movie and just might be the best all-around DCEU film yet. It's also the most James Gunn movie James Gunn has ever made. He threw everything at this movie. There were moments that reminded me of Quinten Tarantino for crying out loud.

    Great work.

    Definitely the best DC film in quite a long time. I really enjoyed it. Amazing happens when you get out of the way and let a good director work and not worry about setting up some stupid universe.

    Him casually murdering the sleeping guy was hilarious

    it was fantastic. I laughed all the way through and being rated r was what we needed. Gunn doesn’t miss

    That's easily the best thing the DCCU has done since it's the Nolan movies and it's not even close. I'd expect nothing less from James Gunn. Guy just knows how to make an entertaining movie. Also fucking hilarious. WB finally got it right, but have a strong feeling this was all Gunn and they had nothing to do with this.

    No it was not. It was terrible. Ratcstcher was solid even though the concept of the character is dumb. I sure hope most of these characters were invented as jokes in the DC Universe, not sure how anyone could take someone like Polka Dot Man seriously.

    Do you not understand what the Suicide Squad is? Take a few interesting villains and remold them into quasi-heroes while taking already established and dumb villains and using them as cannon fodder

    Fantastic Movie. Dumb, fun, and super easy to watch and follow. It was exactly what DC needed to do, and just leave the director alone. After that, I'm now more intrigued to see what David Ayer's version would have been like as a dark over the top style rated R movie.

    poke-a-dot man and his fucking mom was by far the funniest thing in the movie. I was in tears when the whole team was his fucking mom. then star-o at the end. Absolutely fucking amazing.

    All of the characters are real villains. Gunn unlike WB respects the source material. I mean

    Starro is a fucking A tier villain, literally the first big bad the JL ever faced and Gunn probably used him because the WB would never have the balls to use him in any capacity in their universe even as like an opening fight. They lack any kind of creativity

    I think the only actor I thought wouldn't die is Margot's Harley. Everyone else was up for grabs and I loved he killed off Flagg and Jai's Captain Boomerang.

    "Jai, would you like to come shoot a week or two and get killed off?" Easy paycheck

    Too many ITT still have the Snyder stick up their asses.

    TSS was irreverent, ridiculous, unpredictable and the most fun I’ve had watching a DC movie like ever. It was refreshing to literally have no idea what was going to happen in a superhero movie.

    Loved how the tone was set right off the bat and from then on you had no idea what to expect.

    I really hope DC learns from this. Get talented directors and let them do their thing.

    Finding out this Starro is different from the comics and did everything in self defense and anger because it just wanted to go back to the stars was kinda sad though

    im not sure who had a better payday. Kai Courtney or Nathan Fillion, who probably got paid really well for name recognition just do die quickly as possibly the worst and funniest character ever in a movie. I had to Google to see which character he was.
