Suicide Squad (2016) Movie Review By Rollingstone
You’ve never seen a more lovable team of death-row supervillains, hilariously dubbed “the worst of the worst.” Viola Davis is actually scarier than any of these maniacs as Amanda Waller, the ethics-starved fed who corrals these killer “meta-humans” from Louisiana’s Belle Reve prison to work for the good guys just in case of another alien invasion.

Suicide Squad (2016) Movie Review By IGN
Suicide Squad is a decidedly different flavor than Batman v Superman. It goes for subversive, funny and stylish, and it succeeds wildly during the first act. But then the movie turns into something predictable and unexciting. It plods on, checking off boxes on a list of cliched moments and meaningless plot points, making you wonder where all the razzle-dazzle went.
The movie feels thin, and with such little meat on the bone, it almost makes you appreciate how overstuffed Batman v Superman was (despite that being its downfall). Amanda Waller and Deadshot nail their roles, and Harley Quinn makes a fine cinematic debut, but there’s not much to be said about the rest of the ensemble cast — and as disappointing as it is to say, that includes the Joker. Suicide Squad is more like writer-director David Ayer’s flat-footed Fury than his razor-sharp Training Day (which he wrote), making for another unsatisfying entry in the DCEU.

Suicide Squad (2016) Movie Review By ComingSoon
Suicide Squad is a better film than Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. This seems like damning with faint praise, but it’s really not. Suicide Squad doesn’t have the scope of BvS, but it makes up for it with characters that are fun, tough, and even at times poignant. Marvel Studios is playing a longer game than DC Studios, so DC isn’t wasting much time throwing us into their cinematic universe, but I consider it to be the studio’s faith in the audience to keep up with all the plot and these heroes and villains.

Suicide Squad (2016) Movie Review By The Guardian
Suicide Squad promises madness, and a dense downpour of madness is what it delivers. I could have done with more fun and more lightness of touch.

Suicide Squad (2016) Movie Review By The Sydney Morning Herald
Despite the supposed darkness of Warner’s DC superhero films compared to the Marvel competition, Robbie’s clownish Harley would fit right into one of the campy Batman sequels from the 1990s. Still, without her there wouldn’t be much in Suicide Squad to enjoy.

Suicide Squad (2016) Movie Review By Vanity Fair
Suicide Squad is bad. Not redeemable bad. Not the kind of bad that is the unfortunate result of artists honorably striving for something ambitious and falling short. Suicide Squad is just bad. It’s ugly and boring, a toxic combination that means the film’s highly fetishized violence doesn’t even have the exciting tingle of the wicked or the taboo. (Oh, how the movie wants to be both of those things.) It’s simply a dull chore steeped in flaccid machismo, a shapeless, poorly edited trudge that adds some mildly appalling sexism and even a soupçon of racism to its abundant, hideously timed gun worship. But, perhaps worst of all, Suicide Squad is ultimately too shoddy and forgettable to even register as revolting. At least revolting would have been something.
