What to Know

Critics Consensus

Suicide Squad boasts a talented cast and a little more humor than previous DCEU efforts, but they aren't enough to save the disappointing end result from a muddled plot, thinly written characters, and choppy directing.

Samantha Riedel Bitch Media DC Comics' latest addition to their burgeoning cinematic universe fails in several rather spectacular ways. Feb 11, 2021 Full Review K. Austin Collins The Ringer For all its cast and crew's inglorious chest-thumping, Suicide Squad is a failed, forced exercise in - of all things! you had one job! - ensemble chemistry. Aug 10, 2017 Full Review Matthew Rozsa Salon.com Based on the screening I attended, I can attest that audiences seemed to genuinely enjoy the jokes and get swept up in the action sequences. Rated: 3/4 Aug 3, 2017 Full Review Zach Pope Zach Pope Reviews A tonal mess with good characters.. Aug 7, 2023 Full Review Cory Woodroof For the Win (USA Today) The film’s reputation is worse than its actual quality, but it’s still not good enough to hold a candle to what James Gunn did with the characters in 2021. Jun 16, 2023 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies Bad pacing, horribly chopped-up story structure, and dull forgettable action. Rated: 1.5/5 Aug 25, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Big Red Cool to see the characters on the big screen Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/21/23 Full Review Heel365 the main part was this is what Ghostbusters should've been Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/17/21 Full Review Irene P I genuinely could not get through the movie. And I tried again, for some odd reason. This film is not a film, it feels like I'm watching movie trailers and scenes from different movies in one production that they decided to call a "movie". Going back to why I tried to watch it again - I think I was so confused by what I was watching that I thought, "maybe I'm feeling off today", so I tried watching it again. Nope, I'm not "off" this movie is what I imagine it feels like to be tripping horribly on a hallucination drug. Honestly, it's awful all throughout. Suicide Squad 2 is surprisingly MUCH MUCH better. There's character development, a plot line. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/12/24 Full Review Cerdos C Disappointing, they could have done a better job. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/11/24 Full Review David W Phobe. These characters suck. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 07/09/24 Full Review Audience Member It was alright. The first time I watched it, I loved it. But watching it again made me realize that it was kinda bad... Other than that, I absolutely loved Harley in it! She was my favorite part of the entire movie, and I loved seeing a bubbly, live action Harley Quinn. If you're a fan of DC, I recommend watching it, but don't expect it to be perfect!
