You must have low standards. Suicide Squad was bad.

I had high expectations, went to see it, and ended up being disappointed. I think I gave it 6/10, but even that may be too high xD

Here's my reasoning:

It's okay, but not nearly crazy and fun enough. They had both the Joker and Harley Quinn and they hardly did any crazy schemes. I mean in the animated series the Joker escaped prison by riding a rocket disguised as a christmas tree. Even if you didn't have the budget for that, you could still come up with something cheaper and just as crazy.

The plot was okay, but the final confrontation felt like the writers were trying to set the bar lower with each turn of the plot.

The characters weren't that good and for some reason barely felt like villains. The main thing indicating that, was that they were in jail. Deadshot and the fire guy were the typical anti-heroes. Harley Quinn was written too much like an attention seeker to be as charming as her other counterparts. The Joker was underwhelming and his baby face made him feel off. The character was style over substance. The things Leto did off screen, when they weren't recording were more Jokerlike than what was in the movie. Enchantress was a bland antagonist. Killer Croc was said to be treated like an animal and therefore acted like one, but you could hardly tell; he wasn't misanthropic at all.

I haven't watched the movie (and I don't think I will) but I think many people were disappointed with Leto's performance because of how hyped it was. The dude was doing all that disgusting and edgy stuff to his co-stars, supposedly in order to 'get into character' but it was frankly ridiculous. So people thought that in order to use this methodical acting he must have pulled some difficult, oscar-worthy performance, and then they were let down because it was an average one.

Yeah, but the problem isn't his performance, it's the writing (and partly that he doesn't look the part). For all I know Leto is a good actor, better than he is as a musician. Thing is Joker was always a show stealer in almost anything I've seen him in. Leto's Joker was quirky, but otherwise kinda boring. He isn't fun and elaborate in his madness like Nicholson's or many of the animated versions and he doesn't represent a subversive nihilistic and anarchist ideology like Ledger did. He's just there.

People seemed so excited for it, which is why I went to watch. I guess my expectations must have been too high, because I didn't love it. Didn't hate it either, but it was underwhelming I guess. The soundtrack is the best part I think lol.
