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.

DC Comics' latest addition to their burgeoning cinematic universe fails in several rather spectacular ways.

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.

3/4

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.

3/5

“Suicide Squad” is a case of two hemispheres of tone and purpose that become problematic in cohesion and comprehension.

Bad pacing, horribly chopped-up story structure, and dull forgettable action.

Esquadrão Suicida (2016) mantém seu valor pelo apelo visual marcante e pela entrega de um entretenimento descompromissado. Diferente da abordagem pastelão e brutal do filme de James Gunn, a versão de 2016 acertou em cheio no ritmo pop e na construção estético-cultural de seus personagens. O maior destaque é a Arlequina de Margot Robbie. Ela está maravilhosa em seu traje glam-punk icônico, que se consolidou como um fenômeno global. Tentar apagar essa estética sob o pretexto de um "purismo higienizado" foi um erro crasso da indústria. O filme de 2016 permanece como o auge de seu impacto visual e carisma, registrando o momento em que a vilã realmente dominou o cinema pop mundial.

Great casting but worst characters for some are good and others are terrible including Jared Leto's as the joker-ish and terrible editing and the song choices are tiredness and one of the worst line from Rick Flag towards katana ever.
