I was hesitant to even watch Suicide Squad, but two of my friends wanted to go see it. Given I was sort of curious of how it turned out because everyone was giving mixed emotions about it after they had seen it, I figured why not?

I should have trusted my gut instinct. I never really wanted to go see it because after I seen Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight, I had already fell in love with Heath Ledger as his Joker. It was then that I swore to myself that never again will I go watch another movie with another person portraying the Joker.

What I don't get is, how months and months before the release of Suicide Squad, the press and everyone were saying how Jared Leto is going to be the most amazing joker out of them all. But my one main question is, WHAT WAS THE POINT OF THE JOKER?! Because he literally got not even a half hour of screen time. I understand he was needed at the beginning of the movie to explain how he turned Harley into what she is, but was there a point to the rest? All he did in the rest of the movie was try to break her free and every time he failed (minus the last time because the movie had ended).

Other than the flaw of the Joker being in the movie, I thought that Suicide Squad had a decent plot. It was sort of cliché of how a man, (Colonel Rick Flag) wanted to save a woman, (June Moone) from evil (the Enchantress). And there were some funny moments as well. For instance, Killer Croc's statement to the gang "I like her," meaning Amanda Waller and her way commandment. Or of course the many hilarious and witty remarks of Harley Quinn.

Personally, one thing I really enjoyed while watching Suicide Squad was the scene Deadshot tried so hard to get Amanda Waller to allow him to reunite with his daughter. That's all he wanted out of it and after he finished their mission that he was assigned, he got his wish. I also enjoyed when even after Deadshot found Rick Flag's secret mission binder and went to him to confront him about it, at first, he wanted nothing to do with it. But when he found out the real reason, he jumped right back in and finished what he started.

In conclusion, not all movies can be a straight 5. In my opinion this movie was a flop. I would give Suicide Squad a 2.5 out of a 5.
