Really not that bad.

The hate for it, was mainly for the theatrical version. It was edited so much and so poorly that it ended up being a mess. This is the problems with DC's current movies. The stories are so long and need to be cut down for theatrical releases. And then get torn apart from the critics because those release are discombobulated messes.
Cara was utterly atrocious though.

It had nothing to do with the story being so long and needing to be cut down for theatrical releases. That's a gross simplification of the problem. The real problem was that Warner Bros. hired a trailer editing company to cut the film to make it feel more fun and quirky after BVS got absolutely lambasted by critics and significantly underperformed at the boxoffice. They got so terrified after the near universe complaints of BVS being such a "grimdark" slog to get through that the studio actively cut out any and all substance from Suicide Squad in favor of creating a film that was "more fun." Which of course resulted in a film that played like a series of extended music videos with zero character development or connective story/character tissue. Basically Warner Bros. sabotaged their own movie by trying to chase trends after the film was already shot.

It has a kickass soundtrack instead of actual dialogue, it involves the least suited mission for a crew of largely non meta criminals, and for teh uber dark "batman cood get raped in prison" Synderverse, it's painfully tame and conventional for a Suicide Squad movie. Glad you enjoyed it, but my God have they f-cked the dog (or however that saying goes) with the DC Universe. Sadly, it doesn't look like they'll be turning it around either.

I watched the the opening of it. It was so badly edited with musical choices that were so on the noise that it was laughable. Turned it off pretty quickly because that seemed like a pretty good indication of how much of a mess it was going to be, haven't tried watching it seen. Rarely does a movie so quickly alert you to how bad it might be as Suicide Squad does.

And once again you prove how much you have a terrible taste and try too hard to be a hipster, my dear friend.
Suicide Squad is an absolute garbage! Everything is so goddamn bad: characters, plot/story (LOL), editing, action, enemies and villains (LOL), music editing, pace, flashback
And of course, it has the WORST JOKER EVER!!! Holy crap! What the hell was that?!
Really not that bad.
I mean, it wasn't great or anything, but
it was a fun couple of hours
.
No idea what all the hate and drama is about.
ROFLCOPTER!!!!!
I always tell the truth, even when I lie. -

What drama? There's really no drama over it other than butthurt DC fanboys being unable to accept that most people thought the movie sucked. And at this point DC fanboys will defend anything no matter what because they seem to be desperate for their "universe" to be taken seriously. -

Odd. I read all the noise and whinging around release as DC fanboys mad that the film sucked and bitching about the extended universe not being basically I remake of Dark Knight.
They certainly seem to have read enough of the comics (that they constantly moaned about this being so unlike).
