While it is not the worst movie ever, I cannot think of one redeeming quality.

Harley Quinn is overrated in this film as well.

I literally couldn't make it through the movie. It was so bad I gave up after about 57 minutes and I don't care to even see the rest. Only movie I can recall not at least finishing watching. It was that bad.

I enjoyed Will Smith, he was one of the few good things in the film. Everyone else sucked, especially Enchantress. Arguably, one of the worst villains in recent memory.

I watched it Friday and thought it was incredibly cheesy and contrived. I wish it had a more serious tone similiar to its initial trailer. Leto can act but he ruined the joker.

I didn't see it because of this board, but I kind of want to now, just to see how bad it is.

Just finished it. I actually liked the "squad" outside of the joker who had an irrelevant role in the movie but the plot and bad guys were stupid as frick. Will Smith wasn't bad and holy smokes Margot Robbie is unreal sexy.

enchantress and her brother were two of the worst villains I think I've ever seen in a comic book movie

ETA: definitely far worse than BvS IMO.

ETA 2: Viola Davis the black woman plays the same exact role/character in every movie and it drives me insane

The brother villain did look kinda cool though.

Cooler than Mr Freeze.

10 years ago, it would have been good. But the bars been raised with regards to Superhero movies. You can't get away with "cheesy" and illogical anymore. Audiences expect a little more.




Unless you're a Marvel film.

Well, being fun with plots that make some sense make up for cheesy and unbelievable sometimes.

Oh I agree completely, but I do think this was a fun film.

I have enjoyed every Marvel movie outside of IM3. But I also like SS and don't get the hate. Was it an oscar winner? frick no. But it sure as hell isn't the worst movie of the year like some make it out to be. It's a summer popcorn film. It made as much sense and was as fun as Age of Ultron at least.

I still haven't seen this or BvS. I'll have to rent both of them soon to see how bad they really are.

Half way through it turned into ghostbusters

Viola Davis shooting all of her staff in the head was beyond stupid, it was insulting to the viewer

The movie isn't just cheesy, it is all style and no substance

BvS is on HBO now, and I watched it for the first time a couple of weeks ago. There were quite a few people here that said it wasn't that bad.

They were full of shite.

I thought it was bad. Way worse than BvS but only slightly better than fantastic 4 rise of the silver surfer.
