What do you guys think of Suicide Squad?

Seems like a really lame, cheap, and surface level interpretation of our Mister J and Harley...I don't think Jared Leto is right for the part at alll and the way they wrote Harley as just a "crazy" blonde sex kitten is like...no. And giving The Joker a grill? What the hell??

Glad it worked for you! I loved their performances! There could not be a more perfect live-action Harley!

There was one scene that bothered me (I don't think Mistah J would offer Harley to another guy, or that Harley would be ok with it). Other than that, all their scenes were gold.

The makeout in the chemicals scene was one of the best (and certainly the hottest) Harley/Joker scene in any medium!

I love that fact that Joker was going to let her die and then has a change of heart like he's pissed off at himself for realizing he loves her and then goes to save her.

I love the fact that the tables have been turned in the Harley/Joker relationship and it works! Usually she's the one risking everything for him but this time he was doing everything to get her back. I welcome a new interpretation of their relationship. It makes Joker complex too that he can be so evil and still fall in love. He was shedding tears over her in one scene! I love it!

And Harley was so heartbroken when he died - I almost cried it was so sad and Margot did such a great job.

One little complaint regarding Harley's fantasy scene: it should have been played for laughs and shown how crazy her mind is like the Mad Love fantasy scene in the comic. Joker should not have looked like Jared Leto in that scene.

Mistah J got to be heroic and romantic. The grape soda/bear skin rug line!? Lmao. Love that nod to Harley drinking grape soda in Mad Love.

We probably all predicted how he would show up at the end as soon as the helicopter went down, but I loved it. <3

Is anyone else disappointed that they changed the graphic from the trailer, instead of a heart forming around Joker and Harley in the chemicals? I missed that comic book artist quality.

i agree with everything you said except for the whole giving her to another man thing? i don't think thats what he was doing. i think he was just trying to instigate something like a little game so he could kill the guy. and harley was in on it. like two lions or wolves circling around this rabbit and playing games with it before they killed it. thats the way i saw it anyway. but I AM concerned about Margot's comments involving harley and joker. =/ seems like she played harley really well on screen but for some reason doesn't understand her AT ALL. talking about how "oh she should get out of the relationship and its toxic and bad for her yada yada yada" the usual garbage faux feminist CRAP. i was SO disappointed in her...=/ if they make some PCed up Harley on screen because of her and other dumb people...i ain't watchin' it. thats NOT harley or her character. no one seems to get it...as always.
