Delightfully Chaotic

Suicide Squad's biggest (arguably only) flaw is the erratic pacing e.g. The villains get their master plan off the ground before the second act can really start. Of course, since this movie prides itself on being anti-establishment, that may in fact be intentional.

As for the positives, there's plenty. Jai Courtney and Margot Robbie are hilariously hammy. Will Smith brings back the charm that's been missing since "Men in Black". Killer Croc looks the way the Ninja Turtles should have looked. Jared Leto even manages to rbing something new to the Joker (no small feat in itself) by playing him as not just crazy, but genuinely not right in the head.

Whatever elements you may have felt "Batman v Superman" was lacking, "Suicide Squad" will tick all those boxes.
