Funny, surprising, exciting. It gets everything right that the first Suicide Squad movie got wrong - I loved and hated all the characters I was supposed to, the villain is cool, the music is deployed with finesse (to the point where it feels like a conscious jab at the first film), the action is mostly really well choreographed and shot, the character arcs and tragic backstories work and don't feel forced.
It drags occasionally, and definitely should have been 20 minutes shorter, but it's great fun and a huge breath of fresh air after most of the DCEU and, honestly, most of the MCU as well.
Rating: Really good.
