The Suicide Squad, as well as its violent action and colourful characters, has received positive reviews from critics.

“A film significantly more entertaining than its predecessor, preserving the cold draught of bleakness that blows through the greatest of the DC Universe but with the visual brilliance and romantic yearning that makes Gunn's work pop,” observed Leslie Felperin in her review for the Financial Times.

“Gunn gels it together with a wicked sense of humour and a clear affection for his characters who, while not as charming as his Guardians of the Galaxy, are a hoot to hang around with,” writes Dan Jolin in a Time Out review.

John Defore of The Hollywood Reporter said "Gunn's gloriously violent new film mostly ignores David Ayer's flop from 2016, but it's not a sequel. It not only captures the nastily enjoyable vibe that eluded its predecessor, but it also tells a compelling storey, all while balancing its most appealing character with others whose disposable nature (they aren't sent on suicide missions for nothing) doesn't stop them from being entertaining onscreen."
