The first reviews of 'Suicide Squad' are here, and people hate it

The first reviews for the upcoming "Suicide Squad" film (out this weekend) are in, and most critics say the movie doesn't live up to its ubiquitous hype, nor its sprawling premise.

The film, which David Ayer ("End of Watch") wrote and directed, features an all-star cast of DC Comics antiheroes - starring Will Smith as Deadshot, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, and Jared Leto as The Joker - but critics generally aren't pleased with the way the ensemble picture turned out.
