Suicide Squad 2 - Movie Review

Streaming: HBOMAX Suicide Squad 1 was one of the finest DC movies(Minus Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy) to come out from their camp. Do not go by the reviews. It was so well received that Harley Quinn had her own movie. Now cut to Suicide Squad 2 with the famous James Gunn from Marvel camp at the helm, it barely meets the expectations.  Marvel made it seem so easy to write a super hero movie in super entertaining fashion with movies like Winter Soldier, Thor Ragnorak, Guardians of the Galaxy etc. But DC thought all they needed was the guy who directed Guardians to sell Suicide Squad. Oh my oh my how they were wrong. In one phrase, Suicide Squad is a gross mess that shines few times and far in between. Suicide Squad is no Guardians, not even close. The screenplay is messy. The visuals are gross but it aint Kill Bill. Kill Bill romanticizes with violence but Suicide Squad tries to romanticize with gross elements. To say the least, it doesn't work in favor of the movie.

Yevadu review

Let me guess how Vamshi Padipally might have narrated this script idea to Chiru and Charan. "Babu, I have seen your last two movies, Racha and Naayak. I loved your idea of picking some 5 to 6 commercially successful films and stitching them into one more commercially successful movie. My story is taking that idea to the next level. We shall take 10 to 12 successful movies from all over the world, divide them into two groups then stitch films in each group together and make one group into first half movie and another group into second half movie."
Folks my guess might actually be true because that is how Yevadu is. First half and second half are like two distant cousins who just have one ignorable link. First half is revenge drama for love interest and second half is another revenge drama for social cause. To be more precise first half is like Subbu revenge story and second half is like Vikramarkudu revenge story. Coming to acting, everyone is very superficial. Post Racha and Naayak Charan realized he does not have to act any more but just dance. That he does just fine. Kajal is for 5 minutes and she was ok. Shruthi and Amy are just for eye candy and no proper roles. Brahmi and Vennela Kishore are namesake comedians. Villains are aplenty, one group for first half and one group for second half. Director failed miserably in adding emotion to the script even though he very strongly tried. This movie makes me think that Brindavanam can now be easily credited as NTR's success. Songs are good and BGM is just ok. Overall another overdose of in your face commerciality and if this movie is not a flop, then there will be a very bad influence on future Telugu movies and especially from Charan.
