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. Idris Elba is...

Vicky Donor review


Two nobodies and Annu kapoor, sometimes that is good enough recipe to make a beautiful movie, provided you have all the other technical ingredients taken care of properly. Add to it a little heart and you have a winner.

Vicky Donor mainly deals with sperm donation and I know many frown upon that phrase even today. Let me disappoint those by saying, that act is depicted as a noble act in this one. Also this movie is not judgmental about anything.

Story of the movie can be called as the only thing that feels a bit inferior when compared to rest of the stuff.  It is a regular "awara" innocent boy meets responsible emotional girl story, where the boy is misunderstood somewhere down the line and then how it all ends happily. The difference is the direction of each scene and the screenplay, as in how everything unfolds and how so many lives, along with the viewers', are touched by it. Music just syncs with the theme especially the "Pani da rang" song.

Both Ayushman and Yami are cute together. Both are good packages of talent. Annu Kapoor makes you realize how much under-utilized he is in Bollywood. He gives another brilliant full length performance after a short one in Saat khoon maaf. The saas and bahu thread is the next good thing about this movie. They both did full justice to their roles.

A very good movie with a very good intent. Two taboos in Indian society, Adoption and Sperm donation are very well depicted in this movie. Sperm donation is not wrong especially when it brings happiness into someone's life. Thats the theme of the movie. The emotional quotient of the climax is on par with Taare Zameen Par, the one that brings the smile and tears together at the same time. I LIKED IT. John Abraham as producer bet right on this script and now he is on his way to the bank to cash it.
