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.

The Dark Knight rises - Review

There were and will be so many moments when you expect nothing short of a classic from a movie of the director whom you admire to the core. But very few can reach those expectations. And rarely very very few exceed those, keep you jumping with joy throughout the movie, make you walk out of the theater with your head held high and thanking the director. Today was that day. Thank you Nolan.

No Bane was not as brilliant as Joker and he was not meant to be. But even with no character like Joker, Rises is definitely on par with its predecessor if not better. There are slew of characters unlike the previous ones like Cat Woman, XXXXX as accomplices and villains both in present and from past. Bane's character building was brilliant but in the end making him a red herring might not be a touch of the genius. That might be the only low of the movie.

Lots of reviews say the pace slackens in the movie. What I have observed in Nolan's movies is the pace graph slows down before the bang. It is as if it is intentional and I enjoyed it in all his movies.

Overall the movie is another masterpiece from the Master. Hats off to you time and again Mr. Nolan. You are genius. Period.
