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.

Dredd - Review

The first 30 minutes of the movie makes you believe it is a futuristic sci-fi movie. But what unfolds after that makes your heart pound with anticipation of the countless possible ways this movie would be more awesome than Raid-Redemption. Because the setup is the same but Dredd has more sophisticated weapon, accompanied by a mutant and the slo-mo shots are just awesome. But what happens in reality is an okay movie with nice action lethargically spaced out with awesome BGM in soft volume. You keep wondering if only Dredd did not have a gun and knew Kung Fu or Karate or Tae kwon do or at least fist fights. 200 floors of mafia controlled building , only 60 minutes of time, bigger budget, too much of blood and gore  and super cool weapons yet inferior to Raid. It's not a bad movie. It is decent but it could have been ****in' awesome and that is something I am not able to digest. Watch it if you have not seen Raid and you might love it and even if you have seen Raid, still watch it for its setup, action, slo-mo shots and awesome weapons. But be warned the blood and gore in this movie is not for faint hearts.
