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.

You know it is real and so it adds more to the tension. I for once cannot accept that this is how it all happened at "Zero Dark Thirty". It is too much flawed. Wouldn't Usama prefer bombing the whole house instead of dying at the hands of Americans or was he considerate about the rest of family members? Anyways what is appreciable is the way the capturing and killing is very downplayed. Though Maya crying before the titles role down is too much cliched. Watch it if you are interested in history or drama. This is no action movie.
