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

Killing them softly

The end credits give it all. This movie is based on a book. A book with so much talk and very less story and even less action for a premise full of gamblers, mafia, heists, drugs, women, contracts, contract killers etc. Same is the case with movie. There is too much talk but there is no high point anywhere near the movie. Everything is very subdued except for the talk that covers whole lot of topics mostly killing, women, sex, killing, hookers, prisons, killing, drugs, cops, killing. But when coming to depicting killing only gets around 2 minutes footage while the rest none. so what happens for remaining 148 minutes? Talking...............................................

Watch it when you are extremely free and just woke up and especially only if the guilt that "this is a Brad Pitt movie" is killing you. Don't forget to finally watch "The Tree of life" now. I mean how much more tough could that movie be.
