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.

Ek thi Daayan - Review

After Raaz 3, ETD(Ek Thi Daayan) is another movie loosely based on or inspired by Insidious. But frankly, Insidious in itself is not a classic but a very different concept. ETD starts off pretty well. It takes a very different path yet interesting one till interval. What follows afterwards is way below the expectation set before interval. At the end of the movie, you feel the concept is under-utilized even with props like the Daayan book or points like "Every building has its own hell". Emran Hashmi sleep walks through the role. Huma Qureshi does not look as charming as in Gangs of Wasseypur. Konkana Sen Sharma is the life of the movie. She completely looks a Daayan. Kalki is wasted in a half baked role. What is more disappointing is both Ekta Kapoor and Vishal Bharadwaj produced this movie. Movie will look at least okay if you just forget my last sentence.
