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.

Raanjhanaa - Review

First things first. This is a kickass debut by a Tamil hero into Bollywood where in he stole the show completely. Dhanush is like the breath of fresh air Bollywood love stories needed. But what also kills is his influence. Movie, without any need or context shifts into his comfort zone of Tamil tragedy cinema. Cinematography is the next best thing along with awesome soundtrack by Rahman. Banaras or Varanasi or Kashi never looked so vibrant and beautiful. Sonam Kapoor did fit the role perfectly. Abhay Deol was wasted in a mini role with no characterization. Movie goes off pretty well till Dhanush and Sonam reach Punjab to Abhay's house. What follows after that is a confused tale that constantly switches between political drama and love-sacrifice story and half baked at both. The ending is very unconvincing and one can say silly too. If I have to sum it up then I should say, watch it for Dhanush, Music and Cinematography but be prepared for a disappointing climax.
