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.

Now you see me - Review

Firstly I am surprised at the reviews this movie got. Agreed this does not play it to the critics like The Prestige or The Illusionist. As one of the reviews said, this is indeed Ocean's Eleven of Magic themed movies. Look closely, because the closer you think you are, the less you will actually see. This is the theme of the movie and just like the protagonists fool everyone the same way, the director tries to fool you. The hints that are left here and there about the fifth horsemen are nothing but a distraction. So my suggestion would be "Don't come close coz then you don't see. Sit back, relax and now you (will) see." I loved the narration, the wide angle shots, the BGM, the dialogues, the actors and everything about the movie.  It is one of those edge of the seat thrillers. Don't miss it.
