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.

Anamika - Review

Remaking a suspense thriller is never a good idea. So Anamika was never a good idea to start with. But Sekhar tried his best to make Anamika stand out as his own than just a scene to scene remake. He succeeds to an extent. Just like Kahaani, the movie brings you into the world of pain of the main lead. Except for the assassin thread everything else is new in this. But it is not on par with Kahaani. Few scenes just before interval come across as very cliched. Everyone who have seen Kahaani know there is a twist at the end but Anamika has a different twist. Again not on par with Kahaani. May be it would have shocked me if I had not seen original. But what disappointed me were the follow up scenes. The closure of the movie is very half baked and with some loop holes. For obvious reasons, I cannot get into the details and spoil it for you. Anamika is not a classic like Kahaani or Godavari but a decent remake with few flaws.
