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.

Oculus review

I love the way Hollywood experiments with genres. Oculus is one of such times where the experiment is spot on. From the posters it is quite obvious that it is a super natural horror movie. I can say it is horror for sure but supernatural, I am not sure. I cannot confirm neither deny that. It is a very abstract horror movie with may be a supernatural element in it or a psychological element in it. You can take it either ways. The movie does not resort to cheap thrills and focuses on the point at hand through out. The abstractness of the script is very well maintained by the parallel narration of both the timelines. I rate this movie as one of the best horror movies I have seen but not because of the scares in it but because of the strong script and the flawless conviction with which this was executed. Must watch for movie lovers, not just horror movie lovers.
