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.

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes

Rise of the Planet of the Apes is a very good movie. But now after watching the Dawn of the Planet of the Apes I feel Rising was just okay when compared to this sequel. It is not an exaggeration to call Dawn as The Godfather for Apes. I am sorry for Godfather fans but I could not resist the comparison. I feel that is most apt way to describe this movie. The first thing I liked about the movie is the way it started. A script in my opinion is awesome if you have two groups warring against each other and audience is rooting for both. That is the best conflict makers can get in a movie and this movie gets that pretty well. The proceedings then immerse you totally into the world of Caesar who is no less than Don Corleone for Apes. The dialogue, the acting, the graphics and music all fall right in place for the script. A must watch if you liked the first one or even otherwise.
