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.

Hamari Adhuri Kahani - Review

Unfulfilled love is definitely painful but that alone cannot make for a good watch if you plan on making a good movie. It needs heart wrenching music, capable direction, decent plot and well supporting dialogues in it. HAK suffers from lack of capable direction and well supporting dialogues. There is plenty of pain in the plot made more painful by the title song and Humnawa song. But they only occupy 10% of the runtime and rest is a been there seen that kind of melodrama and too much crying. Vidya Balan is wasted. Emran Hashmi and Rajkumar Rao gave their top notch performances. It is these two people and some soulful background score that make this movie watchable. What Aashiqui2 did with its great music, subtle emotions, brilliant direction and good plot is what even this movie attempts. It falls short though yet still manages to tug at your heartstrings here and there. So in a way its a painful story told in a painful way(pun intended)
