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.

Kingsman - The Secret Service

Kingsman is not a spy thriller. So keep your expectations right. It is a tribute to all those spy thrillers and with a pinch of tongue in cheek humor. If you watch this movie with these expectations you will like it. It is not a classic but a good popcorn flick. That's it and nothing more. Any intelligence it tries to show in some confrontation scenes between Samuel Jackson and Colin Firth, it would immediately remind you of the brilliance from M Night Shyamalan's best movie Unbreakable and Samuel playing similar role. Action scenes are brilliant. Gadgets are cool and under utilized. Colin Firth's straight faced humor works very well and the youngster could not control the smirk he had on his face all the time but his characterization covers it up. Overall a good action movie that is light on your senses.
