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.

Bangalore days - Review

From the title and the trailer I was mislead to think this is just another movie of three friends and their college life. May be the language barrier too. So when the movie started unfolding, it was a pleasant surprise. It is about three cousins at their most crucial juncture in life. Movie does not have any emotional highs or any dramatic confrontation scenes. Everything is very subtle just like life. For a change, the movie depicts a free spirited person as not so free spirited but constantly haunted by his past and his fears. All three leads suited the role very well. Nazriya is top notch among the three. Nivin and Dulquer are good too. Music, cinematography and locations complement the direction very well. Movie is a bit slow though. Bangalore days, in short, is a peek into the life of three cousins that deals with their friendship, their fears, their problems, their mistakes, some necessary closures, some assurances and a happy ending for all.
