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.

Nannaku Prematho - Review

Post 1-Nenokkadine, everyone wanted to see how Sukumar would make a movie with a complete mass hero NTR. And there are no surprises there because he sticks to his class taking. For NTR, this is a complete image makeover. Coming to the movie, in a world of 4 very intelligent people, 2 have a flashback, 2 fall in love, 2 collide head to head in a mind game, 1 loses and 1 dies. Sorry that was the hangover from the movie speaking. In aam junta terminology, the movie is a typical "son taking father's revenge" story but Sukumar adds a racy intelligent narration to it. It looks loosely inspired from Sherlock series. First half is very intelligent and racy. Second half switches gears between mind games, romance, brother's bonding and father sentiment. The switching isn't that smooth though. NTR is brilliant and different. He is on the right track except that he need to fire the Love Debba song choreographer and in a movie full of subtle acting he should have maintained the same in the climax too. Rakul looked pretty good. Jagapathi babu is brilliant. Rakul's scene in the jail and NTR's climax scene are major emotional highs in the movie.. Overall, it is a movie where Sukumar tried to dumb down to the level of the audience that rejected 1-nenokkadine but he is still somewhat intelligent for some sections. So he added some good emotion scenes. I don't want to be the one that says if it works for all or not. It worked for me but definitely not a movie for fans of NTR's mass image.This is new NTR.
