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.

Captain America - Civil War

Captain America - Civil War is a movie where there are multiple superheroes but they are not on the same side. That reminds me of another recent movie, Dawn of Justice. I could not help but draw parallels between the two and guess what Dawn of Justice, the most ill-spoken superhero movie ever seemed better. Only difference, Civil War is entertaining if you forget logic, whereas Dawn of Justice is pretty heavy on logic and emotion. Civil War was made to entertain in the most escapist way possible. And it does entertain but the plot is very weak to justify the grandeur. Civil War packs in multiple action scenes and so many superheroes that remind us more of X-Men than Avengers. Overall, it is a good watch to see so many superheroes together on single ticket and in good action sequences. But while you are it, do not try to make sense of the whole setup. That might take the fun away.
