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.

Cheliya review

When everybody involved in Cheliya heard the story first, they might have thought this is the perfect movie for Mani Ratnam to bring back to full form. And yes that is absolutely true about the movie. The director in Mani Ratnam in top form. His midas touch can still be seen in many scenes and most songs. But where this movie takes the beating is the writing. The scenes are lengthy and with not enough emotion backing them. The role of Karthi should have been a little bit more fierce like Dulquer in Kali. Instead here it takes almost complete movie to understand what his character is and so the contrast shown towards the end is not obvious. The songs are a major highlight for the movie. Hamsaro brings back the memories of yesteryear Mani Ratnam songs. Maimarupa comes in parts and both times is well shot. Morethukochindhi is visual treat of a song. Both Karthi and Aditi looked perfectly like a couple in Mani Ratnam movie.

If only it had a better written script, the director could have done wonders with this movie.
