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.

Eddie the Eagle - Review

There have been so many sports based movies and most of them about the underdogs. Eddie the Eagle is also one such story. What sets it apart is, let me just bluntly say it, Hugh Jackman as coach. That being said, Hugh can make the proceedings bearable but this movie needed a very different type of taking to make it work. It is a story of a foolish underdog who wants to represent his country in Olympics in any kind of sport. After trying many, he picks Ski jump. What works in the movie's favor is the fact that this is a real story and what you are seeing on the screen is true. So it gives audience immense joy looking at this sweet story. The climax small speech by the champion jumper in the elevator is sure to touch you. Movie has it's cliches but it has its heart in place and somehow you feel nice and warm about this. It is a very sweet movie and then there is Hugh Jackman in his aviator shades.
