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.

Kingsman 2: The Golden Circle

When I first saw Kingsman - Secret service trailer I was impressed. But I should admit that the movie was just okay. I somehow felt that the movie did not reach its true potential. So when The Golden Circle trailer came out, I knew I had to watch it but kept my expectations low. Now that I have watched it, I can say Golden Circle is how Kingsman franchise should be. They found the groove that was missing in the first one. I felt that, in a way, Kingsman is Austin Powers with non-vulgar humor. Julianne Moore was spot on as the villain, the exact kind Kingsman need. And what star cast it was. Colin Firth, Jeff Bridges, Halle Berry, Pedro Pascal(of GOT and Narcos), Channing Tatum and Elton John himself. The Action was outlandish and very enjoyable. The gadgets, the cars, the secret hideouts, the whole spy thing is totally awesome.

In short, Kingsman Golden Circle is a very enjoyable Spy movie paying homage to 90s spy movies with right and neat amounts of humor.
