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.

MLA(Telugu) - Review

Kalyan Ram has a habit of scoring hits with new comers when no one is looking but when all eyes are on him, he always faltered. Unfortunately, the same happens with MLA. It has the elements of a good commercial movie but inefficient handling ruins it for the audience.

On paper, a happy-go-lucky boy contesting for elections against a bad guy for his girl and in turn developing the village and especially kids in it is a very good line. But the execution matters and the director fails miserably in the initial phases. After an hour into the movie, the movie comes to it senses and from then on goes on a typical commercial route. But the bad taste from the initial reels stays with you even after you walk out of the theater. Also the climax of the movie does not help either.

Kalyan Ram looked fit and stylish in the movie but he needs to improve his acting in casual and emotional scenes. His mass scenes are good. Kajal just had to look Kajal and she does that alright in a role not written. Posani, Vennela Kishore, Brahmi, Prudhvi, Sreenu are the comedy gang and they evoke few laughs here and there. The main highlights of the movie are action episodes. Everything else is sub par.

So, this is not one of those times when Kalyan Ram delivers.
