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.

Ammammagarillu - Review

Sometimes, some directors get their hands on a gold mine of a script but they do not realize that they are not efficient enough to make it into a movie. Ammammagarillu is once such script and one such movie.

The emotion behind the movie is so strong. There are some brilliant emotional episodes but the movie could have easily been a lot better one, I mean, better than Kalisundam Raa in the hands of a more experienced and efficient director. The dialogues in the movie are well written. The scenes too are good. But their treatment looks so rushed. In some scenes, you almost get into the mood to cry out  but then the scene ends abruptly. While in some scenes, the emotions do not get the right treatment and end up looking half baked.

When all else fails, there is Naga Shourya shouldering the movie with his inimitable charm and good acting. This one time, let me summarize this in my wife's words. Movie isn't that great but it surely touches you and reminds you of your Ammamma if you have or had one and makes you miss her. It is a good experience though if you can sit through some half baked scenes.
