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.

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.

118 - Movie Review

Kalyan Ram chooses good subjects on and off. Fortunately 118 is a good subject but the team behind is below par.

118 needed an able director backed by a cinematographer with a good eye and a team of actors that support that vision. Movie fails in all those departments. But it is not all lost. The story kind of stands tall and makes this movie a one time watchable fare.

All the actors including Kalyan Ram are just okay. Nivetha who is a very talented actress is limited in a role not challenging enough for her talent. If there is one place the script falters, it is the routine flashback that comes towards the very end.

Overall, 118 is a one time watch for thriller genre lovers.
