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.

Good Newwz - Review

On Amazon Prime

Let me just confess that I was not ready for what I was getting into when I started watching Good Newwz. Thanks to Akshay Kumar's earlier comedy attempts my bar was very low. Good Newwz should be called the best comedy of Akshay Kumar till date may be right next to Hera Pheri.

For the subject at hand the jokes between Akshay and Kareena never cross the line of vulgarity unlike some movies dealing with similar subjects. The movie shows some decency. That is a first winner. And the duo of Kareena and Akshay are best with their jokes, punches, counter punches to each other. And when it comes to emotional scenes Kareena is a stunner and she proves that yet again. She has become so effortless too. Diljit and Kiara are so adorable in their roles. The chemistry between Kareena and Kiara in one scene hits the ball right out of the park. The emotion was so genuine there.

And when the emotional scenes start, boy, oh boy, I was not ready and did not sign up for this and nobody even warned me. It was a cry fest. I have not cried so much in a long long time. That whole 15 minutes episode I was crying and choking so heard I had to find space in between to breathe. I was not ready for that.

Overall, Good Newwz is a very good watch with subtle dig at "Khoon toh khoon hota hai" kind of mindset of ours.
