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.

Arctic - Movie Review

Streaming: Amazon Prime

Arctic movie is about one man's struggle to survive and find his way back to home after being stranded in middle of nowhere in Arctic. That there is the whole movie.

But what makes this a brilliant watching experience is one, the brilliant acting and two the subtle lessons of humanity it conveys. The movie is a good example of how and why to stay righteous even in your hardest times and especially in your hardest times.

Mads Mikkelsen is a delight to watch in the role that needed so much physical struggle and lot of mental strength to convey what he managed to convey. The very liberally used term "shouldering the entire movie" is very apt for him for this movie.

The movie uses some very simple things and moments to convey hope, righteousness, humanity and many other essential things to stay human. Watch it for its pure heart and being a good thriller is just an added bonus.
