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.

Drishyam 2 - (No Spoiler)Malayalam Movie Review


 Finally the much awaited sequel to a game changer thriller, Drisyam, that was remade and/or dubbed into multiple languages is here. Jeetu Joseph has a winner on his hand again.

Drisyam works mainly because of the grounded treatment. The story starts off where it ended last time and it pulls you into the world of Georgekutty effortlessly just like last time. But only this time you are looking forward to him to pullout his new trick out of his hat. You are constantly expecting that but Jeetu pulls it off right from underneath your feet. And that’s how Drisyam 2 wins. You can deceive an unsuspecting audience but deceiving the audience that think that they are well aware of the proceedings is plain brilliance in writing and direction. The climax could have ruined the movie but the screenplay format adopted saves it and the direction makes it work.

Without giving away any spoilers, let me just say that Jeetu Joseph pulls a Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Georgekutty becomes “The Sherlock” but with a treatment that’s so grounded like the lives of the people in the movie. And that’s the whole deception.
