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.

Krack - Movie Review



Streaming: AHA

There are three types of mass movies- one that is outright brilliant like Race Gurram, Master(Tamil) etc. Second is outright bad mass movies like Vinaya Vidheya Rama, Rabhasa etc. And the most dangerous ones are the ones that border on being bad but somehow work like this movie, Krack. Such kind would set a bad precedent and a string of some more bad mass movies bringing down the greatness of Mass movies.

Krack is a run of the mill mass movie with couple of good scenes and a very interesting narrative style but that's it. An idea that could have been transformed into a category one mass movie misses its mark by a mile. Elevation in a scene should be organic and then the heavy bgm and slomo shots should enhance it. You can not just rely on bgm and slomo for every elevation while your dialogues and scenes are strictly average. "Naaku meku, neeku mango" "Addanki lo addanga elaadadeestha" were somethings I did not expect from Sai Madhav Burra. Unfortunately the BGM and songs by Thaman also offer nothing new. The production values were super. Shruthi's styling is very good in the movie. Varalakshmi did good. Samuthirakani was wasted. The Vetapalem batch concept was good. 

The bus stand fight scene and Shruthi's fight scene are the only well executed segments in this over the top(OTT) mass movie that had all the necessary resources to make it good but could not.
