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.

Songbird faced lot of backlash when the trailer released and people called it exploitative cinema. I am not taking sides but it is released now and I watched it unbiasedly. 

Songbird is a movie loosely based on Covid-19 outbreak and exaggerating it for genre. The movie as such is not up to the full potential of Hollywood virus outbreak genre movies. I think we need to cut some slack for this one because of the reason that it was shot entirely during quarantine period with minimal resources, actors and lots of restrictions.

If you watch it as an Indie movie it will work but not as a full fledged Michael Bay produced one.
