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.

Jathi Ratnalu - Movie Review

 

Streaming: Amazon Prime

Basic principle of a movie is to deliver what it’s trailer promises. Jathi Ratnalu works because it more than delivers what it promised. 

The producers are the first to be appreciated for putting the money into such a venture with such a team of new comers. Also for giving the freedom to the director to create what he exactly believed in. Any attempts to finesse this raw senseless comedy may have resulted in different outcomes. 

Anudeep is the star of the movie. Based on his off-screen activities we can easily understand the humor in most of the scenes. The climax twist has his signature all over it. His writing is outright senseless but totally hilarious. 

After Agent Sai Srinivas Athreya, Naveen shines in yet another role he pulled off so good that you think no one could have done it better. The way he transforms his slang, his body language and exudes child like innocence are becoming his trademarks. Rahul Ramakrishna got a meatier role and he is hilarious. Faria’s role as by now viral “Chitti” is a treat both as the love interest and also in her hilarious episodes in second half. Priyadarshi somehow missed the mark with not so many jokes and punches around his character. Rest of the supporting cast is all good.

Movies cinematography, Music and songs understand and do justice to the tone of the movie. The beauty of the movie is that self awareness of the fact that they are making mad-cap entertainer and to stick to it throughout.

So, just watch this innocently senseless laugh riot.
