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.

Streaming: Netflix

After the super success of Stree movie, the one half of the makers try to come up with another one in same genre. But where they fail with Roohi is the conviction and honesty that was present in Stree. 

Roohi was supposed to work mainly because of chemistry between Varun and Janhvi. But it does not and it lacks the reason. Rajkumar tries to make the proceedings watchable with his earnest acting but he could only help so far. Janhvi proves her acting abilities again in a role that demands multiple layers of acting along with multiple layers of makeup. 

What works in favor of Roohi is the bold climax. Of course it does not make sense but the idea was pretty good in many ways. 

Overall, Roohi is just an excuse of a movie to milk the Stree craze.
