Here's my review/reaction of the latest movies I've watched (in no particular order). For reviews only: I will also add here my review/reaction from the US TV shows that I watch. My grade would be from 1 to 5. 1. Suicide Squad  (2016 | Action | US) Review: It's still on the DCEU - dark (some too dimmed action scenes). It's is also, like BvS , poorly edited, fast-paced, and messy (thanks to a big number of characters). What saved this movie is that it's load of fun scenes. Margot Robbie & Will Smith were both great as Harley Quinn and Deadshot. Viola Davis is striking as Amanda Waller. Jared Leto's Joker is a creepy one. He's iteration of Joker is way far from Heath Ledger which is interesting. Perhaps a longer screen time in the future would be needed. The movie's villain is not that compelling. A better editing could have made this movie great. But overall, it's good. Grade: 3.5/5 2. Ghostbusters  (2016 | Comedy | US) Review: To be hon...

Suicide Squad For WB, It feels good to be bad. Suicide Squad  opened to a strong PHP 161 million. It's admittedly lower than this year's superhero pics Batman v Superman, Captain America 3, &  X-Men: Apocalypse, thanks to its R-13 rating here in the country, but the fact that it still managed to collect that amount is remarkable despite its rating and has also beaten Deadpool 's PHP 120-130 million opening. This huge opening is largely due to the interesting concept of the movie and a great marketing campaign executed by Warner Bros. Also, this marks the first appearance of Jared Leto's Joker  which attracted a lot of people. We can also add the movie debut of Harley Quinn  (portayed by Margot Robbie) and Deadshot  (portrayed by Hollywood Superstar, Will Smith). In the marketing department, the trailers are selling this movie as DC's Guardians of the Galaxy showing the fun interactions, slo-mo action scenes and catchy songs of the movie. Like BvS...

In Case You Missed: Here are the new trailers for the anticipated comic-book adaptation of Suicide Squad and the return of Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising. Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising Now that Mac and Kelly Radner have a second baby on the way, they are ready to make the final move into adulthood: the suburbs. But just as they thought they'd reclaimed the neighborhood and were safe to sell, they learn that the new occupants next door are a sorority even more out of control than Teddy and his brothers ever dreamed of being. Forced to turn to the one ex-neighbor with the skills to bring down the new Greeks, the Radners - alongside best friends Jimmy and Paula - bring in charismatic Teddy as their secret weapon. But if they think that their neighbors are going down without a fight, they have severely underestimated the power of youthful ingenuity and straight-up crazy. Suicide Squad Supervillains accept a secret government mission that will likely result in their deat...
