JOKER: FOLIE À DEUX

[jrockbridge]

My wife and I watched it knowing it got mostly bad reviews. We got through the entire thing. I, mostly, enjoyed the singing. I thought Phoenix and Gaga did the best they could with bad material.

I agree with these review snippets….

“A tedious legal drama bolstered by dull musical numbers that lacks the audacity of its predecessor.”~Rene Sanchez

“Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga give incredible performances as the Joker and Lee, but the overall story feels more like an Epilogue and not a standalone film.”~Lauren Veneziana

“The desire to break with the established order seems to me to be a bad joke made by awful people who hate the Joker.”~Yasser Medina

I enjoyed the first one but skipped this one at the theater. I might stream it next week while everyone but me is out of town.

I feel bad for Phoenix and Gaga. They did what they could. I wish the writers and director had found a way to make it less slow and dark.
