I'm a fan and even I think the movie is mediocre. It's not as horrible as I anticipated it judging by the overreactions but the film is still a slog to get through and it feels so...incomplete.

Worst movie of all time.

 

There's a reason why its the worst rated & 2nd week drop ever for a comic book movie. Lady GaGa did that :clap3:

No. It's just bad.

The singing could have been scrapped and there could have been a Harley character growth or backstory. 

It was just a pointless film with music sequences that added little to nothing to the actual story. Hated it.

It's a solid 6/10, with terrible structure and a weak script.

 

There are great ideas in there, and fantastic performances, but after it's all said and done Joker 2 was an unnecessary sequel.

 

People are just foaming at the mouth to have a chance at tugging Gaga's wig on here - the rest of the world does not care about J:FAD lol

i hated the movie but most people hopped on the hate bandwagon and haven't seen the movie at all (obvious considering the gross)

 

like i have so many people trying to argue with me on tiktok over stuff and then admitting they haven't seen it yet. like why do you care so much about a movie you haven't even seen :rip:

I also watched it recently and it's painfully bad. Joaquin was the only saving grace in that, no wonder he (allegedly) hated the final outcome.

It's not a hate train. It's people reporting about a bad movie that bombed.

No, it's serving incompetence. 

 

The reason why the film bombed and is heavily disliked is mostly due to its marketing targeting the wrong demographic, which also explains its Cinemascore being a D. The easiest comparison would be American Psycho with Christian Bale which is regarded as a great film but when it was released it flopped and... received a D Cinemscore as well. Why? Because it was branded the wrong way so when people bought a ticket they got something completely different than what they were anticipating. JFAD and American Psycho are literally perfect examples of bad marketing. WB should've marketed it as a musical instead of an r-rated thriller. It was the wrong approach and ended up burying the movie.

Agree. It's not great but the narrative that's taken over IG and tik tok that it's the "worst movie ever made" is actually really comical. It's like the gays really let the incels win - even if you don't like Gaga, chiming in on the unnecessary dogpiling really let the straight man create a false narrative all because they hate musicals and can't fathom unconventional, non-literal storytelling. Like…the movie is simply not that bad.  
 

I'll bet actual money that the movie will be rediscovered in a few years and appreciated down the line for what it is.

First movie was a heavy, psychological drama, so what do you expect from GP? They're not living for Gaga singing or any musical segments, this is what basically ruined the movie, accept it and move on... those constant excuses doing absolutely nothing :coffee2:
