Joker: Folie à Deux
Yikes. I left this movie so unsatisfied. The writing is lazy, there is so much filler, and there is zero narrative. There is too much time is spent in two boring settings - the prison and the courthouse. The whole time I was just waiting for something to happen. I didn’t expect so much music. And not just a lot of music, but really bad music. I understand they are both not supposed to be amazing singers on purpose but it was terrible to listen to for two hours. I love Lady Gaga as Lee Quinzel but even her singing sucked. I know. She is such a good singer so I was expecting her to, you know...sing! But she had this weird raspy talking singing thing instead for the whole film. Which is such a disappointing use of her amazing vocals. Her character could have been much more interesting, but I feel like they just added her for the sake of having a new character into this world. I like that they kept the same tone as the original film, but that's about it. I also liked the cartoon intro
