Musical Mishap

This feels more like a spin-off than a true sequel, spending most of its runtime rehashing the original through court scenes and interviews, rather than pushing the story forward. The writing is serviceable at best, often relying on thin threads to loosely tie one musical dream sequence to the next. Joaquin Phoenix's performance is fine, but it lacks the raw intensity that defined his portrayal in the original. Lady Gaga, on the other hand, seemed to intentionally tone down her usual flamboyance, likely to avoid overshadowing him, which, while understandable, feels like a missed opportunity for a more dynamic performance.The musical numbers, full of energy and spectacle, are easily the highlight of the film, with the singing and dancing offering moments of reprieve from the otherwise sluggish narrative. Unfortunately, these sequences can't sustain the film's momentum. The lack of a substantial plot causes the movie to feel overlong, dragging on for more than two hours, making it feel unnecessarily stretched. Without the gripping psychological tension of its predecessor, the film struggles to find its footing, leaving it more of an indulgent showcase for musical theatrics than a coherent, engaging continuation of the story.

The real point of this disappointing movie

Why Turn Joker 2 Into a Musical?

I'm so irritated. "Joker" was a gritty, intense psychological thriller that explored complex themes of mental illness and societal breakdown. It was a raw, dark film that didn't need gimmicks or unnecessary changes to make a statement. So WHY in the world would anyone think it's a good idea to turn "Joker 2" into a musical?This is a slap in the face to fans of the original. We didn't ask for dancing and singing - we wanted more of the same unsettling atmosphere, not a Broadway-style number in the middle of Gotham's madness. I signed up for a continuation of Arthur Fleck's descent into chaos, not a flashy musical break that completely destroys the tone.The first "Joker" was a masterpiece. This sequel choice feels like a desperate attempt to be "different" without respecting the core of what made the character and story so compelling. Ridiculous decision.
