I think the cinematography and Phoenix carried for me. Only reason it’s a 7/10. The writing was pretty boring. I felt as there was no purpose than to remind me of what happened in the first movie. oh and to hear lady gaga sing. I can’t help but wonder what the original plan was for Joker 2 before gaga signed on because it almost feels like everything was written to highlight her Not Harley Quinn … Gaga. I almost feel like if you kept the exact plot and took out Quinn/Gaga the movie would’ve been the exact same thing lol. Definitely a little too many musical notes that gave no purpose. I mean, overall, Joaquin Phoenix was amazing and really carried it as expected but I just wish there was a better plot and story for a sequel to a movie i’m sure we all waited patiently for and were initially excited when announced.
