I gotta say as an Albanian I wasn't offended by the bad guys being Albanian gangsters. It's actually very accurate lol. People resort to gang activity in Albania and outside as well because there's no opportunities for most people lol. And yes, a lot of the really bad Albanian gangsters come from Tropoja Albania. Main reason why Albania is poor is because of a communist dictatorship that lasted for nearly fifty years and 10 years of anarchy that followed thereafter.

This movie really changed Neeson's reputation. Before this he was never much of a tough guy. That's not to say he never got fight scenes - Rob Roy, Phantom Menace, Batman Begins. But none of those are particularly gritty. Since then we get The Grey, Memory, and even his comedic appearance in Ted 2.

So many wonderfully nonsensical scenes. But here's one that's sticking with me. I think it's when Cesar goes to buy flowers. The same trip where he passes the dying statues. (Which makes metaphorical sense for the first one, which is Lady Justice, but less sense for the others.) They start shooting on a real street. Then it cuts to what is clearly a studio backlot. (For the police brutality.) And then the car stops and it's obviously green screen. Was that on purpose or did Coppola think we couldn't tell? I couldn't make sense of it either way.

Yeah, Hamlet. Completely unexplained and not reacted to. And it's not even clear if Shakespeare exists in this universe, so we don't know if Cesar was quoting Hamlet for 3 minutes or if this was meant to pass as original dialogue. ... As they stand on scaffolding above a model of the city, shouting speeches to a crowd but pausing to let others interrupt them. It's a bonkers scene and only 5 minutes in.

I thought the first one was very overrated while I found this to be underrated. The performances are all great, it looks amazing even better than the first one and I thought most of the songs worked. It does get a little boring in the middle right around the trial part though. If you think of this movie more of a story about Arthur Fleck than the Joker I think you'll like it more. 7/10.
@AidenandAntoniowatchmoviesАй бұрын
I understand what your saying and I also understand what the movie is saying “no one cares about Arthur they just care about the joker” and it’s like YES that’s exactly right that’s why the first made over a billion dollars. And I found it in poor taste that Todd went ahead and added the guy cutting the smile after Christopher Nolan axed that happening in the first film.
@Grogeous_MaximusАй бұрын
I barely got through the first movie. Almost everything Joker had to say - and more - was said in Parasite, which came out the same year. That being said, at least the first Joker seemed to have things to get off its chest. The new one doesn't seem to have any actual message, other than postmodern 4th wall breaking, that complains that people liked the first movie for the wrong reasons.

The best theory I've heard is that neither Todd Phillips or Juaquin Phillips wanted to do a sequel. But WB really really wanted it so they made the movie as a joke itself. (Kind of like how Joe Dante made Gremlins 2.) _edit:_ Wrote that early. Antonio has a good point about souring people on the character being a part of it. I think he's right. I agree with Aiden that it's not intentionally "bad", but I might say it's intentionally "meta".

OK, I've seen it now. Not bad. I would say it's not too ambitious in the way it skips over the causality details, but for a teen-focused character piece that's fine. (My pet peeve was making hydrogen the hard-to-get component, considering you can literally make it. Labeling it "liquid hydrogen" and storing it on a shelf makes it even worse. It didn't ruin anything, but that's just needlessly sloppy.) Anyway, I didn't see any "man girl" that you guys were going on about. The main girl was pretty nice though.
