Set the hook as a comic book movie, and real in the suckers.

Rating: 3/10 (25 October 2019)

So I really didn't enjoy the Joker movie and definitely can understand the people being upset. In my opinion it sucks people in thinking they'll see a comic book type movie, just as a marketing ploy and then leans heavily on trying to randomly include source material via namedropping "Wayne" . Then it's similar to the Movie Taxi Driver (made with Denerio) about a guy that goes crazy and kills people and is then celebrated for it and glorifies violence as "deserving it and embraced by people who understand and condone murder" not even entertaining in that just wallowes in self pity and shifting of blame for actions. If you want to make a movie like that, it can be done and done well obviously since it's taken from another movie. But don't try and use connections to comic books to increase the crowd draw and then expect people to be ok with it. Saying its societies fault when someone who deserves to be institutionalized and would be in real life and that society condones murder and it's not the killers fault is tone deaf in this day and age. Plots progression is unbelievable acting is great for sure.
