So dull

Rating: 3/10 (16 November 2019)

2 hours of movie with about 10 minutes of interest. The Joker is a study in how to take a beloved icon and turn him into a pathetic loser that no one cares about. This Joker isn't a clown prince of crime, he's a failed clown who is terrible at his job, terrible at life and needs to be medicated to prevent delusions of competency. Sure there is a subtext of how society is fails those who need mental help, but that theme is buried under the 'eat the rich' theme where the man trying to help pull the city out of a rut is demonized.
Frankly this movie is little more than an exercise in 'woe is me'-ism and not worth the time needed to watch it.
