I wanted to like it

Rating: 4/10 (4 August 2016)

Simply put it's disappointing. I went in with low expectations, and still couldn't wait for it to finish.
Directing is all over the place, the story is just one cliché over another. I talking about ten guys slow-motion walking in the middle of the street with heavy rock soundtrack kind.
Oh about soundtrack, the first part of the movie is just a music video. We meet the characters and while we do it we listen to a couple of 70's rock hits. Then after Black Sabbath's Paranoid comes Eminem with Shady's back. It's like dad/son made a greatest hits mix-tape.
Acting is not bad overall, with Margot just being excellent, and Will also not bad at all. But the script is full of loopholes and the dialogues are simply boring that the cast had very little to work with.
And thumbs down for the new Joker. He is a caricature, a gimmick, you can't really see him as a crime lord, let alone a dark twisted psychopath.
Anyways, I'd like my money back, please. I can see how a 15yo might like it but these guys giving it "10/10", "best movie of the year", "best pic eva!" are just here on behalf of the studio.
