I hate to see dead threads so I’ll start… critics said it was… Boring… Is that true?
It’s only boring because it doesn’t really go anywhere.
I was intrigued with the first half of so, but the film does a flip near the end that just takes the film ultimately nowhere.
Just came back from it, I regret sleeping on La La Land, because had I watched it, I would have skipped Joker 2
Because of the musicals? It had a few numbers but I didn’t feel like it dominated.
