Joker Joker

I was curious about the second Joker movie, partly because it made some people angry for silly reasons, so I thought I'd use my temporary Max pass to check it out. I didn't remember the first one very well, so I watched that too. 

That was one bland, depressing evening! Ugh. The first one had a few moments. It kind of worked for me, and the shots of the city were great. The second, just, ugh. The singing parts are painful to watch. Not-Harley Quinn was kind of an interesting character, but not enough to carry the sack of dead manatees that was the plot. 

I never cared much about loyalty to the DC characters, but even I feel like the Joker isn't the Joker unless he's brilliant and over-the-top crazy. This Joker is barely average, and his mental illnesses are difficult to distinguish from just being stupid. 

Please, for the love of God, don't make the same mistake I did.
