Would have never thought the MCU would get this lame. I was bored throughout the majority of the film (a 1st for an MCU flick for me). Way too much exposition without anything of substance happening— and only interspersed by mostly uninspired action with one watchable action scene at the end. Only saving grace of the film was tying up loose ends from The Incredible Hulk film from 20yrs ago. But sad it was done in this way. Introduction of…
I watched this movie again recently after not seeing it since I was a high school kid. It floored me how powerful it is. This film is not entertainment. It’s education. Not one second wasted. It should be an essential watch for every human on this planet. Oskar Schindler is what a hero looks like. Liam Neeson is superb. Spielberg is a filmmaking genius.
My guess?
Todd didn’t have it in him (or simply lacked the desire) to make a Christopher Nolan type film. And that’s exactly where a sequel would have needed to go after the set-up of the 1st film.
The 1st movie was a masterclass in making the Joker. Amazing character development and believable transformation from a nobody to a somebody with real deadly power…while also expertly communicating some scintillating social commentary.
This film, focused on doing the opposite. Unmaking the Joker….and let’s be honest, no matter how well done…is just gonna be less…fun.
If anxiety was a movie.
Genuinely existentially funny.
Not onboard with the no plot device. Feels lazy to me. ..Even if that’s kind of the bit.
