00:00Joaquin Phoenix's highly anticipated film Joker Folly Adieu hit the Indian box office
00:05screens two days before the US release on October 2.
00:09As Joaquin Phoenix returns as Joker, Lady Gaga has joined the Todd Phillips film as
00:13Joker's love interest Harley Quinn.
00:15DC fans who eagerly awaited the next chapter were in full spirits while they headed towards
00:20the theatres to watch Joker Folly Adieu.
00:23However, the film has not come out as strong as the viewers expected it to be.
00:28Joker 2 fell flat on the screens with Lady Gaga individually being praised for her over-the-top
00:33performance.
00:34Right from the fans and critiques, everyone has called out the film dull and boring.
00:39The 2019 film Joker's sequel starts out as a twisted, exhilarating love story between
00:45Joker and Lee which is then forced to make room for a dull courtroom drama that mostly
00:50discusses the events of the first film.
00:52This love story angle is far more interesting than Arthur's trial mostly because Lady Gaga
00:57proves to be an electric presence on screen.
01:00The odd chemistry between Gaga and Phoenix is enough to fascinate but their love story
01:05feels superficial.
01:06Gaga isn't given much else to do than either sing breathlessly or belt out familiar songs
01:11which has somewhat disappointed the fans to the core.
01:15Netizens have swarmed the internet with negative reviews to air their thoughts on the same.
01:20A user came out discussing on X that Joker Folly Adieu is a complete disappointment and
01:25a plagiarized version of the prequel which has made it unworthy of appreciation.
01:30Mocking out the movie, another user on X said,
01:33They say, don't believe people's reviews but go and see the movie for yourself.
01:37So I went to see Joker 2 and honestly if I didn't go, I wouldn't have realized that
01:42it wasn't really a bad movie but the worst movie of the decade.
01:47People liked Harley Quinn's role in the movie but stood upset because the character
01:50struggled to justify its existence in the movie throughout.
01:54Critics have concluded that Joker Folly Adieu, like every other film, continues Hollywood's
01:59recent trend of producing loads of musicals only to try and bury their musical elements
02:04from the audience.
