    Could be wrong but I think “Joker” may be one of those movies where the immediate negative reaction looks very bizarre in hindsight. Critics unable to separate their assessment of the movie itself from the current “social and political context” blah blah blah

        They're desperate to insert politics into everything because whatever writing job they have is a cover for writing about politics

        It was already obvious that that was true even before it had its wide release.

        Reminds me of that time when Spike Lee's Do the Right Thing would instigate the race riot.

        Mikey talks about the Joker because he understands the Joker.

        I just think it is massively overrated. The social commentary was superficial, the central arc of becoming Joker wasn’t that effective.

        Don't listen to the critics, its been proven time and time again they have a bias praising "woke" and SJW type movies...

        I think it’s impossible to talk about this moviir without addressing the current social and political context, especially if you plan to enjoy the movie on any deeper level.

        I'm looking forward to seeing it. Critics (who are mostly left wingers) are once again embatrassing themselves with their hysterics and silly takes. The audience score is over 90℅ showing how out of touch these "professional" reviewers are with normal people.
