How about you explain to me what you didn't like or how your takeaway is different from mine.
So far I'm just seeing the plot was trash (what about the plot is trash?) and that it's a musical (which I think the musical scenes are overblown)

I LIVE IN A CARDBOARD BOX!
Saw on instagram the director said
he’s not the joker..
that kills and spoils and urge I had to see this movie.
He’s a dumb a$$hole. It literally says in the script that he wrote for the first one that he’s The Joker.

Caught this yesterday and don’t regret it at all. It probably helped that I had super low expectations due to all the negative reviews. This shyt is getting unfairly hated on. The musical numbers aren’t as close to as bad as people are making them out to be and are all kept pretty short. It’s not like a La La Land or Westside Story where musical acts drag on for 10-15 minutes at a time. The ones on here were usually only a couple minutes long and made sense for the most part. They fit into the story perfectly fine. There were only a couple that seemed unnecessary but they were easy to overlook imo. I’m convinced most of the people hating on this didn’t even see it and just refuse to watch anything with the word “musical” attached to it. I would say about 70% of the movie is normal dialogue. I don’t even think you can technically call that a musical. I wasn’t looking forward to the 2 hour runtime but it actually went by pretty quick. In conclusion I would say definitely check it out if you enjoyed the first one. :yeshrug:
That's me. I saw the negativity and had low expectations going in(I was already not feeling the musical direction when it was announced), but I left the theater liking what I saw.

That's cool you liked it tho. Not everyone is gonna hate it. But seems like most people did. :manny:

Now on to Gladiator 2 which I expect to be like gladiator and not a musical.
