Reply to comment by digitalhandyman in ‘Joker 2,’ starring Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga, to film in N.J. by JerseyWiseguy

You can like something and still admit it's garbagte. Thats ok, we're not judging you.

Example: I watched The Walking Dead to the end. Pure garbage. And thats ok.

Here are what cinema expert say.

>Never evolves beyond scene after scene of painful slights, degradations, and worse - empty provocations.

>Joker is a self-serious movie that, in spite of its lead, posits itself as revolutionary when it never hovers above bland and tasteless.

>Bleak and juvenile

>Joker is a bad movie, yes: It's predictable, clichéd, deeply derivative of other, better movies, and overwritten to the point of self-parody.
