But yeah, that ending was way too gruesome! 😱‼️😢 It actually made some people walk out!

I was shocked when every review for Joker: Folie à Deux came out negative, but after seeing it, I can understand why-especially when it comes to the ending. To start, every other part of this sequel is decent, although it’s a bit of a departure, taking on the feel of a love story musical. While Joaquin Phoenix delivers a compelling performance, and Lady Gaga might just be the best Harley Quinn I’ve ever seen, the movie’s heavy emphasis on dreamlike, musical sequences between Phoenix and Gaga caught a lot of people off guard. They spend a significant part of the film singing to each other, creating a surreal and often romantic atmosphere that’s not what many fans were expecting. But while I didn’t mind the musical direction, the film’s real downfall lies in its brutal ending. Without giving anything away, it’s extremely graphic and feels so unnecessarily gruesome that it leaves a bad taste after an otherwise decent experience. It’s uncomfortable to watch and definitely not suitable for younger viewers. If you’re planning to see Joker: Folie à Deux, go in with an open mind. There’s a lot to appreciate, especially in the acting and musical approach, but prepare yourself-the ending is intense and could be off-putting for some.

I watched it last night. And I was not good, I was paying attention hard, and it's all over the place. The explosion at the end was so unnecessary, and the direction it takes the characters needed to be scraped and changed. There was lack of intensity and anxiety, which is what I felt with the first one, nothing like that in the new one.

Sorry to say, I think I hated the new Salem's Lot more than you did. Way to suck anything interesting out of a concept! WHERE was the sense of the town being taken over? A few shots of newspapers piling up on porches? And you know they were just high fiving themselves over the Drive In foreshadowing...Oh so STUPID. The one, the ONLY good thing was Straker and they underused him and killed him off way too easy...Anyway, now Im going to go laugh my ass off at Djinn. Just thought you'd want to know....

I just watched again. I’m so peeved at this season. This seriously tainted the show for me. Molly was ridiculous. Sprinkles and cookie salads are for children, Romy was the best baker there and should have won. The most disappointing thing for me was the judges went along with that farce. Can you imagine the cake Romy would have made at the final?

Really sad to see that people don't like the movie, I still have to see it and I hope my opinion will be different but I doubt I'll like it since basically the whole world hates it.

I completely agree

I love quality cinema, I love movies that have great acting, storytelling, drama and are critical acclaim and Oscar bait as well as classics and I always go and see reviews of them and there are some who review multiple of them. But any film critic, buff, geek and viewer that likes widely acclaimed popular movies like the lord of the rings and godfather trilogies, casablanca, gone with the wind, Schindlers list, no country for old men, jaws ETC, ETC , ETC can also like some big dumb fun action movies from Michael bay and Roland emmerich, but would any of them tolerate a single transformers sequal ( which dark of the moon is the closest to a good one ) because I see some review it on rotten tomatoes negatively and I can understand the flaws of the cringe inducing moments with human charachters, cringey dialogue. Is it among the most embarrassing films ever belonging to if there were movies so spectacular in their stupidity they might not be even considered real movies because of how unpleasant and cringe inducing to watch they are such has been the case with Freddy got fingered, and disaster movie when there’s nothing happening expect meaningless nonsense.

I don’t think it’s the best since it’s still one of the sequals in which many to most critics gave negative reviews calling it lifeless and stupid but I would say it’s the best out of the four sequals that came after the 2007 film ( which is the true best in the franchise because of it having emotional impact, dramatic tension, intelligence and compelling charachters ) dark of the moon has impressive graphics and special effects on the robots and I love the way Optimus prime is depicted but there is still inane human moments with pointless charachters that don’t need to be shown much in the film and should have just been used as cameos also why did they have that scene with Ken jeong raping and wanking Sam labeouf in the bathroom it was just masturbating. That’s why it still has a weak script. The later part is better than the first half but it still isn’t that good and while I assume this wasn’t as critically panned as the 2nd, 4th and 5th films I still hear some negative things about it such as some rotten tomatoes reviews calling it souless, stupid and unpleasent. I hope the critics who gave it bad reviews trashing it don’t have anything against Michael bay and that they like some of his other films outside of transformers he is not the antichrist why did that idiot from New York post say that. Morons!!!!!

Thanks for such a great in depth analysis Gavin, I drove an hour away to see this on your passion for the movie! Holy smokes what an experience, I'm GenX and it really affected me, easily the best and most thought provoking movie I've seen in years.

I never saw this one. The Scariest Foreign film I have seen is the Chinese original of "The Eye", that movie scared the shit out of me when I was young, but even the american remake scared me.

Agreed. Another way over hyped by basement online critics. I was waiting for the moment something unique would happen and it didn't. It's not a bad movie but it's not the "amazing" cinema experience. Someone of these online movie watchers rarely watch anything older than the year 2000.

This review is better than the one you did of the 1979 version. There is loads missing from that 3hr version so i already know there is going to be alot cut from this. Apparantley the origianl cut of this movie was around 3hrs and had to be cut down from the studio. Hopefully a directors cut may be released in the future. I think the best thing they could of done with this story is either give it a 2 part theatrical release like ‘IT’ or made it a series. I would recommend reading the book, as that is such a great story which gets cut alot from all of the adaptions.

It's a terrible movie, trying to come off different and artsy. Predictable as soon as they end up in the hotel. The only saving grace is the relatively short run time, which still dragged for me.

Thank you for your empathy for this film. A lot of people are writing this film off as just a shallow take down of beauty when there is a lot to say about women's disposability and cycle of addiction, being ungrateful for life, and the need to be needed.

That's cause you're probably very young, nothing against you, that's how you feel.

I wish they would make Salem's Lot into a series like they did with Jerusalem's Lot in Chapelwaite, which I actually LOVED. It wasn't perfect and there were slow spots, but overall it was terrific...

Aww..what a damn shame. Im going to check it out for myself anyway because you and I have slightly different tastes and I have a ray of hope this will be one of those cases. I also really liked the 2004 (?) version....what did you think of that one?

I heard Eva Green stopped the show at the Suez Canal! (someone whispers something to me) Oh! "Evergreen!" HA! I wondered why that didn't make sense. (I'll show myself out.)

This is the absolute worst review of any movie I have ever seen in my entire life. You have the attention span of a squirrel and it’s hilarious.

I agree. I didn’t enjoy this movie. The animated movies and TV shows portrayed Barbie and her friends and family so much better than this overrated film.

Gavin, have you seen The Substance yet? It is fantastic.

It really is a great flick. A agree with this

I still need to watch this. I heard good things. 👍🏻

game suck after the spider boss it has basically nothing! the puzzle mostly timing who punish player, no story whatsoever, and it lazily designed to make play time longer

FR! For the entire time after the Interval, I was yawning like HELL!! Yeah! yeah- This movies is supposed to portray the shadow of the IDEA "JOKER" and not the actual person, but yeah whatever.... I was DISSAPOINTED!!

Everything you said about this movie, I 100% agree with you! I hated every second of it! It was such a lazy, pretentious, and annoying piece of crap!

Unpopular opinion: Madagascar 2 is overrated, and actually the worst one in the franchise. I just find a LOT of problems with this movie: 1- It's a King Lion rip-off. 2- Makunga's a pathetic lazy Scar wannabe, a pretty shitty unfunny villain overall. 3- Such a done-to-death, derivative ''son wants to be a perfomer while dad wants him to be a bruiser'' cliche-y plot. How original is it... 4- Zuba's a major idiot who basically caused his own problems. Everything was honestly his fault, not Alex's. And he never even gets recognized neither apologizes for this at the end. 5- Marty's unlikable in this one, his plot with the zebras was senseless, irrelevant to the rest, and I did side with Alex over him. Their fight is so stupid compared to the first one, and I didn't got emotional at all, I was just MAD at it. 6- Numerous retcons and continuity errors (Melman's crush on Gloria not existing on the first one, just propping out nowhere in this one. Alex's mark bith wasn't there in the original movie, and he never danced before too). 7- The worst of all is the plothole: why didn't the lions never eat the other animals in this movie? They just forget all the predator-prey drama and conflict in the first one? Why the lions seems to be friends with their prey, contrary to what was showed in the original movie??? MASSIVE PLOTHOLE. Nana, the Penguims and MotoMoto are actually pretty funny, and the positive points for me... they SAVE this movie for me. Madagascar 1 and 3 aren't perfect either, but they are a lot better than 2.

I thought it was okay.

Puss in boots 2 in 29 is crazy

“jokor”

That fruity guy doesn’t know what he’s talking about because that movie 🎥 creeps me out every time I see it

Yikes!! It's getting bad reviews across the board by alot of people. I still have to see it for myself, going this weekend.

Thanks Gavin!

It might have been a good performance but he wasn't the joker and that isn't a comic book movie.. I'm not a fan of this portrayal at all.

Coming from a guy in a Twenty One Pilots shirt.

I'll probably respond to this on my channel. I'm not trying to be a jerk or anything, but your arguments dont really work on any level. None of the other characters getting much screen time was intentional because it's told from Joker's perspective. None of the other characters needed to be deep because this was a take on Joker's character that wanted to focus exclusively on him.

You should watch "Tokyo Godfathers" one of the best films of all time.

Pretty good movie. I love the Studio Ghibli movies more. In fact more than Pixar and any animated studio.

the dark knight is overrated

Not getting a movie does not make it a bad film. There’s great films I hate but are still great… just accept that you’re not going to understand everything an artist does and move on. It is a great film that no one thought would make a dime yet it made a Billion. Who’s laughing now….

Your reasons are understandable and communicated well. However, I have to disagree. The characters aren't the most complex but I found I find them intresting in a very human way. Yes it's dark and miserable at points, but the freindship of the two main characters grounds it for me, it feels genuine and strangely pure with how straightforward and honest they can be with each other despite everything around them beeing shades of grey (figuratively and literally). The off beat humour also provides lighter moments to contrast the super dark stuff throughout the movie, so I find it personally more balanced then some other harsh movies that actually do fit your "misery porn" description for me. I can definitely see why it's not for everyone though, and I appreciate hearing your opinion as its so entertainingly different from my own I enjoyed your video, and getting a different perspective!

couldnt agree more, this movie is pure trash

I think the movie is just all over the place, trying way too hard to get an oscar

Absolutely love salems lot, im 48 and was a child when this movie came out (on tv) maybe your a younger guy and its to dated for you?

Autist-palsey review😂🤡🧠🧲

Watched it once and it was absolute shit. There's paying homage to another work, then there's blatant ripping off entire plot threads including casting the same actors. The "twist" with Zeze's character was so ham-fisted, clichè and obvious that it was coming. In what world was it plausible. She would never have liked him. We as an audience don't even have a reason to admire him (maybe pity him because he's beaten up, but not admire). The film's message is so bland and forced, having the therapist spout "people don't give a shit about people like you Arthur" is so cheesy. In what world would a professional therapist say such drivel that makes no difference upon hearing it (unless there's a secret audience watching you as a character and you're giving heavy-handed exposition?) Then the worst bit is people excuse everything by saying "it's all his perspective". They even set the film in 1981 and reference the Chernobyl meltdown of 1986 and people excuse it as "it's Arthur's SkEweD pErSpEcTiVe". It doesn't excuse a bad film. Every film is a crew's perspective brought to life - what's your point? Just because it's the Joker's worldview I'm supposed to accept lazy writing? Top it off with Joker being a whiny incel - basically Elliot Rodger in clown makeup - with cringy dancing and behind-the-scenes "stories", such as how the composer scored the bathroom scene "before the scene was filmed" with her "imagining Phoenix was dancing" and he just *happened* to be dancing on improv when they shot it. Films generally don't compose scores without footage, they work around a visual (in rare instances, films are edited around a score - look at the final scene for E.T. - they edited that scene around the John William's music because Spielberg loved the score so much he decided to let JW do a whole track to edit around). What the composer for Joker said was absolute bollocks. The script had him go in the bathroom to clean up after the shooting and Phoenix just "improvised" the dance? If he didn't dance, why would you film such a minor moment? You don't even see a closeuo of him when he runs down the street, so you don't even need such a throwaway clip of him in the bathroom. It's just pretentious myth-making drivel to make Phoenix sound like a god when he's just a method actor (and an annoying one at that, by looks of it). The Cockney improv as if we're all a 1960s Michael-Blahdee-Caine from Austin Powers 3? (UK resident here, can't stand that cliché). Couldn't stand the film when it came out with its forced political ideology, forced "mental-health" message (oh, show the plight of those who have mental health issues only to then walk right into negative stereotype territory by making him a homicidal maniac who inspires lunacy and violence. Just paints those who really do struggle with mental health in more of a bad light). Screenwriter's formula for Joker (2019) = Taxi Driver + King of Comedy + DeNiro (GeT iT? hE wAs iN bOtH oF tHeM!) + "because mental health" + Elliot Rodger in clown makeup + The Twist from Fight Club = movie.

Everything is overrated because every time there is something even remotely decent, there are at least a bunch of people giving it more credit than it truly deserves. Now pick up your diccionary and learn to what you want without having to resort to some word that has been turned into a meaningless oversused buzz- one.

Twenty One Pilots is an underrated band.
