'Joker: Folie a Deux' review: Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix sing for no reason in pointless sequel
Briefly

The exhausted sequel, "Joker: Folie à Deux," struggles with purpose, ultimately failing to deliver a compelling narrative beyond disturbing scenes and musical performances.
Phillips' vision, particularly the attempt to weave a musical element into this disturbing narrative, feels jarring and out of place, overshadowing the core story.
Arthur Fleck's journey becomes monotonous as the film repeats his tumultuous actions without providing deeper character development or engaging context, rendering it less impactful.
The film attempts to build a relationship between Arthur and Harley Quinn, yet it fails to make it engaging, leaving audiences disconnected and uninterested.
