Ugh, you enjoyed a popular movie that also conveyed a message? Come back when you only watch Hanneke without subtitles, normie.
Very smart douchebag
While at the same time not pointing out anything about the movie they are reviewing.
I loved this movie honestly
And that is fine. I personally thought it was okay. But it appeared to me that a lot of people had the sentiment that this was the first movie that ever “gets them”.
It doesn’t have to be. There’s enough movies that depict isolation, loneliness, and outsiderism. But since this was coming from a supervillain franchise it seemed that a certain demographic suddenly stumbled into more serious topics processed through a movie with a familiar theme while they could have had that all along, just without the theme, but based in reality and executed better.
Edit: clarification
Yes, people liked a movie about isolation, loneliness, and outsiderism that met them halfway.
I dig directors like Aki Kaurismäki and Lars von Trier as much as anyone, but a lot of people don’t find them “accessible”.
Agreed, you gotta put in some work but it’s worthwhile. Melancholia is the best movie about Depression I’ve seen so far.
Melancholia is about melancholy silly.
I thought it was a tribute to the Smashing Pumpkins album
It’s not that it’s a bad movie, but some people act like it’s some groundbreaking stuff. But it’s basically taxi driver, but not as good.
It’s King of Comedy meets Taxi Driver, but Batman.
Personally (anecdotal) I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone raving over how this movie was groundbreaking.
But every time it comes up there’s lots of people saying “ACTUALLY it’s NOT that ground breaking!” a la the stop-having-fun meme.
I mean yeah it was the “same kind of movie” as Taxi Driver. And Empire Strikes Back was the same kind of movie as A New Hope. Big deal.
As far as superhero movies goes, it was refreshingly off beat from the rest of the carbon copy avengers movies we’ve had shoved down our throats. And the climax of the movie was really powerful, in a way that wasn’t done before in Taxi Driver or otherwise. The last 10 minutes justified the entire movie on its own.

I find this utterly hilarious, and I’d have a hard time explaining why.
It makes fun of something you have a low opinion of?
Just a general good quip that paints a clear picture
I’ve never seen the movie, and don’t really have an opinion of it though.

thinking about this legendary joker review
[A screenshot of a movie review for Joker (2019) is shown. The review states “if you’ve never swam in the ocean then of course a pool seems deep.”]
