Joker 2 Actor Reveals 'How Terrible' The Movie Is In Scathing Review: Not Even Hate-Watchable

The much-anticipated Joker sequel starring Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga which released in cinemas in October this year turned out to be a box office dud. Tim Dillon, who was part of the film criticised it in a recent interaction.Tim Dillon: This was loved by worst kinds of peopleTim Dillon recently shared in The Joe Rogan Experience about the film he has been part of Joker 2. He said, “I was in Joker 2 which just came out. It is the worst film that has ever been made. I think what happened, after the first Joker, there was a lot of talk like, ‘Oh, this was loved by incels. This was loved by the wrong kinds of people. This sent the wrong kind of message. Male rage! Nihilism!’ All these think pieces. And then I think, ‘What if we went the other way,’ and now they have Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga tap dancing to a point where it’s insane.”File photo of Tim Dillon from Joker 2 | Source: IMDbTim Dillon further said, “It has no plot. We would sit there, me and these other guys were all dressed in these security outfits because we’re working at the Arkham Asylum, and I would turn to one of them and we’d hear this crap and I’d go, ‘What the f*** is this?’ And they’d go, ‘This is going to bomb, man.’ I go, ‘This is the worst thing I’ve ever seen.’ We were talking about it at lunch, and we’d go, ‘What is the plot? Is there a plot? I don’t know, I think he falls in love with her in the prison?’ It’s not even hate-watchable. That’s how terrible it is”.Joker 2 reviewsWhile Joker 2 has been premiered at various film festivals in the rest of the world, it has gotten an early release in India. There were mixed reactions among the users as soon as the film released.File photo of Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix | Source: IMDbOne user wrote, “Many years ago I did a version of this as a parody, never thought I'd see a Joker musical”. Another user wrote, “Absolutely. When was watching it I told my wife it all seemed like I’d seen it before. Then it hit me and I started looking up the comparisons and it feels like plagiarism. Hell it even has the same actor in an inverse role”. “Regardless of the films quality I always find it really funny how so many people complain about “filmmakers don’t take risks anymore”, and then this is the kind of discourse that happens almost every time a film takes a big risk”, wrote the third user.Todd Phillips' directorial musical psychological thriller film Joker: Folie a Deux, received a standing ovation at the 81st Venice International Film Festival.
