As a seasoned gamer and movie enthusiast with over two decades of experience under my belt, I must say that I find myself rather underwhelmed by the recent release of “Joker: Folie à Deux.” Having eagerly awaited its arrival, I was left feeling somewhat let down by the lukewarm reception it has received thus far.
The long-awaited film “Joker: Folie à Deux” has come out, but so far, it hasn’t left a particularly strong impact. Critics and audiences alike have been harsh towards the sequel on Rotten Tomatoes, with many tearing it apart. Even Todd Phillips’ musical movie is predicted to have a weak opening at the box office. Unfortunately, after receiving poor ratings from RT users, the film has made history as the lowest-rated comic book movie based on another rating system.
On the platform of both RT (Rotten Tomatoes) and CinemaScore, movies receive evaluations that reflect audience response. For instance, the upcoming movie “Joker: Folie à Deux,” led by Joaquin Phoenix, received a D rating on CinemaScore. It’s essential to note that this score is based on surveys of cinema-goers. Interestingly, this D rating makes “Joker: Folie à Deux” the film with the lowest score in CinemaScore’s history among superhero and comic book-related films. Previously, this record was held by the criticized 2015 movie “Fantastic Four,” which garnered a C-.
Previously hinted at, the ratings for Rotten Tomatoes aren’t exactly sizzling. The psychological drama musical currently boasts a 33% rating from critics, based on 258 reviews. Even more disappointing, the audience score is only 31%. Given this data, it seems clear that Warner Bros.’ most recent cinematic project, rumored to have a budget of around $190-$200 million, isn’t striking a chord with the majority of viewers.

In simpler terms, the Cinematographer for Joker 2 has confirmed a significant link between Batman once more, and here’s where you should glance to spot it.
2019’s “Joker” movie was highly favored when it came to audience ratings on CinemaScore. This film, which went on to gross over a billion dollars worldwide, received a B grade. At the time of its release, the movie sparked much debate but in the years since then, it has garnered a significant fanbase. It remains to be seen if the reception to its more recent sequel will evolve with time.
In the continuation of the tale, viewers reconnect with Joaquin Phoenix’s character, Arthur Fleck, who now finds himself in Arkham Hospital awaiting trial following his violent actions from the first movie. While imprisoned, he develops a romantic interest in a woman named Harleen “Lee” Quinzel. The narrative then unfolds using music to portray what appears to be the start of a dark and intriguing love story. Meanwhile, Arthur grapples with ongoing court proceedings that garner significant media attention.
Todd Phillips appears to consider this tale as complete and told THR he views this film as the conclusion of his work within the DC Universe. The ending of “Joker 2” left our own Sean O’Connell displeased, suggesting that the story Phillips intended to convey has reached its end. Given the poor CinemaScore and early box office figures, it seems unlikely that a sequel will be made.
