Over three years ago, the staff at The New Yorker who were part of a union announced and warned they might go on strike during a challenging first contract negotiation.

Opinions were divided among critics during the premiere of “Joker: Folie à Deux” at the Venice International Film Festival last month. On one hand, some reviewers like Eric Eisenberg from TopMob found it hard to endure due to its persistent brutality and excessive musical sequences.

As audiences begin to voice their opinions ahead of its 2024 release, it appears that the upcoming Batman movie is receiving some harsh criticism.
