Tarantino:
I really, really liked it, really. A lot. Like, tremendously, and I went to see it expecting to be impressed by the filmmaking. But I thought it was going to be an arms-length, intellectual exercise that ultimately I wouldn’t think worked like a movie, but that I would appreciate it for what it is
And I’m just nihilistic enough to kind of enjoy a movie that doesn’t quite work as a movie. That’s like a big, giant mess to some degree. And I didn’t find it an intellectual exercise. I really got caught up into it. I really liked the musical sequences. I got really caught up. I thought the more banal the songs were, the better they were.”
As much as the first one was indebted to Taxi Driver, this seems pretty f—ing indebted to Natural Born Killers, which I wrote. That’s the Natural Born Killers I would have dreamed of seeing, as the guy who created Mickey and Mallory. I loved what they did with it. I loved the direction he took. I mean, the whole movie was the fever dream of Mickey Knox.
Todd Phillips is the Joker. The Joker directed the movie. The entire concept, even him spending the studio’s money — he’s spending it like the Joker would spend it, all right? And then his big surprise gift — haha! — the the jack in the box, when he offers you his hand for a handshake and you get a buzzer with 10,000 volts shooting you — is the comic book geeks. He’s saying f— you to all of them. He’s saying f— you to the movie audience. He’s saying f— you to Hollywood. He’s saying f— you to anybody who owns any stock at DC and Warner Brothers … And Todd Phillips is the Joker. Un film de Joker, all right, is what it is. He is the Joker.”
“On top of all that, I thought it was really funny,” Tarantino said, adding that he saw it in an “almost empty IMAX theater” in Tel Aviv where he could “laugh without bothering everybody. I know I’m laughing at scenes that other people wouldn’t be laughing it.”
It’s the movie of life
It does have a very human, sad and real story about love and existential issues, told in a beautiful way

im an hour in rn and im not getting the hate. nothing amazing like the first but still pretty decent
this was so BORING
was expecting a total car crash which would at least have been fun/ny
this movie is actually good, man. not the travesty everyone acting like it is.
At worst it's a 6/10. Just not what anybody wanted from a Joker sequel.
It will be reevaluated in a couple years

It’s pretty good. TikTok fried ppls brains

I think ppl are more frustrated with it than anything. But hey Tarantino loves it
Man f*** the critics finally got around to watching this and I'm convinced it's mostly cape s*** dweebs being protective over the joker character this s*** was fire, just like first one was anti comic book and even darker. One of more unique movies i seen this year. Joaquin and gaga killed it
