Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix’s highly anticipated movie, “Joker: Folie à Deux,” received a lukewarm response from critics and fans alike, despite a 10.5-minute standing ovation at the Venice International Film Festival. The psychological thriller, a sequel to the 2019 blockbuster “Joker,” failed to impress with many considering it a disappointment.
The film’s narrative was deemed “thin and dull” by The Hollywood Reporter, while IndieWire described it as “boring, flat, and a criminal waste of Lady Gaga’s talent.” The Guardian noted that Gaga’s character lacked development, leaving audiences feeling restless and unfulfilled.
The negative reviews come as a surprise, given the success of the first film, which grossed over $1 billion worldwide. However, it seems that “Joker: Folie à Deux” failed to live up to expectations, with many criticizing its uneven pacing, lackluster plot, and underutilization of Lady Gaga’s talent.
