Movie Review: Joker: Folie à Deux

Joaquin Phoenix is back as the Joker in this musical sequel

. A return to the squalid, Batman-less Gotham of the original, with Joaquin Phoenix returning to the mesmerizing, pathetic, fascinating, terrifying part that garnered him an Oscar, seems like an easy sell. But once audiences get there, they’ll be confronted with a gruelingly miserable psychological study of a depraved, self-pitying mind that leaves no room for pity – but does squeeze in a bunch of musical numbers.

The major miracle about the original was that audiences actually responded to its over-the-top psychological drama. It’s arguably that response – plus the mass shootings that never happened – that have inspired Philips and Phoenix to team up again for a seemingly unplanned sequel.
