This movie was so much worse than I expected

I decided to ignore its poor critical reception and give it a chance. There was zero character development and the little vignettes at the beginning didn't help matters. For the life of me, I can't understand what purpose Joker served. Seems like he was shoehorned into random scenes for fan service.

Yeah these "vignettes" was like a "need for speed" game from 2008.

The movie was bad. Zero character development as you said.
Joker was like a puppet.
Terribly written and directed.

I wouldn't watch this garbage ever again even if it was for free.

Serves you right for ignoring that many critics. When only 26% of them give it a pass and half of those weren't even telling the truth then you NEED to pay attention.

I'm betting defenders of this garbage are running down the clock for 2016. They can't wait to bury this mess.

Relive the misery.

Looking back at 2016, I still can't believe that DC delivered two of the five worst movies of the year.

Not that surprised, to be honest. After MOS, with DC and blind fanboys failing to understand why general audiences and some CB fans had contempt for that film, the future looked bleak back then. Today we are just witnessing the result of their stupidity...

The suffering involved in watching this movie was accidentally inflicted by inept film makers but it still hurts as if it was intentional.

Me too, I tried keeping an open mind but this thing is Phantom Menace bad: completely worthless.

Did you see that Razzie short list? DCEU up and down it.

And 2017 doesn't look any better for the DCEU.

It’s an absolute given that these movies are going to suck:

Justice League
xXx 3: The Return of Xander Cage
Fifty Shades Darker
The Great Wall
Power Rangers
Wonder Woman
The Emoji Movie
Transformers: The Last Knight

can anyone argue otherwise?

[–] Jayhawk777 7 years ago

Justice League will be worse than ewven xXx 3: The Return of Xander Cage.

[–] ranma_st 7 years ago

Yes

That's the kind of stank OJ Simpson has on him and it'll never go away even if he gets out of jail. Same for DC movies.
