Over hyped, Overrated

I gotta disagree, but I can understand how you feel. I've felt that way about other overhyped (IMO of course) movies like Hereditary, The Witch, and Marriage Story.

But for Joker - the hype was real for me. I saw it after hearing all the hype, and I loved it! Great movie, IMO. I hope it wins Best Picture, and Joaquin wins Best Actor. Amazing movie. Sorry it didn't work for you. Every part worked for me!

Is it as good as a lot of people are saying? No. Is it still a great movie? Yes.

This movie is a 10. And what comedy are you talking about.

Over hyped, Overrated

but compared to what?

the irishman, frozen 2, star wars......jumani, once upon a time, the batman movies, the other super hero movies?

compared to those, it really is great

Everyone has a different opinion regarding everything. That's the way it has always been.

Why do you hope they aren't talking about Nolan's overrated/overhyped Batman trilogy? Is it because their opinion differs from yours, therefore is factually incorrect?

Also, on a side note:
Every time I go see a movie in theaters, I look for and head to the exit once it's finished. There isn't much reason to wait until the ushers kick you out. Whether the movie was fantastic or a disappoint to me, I always leave when it's over.

Overhyped is one word, not two.

Yep. People are forgetting about this film already lol. It just wasn't that good.

I would give it a 7/10 because of the solid acting. Overall, I was a bit disappointed because there was very little suspense in the film. Everything bad that can happen does happen and you know it is going to happen. It is still a good film, but I was kind of bored by the end.

I did like that it brings to the forefront a discussion on mental illness, current problems with that system, and how society can treat those individuals and push them aside. However, I did not like that they tied it to a comic book character who is truly evil. It didn't feel like the character that we know, and that they just slapped the names on there for a cash grab. He didn't feel like a villain, he was just someone who goes off the edge because society and his family failed him and he needs to be in a hospital.
