Unironically I keep trying to figure out why people like it.
I keep watching positive reviews and I guess the flaws are explained away with an "unreliable narrator" excuse. Like all the clocks are all the same time except for one scene, so clearly there's something up. Cool. It's still bad.
Donnie Darko has a similar "Unreliable Narrator" expressing the same themes and ideas, but the characters and sequence of events is still solid. Falling Down is another similar movie with a series of whacky coincidences, but it works because the cops are still balls deep in Michael Douglas' ass the whole time.
In the end, EVERY SINGLE THING that happened in Joker is contrived by incompetence and coincidence and there are better movies with similar messages. I'm fucking burthurt that this is so popular when DD and FD get shafted by the collective conscious.
Please tell me why this is a good movie.
