'Joker: Folie a Deux', the latest DC Comics film directed by Todd Phillips and starring Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga, has suffered a significant drop in its critics' rating. According to the latest data on Rotten Tomatoes, the film now holds a 39% rating, making it one of the lowest-rated DC films of all time.
Since its release on October 2, the highly anticipated sequel to Phillips' 2019 blockbuster 'Joker' has struggled to win over critics and audiences alike. Despite high expectations following the critical and commercial success of the original film, the sequel's darker tone and musical elements seem to have alienated some reviewers. The 39% rating puts 'Joker 2' below the 2017 film 'Justice League', which managed to hold onto a 40% rating despite facing its share of controversy.
