Joker 2 confirms streaming release date – and it’s soon
As a seasoned gamer of both the silver and digital screen, I must admit that my excitement for “Joker: Folie à Deux” has been dwindling with each passing day. Having grown up on the dark, brooding, yet captivating performance of Joaquin Phoenix in the original Joker, this sequel seems to have lost its way.
The much-anticipated film “Joker: Two Faces of Madness” is set to hit streaming platforms soon, with the U.S. premiere happening in just a few short days.
The sequel of the comic book has been released digitally for home purchase, while Max subscribers can start streaming it from December 13 (Friday). On the following day, it will be broadcasted on HBO.
In the UK, it is expected to first come to Sky/NOW next year.
The movie premiered in October, however, it failed to perform well at the ticket counter, achieving unfortunate milestones during its initial and subsequent weekends at the box office.
As a movie enthusiast, I’ve got to admit that the feedback on this recent flick has been overwhelmingly unfavorable. At the moment, its Rotten Tomatoes rating stands at just 32%, a figure that’s based on both professional critics’ opinions and those of fellow moviegoers like myself.
In our review for Digital Spy, we expressed that despite its efforts to blend genres and its unique concept, it comes across as a hollow, uninspired, and essentially superfluous continuation of the film “Joker”.
Fundamentally, neither Lady Gaga’s stardom nor Joaquin Phoenix’s dedication can rescue a film that seems intent on its own destruction… There’s a commendable audacity in presenting this portrayal of the character, deviating from what made the original Joker so captivating.
The finale delivers a powerful impact, introducing an idea that could have made the entire film valuable, yet unfortunately, it comes too late and lacks sufficient impact.
Before the movie flopped, both in terms of critical reception and box office success, director Todd Phillips already declared that there were no plans for a third film.
He stated, “This film doesn’t seem to be its intended direction for me.” He implied, “My association with the DC Universe has been limited to those two movies.
