What to Know

Critics Consensus

Joaquin Phoenix's eponymous Joker takes the stand in a sequel that dances around while the story remains still, although Lady Gaga's wildcard energy gives Folie á Deux some verve.

Audience Says

A broken Joker and his Lady’s voice provide Folie à Deux with enough kindling to keep a tepid fire burning for the clown prince of crime.

Joker: Folie à Deux | Rotten Tomatoes (1) John Wilmes Chicago Reader Set on tediously considering its predecessor, Joker: Folie à Deux offers nothing to the franchise. Oct 16, 2024 Full Review Joker: Folie à Deux | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Adam Kempenaar Filmspotting Dramatically inert, devoting 138 very deliberate minutes to revealing what was undeniable from the first film. Rated: 2/5 Oct 11, 2024 Full Review Joker: Folie à Deux | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Mark Kermode Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube) It is a very strange film... and I mean that as a compliment. Oct 11, 2024 Full Review Joker: Folie à Deux | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Lisa Johnson Mandell AtHomeInHollywood.com Fans wanted the film to be one thing, and director Todd Phillips gave them another. That’s his creative right, and for me it worked beautifully. Oct 27, 2024 Full Review Joker: Folie à Deux | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Sarah Marrs Lainey Gossip Whatever specialness Joker can lay claim to—it doesn’t appeal to me, but I recognize it works for a lot of people—is gone in Folie à Deux. It feels like a money grab, like any number of superhero sequels cashing in on a hit. Oct 26, 2024 Full Review Joker: Folie à Deux | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Filipe Freitas Always Good Movies While attempting to juggle multiple genres—a courtroom drama, a depressive musical, a twisted love story, and a social satire—it ultimately collapses under the weight of its own ambitions. Rated: 2/5 Oct 26, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Robert cahn Worst movie in a while almost fell asleep They should redo this movie like the first joker film less singing more plot! Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review Rod L Acting was good, but being a musical made hard to follow at times. Seemed a bit much and left a tarnish as compared to the first film. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review Deborah C Phoenix and Gaga had great chemistry, Phoenixs acting is outstanding but the movie was to long and kind of ridicules. The writers not the actors really missed the potential this story could have presented to the audience Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review MELISSA Slow paced and lack luster storyline Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review Ethan Completely pointless movie. Musical elements adding nothing to the story. The ending even ruined the first Joker for me Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review Jonathan B While it was a bit odd at times all the singing and dancing, this second installment of Joker was actually a pretty good film. I enjoyed seeing the Arthur Fleck character wrapped up in a fitting way. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review Read all reviews
