I really don't understand how we went from that dark sad story about Arthur Fleck to this kind of musical! Who on Earth thought that this was the natural progression for this story. Joaquin Phoenix was still excellent in the role and Lady Gaga was OK no complaints there but the whole concept was just mad and not in a good way. It looks like someone just couldn't figure out how to take the Joker forward and they were sitting around smoking something and someone said "hey let's make it a musical and get Lady Gaga in". I thought the Joker movie was excellent, Phoenix was well worth that Oscar. In fact it is one of the few movies in recent years that has actually stayed with me afterwards so sadly this effort is a real disappointment for me.
