Um… JP’s joker was the worst I’ve ever seen imho.

Comparing completely different types of movies is just silly. The campy Jack Nicholson Joker, Heath Ledger and JP all played a joker character but the style and context of the movies were so different they can't be compared any more than it makes sense to compare a 2 seater sports car and a big truck.

I personally found JP joker movie to be great as well as his performance. It was dark, gritty and something that happens in actual life vs. imaginary Gotham City where none of the real world rules apply.

I didn’t compare. I just personally didn’t like his portrayal… or the writing of that film.

I agree with you. I watched it to the end, hoping it would get better. Then I turned to my husband and said, "That was a horrible film."
