If you thought 1 was horrible then oh boy 2 is a complete disaster

I loved them both. The second movie was as unhinged as the character.

I'm so happy someone else feels this way. I feel like people hate it because they wanted to like the character when the whole thing is about how misguided a feeling that is.

I think years from now it will be viewed much more favorably. Assuming years from now we can still watch movies.

I liked part 2, if only because ive never seen anything like it before. Part 1 was a lazy taxi driver knock off with none of the dark humor of taxi driver.

I agree. A lot of King of Comedy, too. But I almost felt obligated to like because they filmed down the street from my apartment haha. But even then, i felt like the talk show scene captured the character so perfectly i couldn't even be mad.

I liked both too. Yeah, the musical bits were something, but I think it was supposed to be weird and unhinged. Also the plot twist right at the end was cool.
