WittyUsername Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 I apologize that I’m once again bringing up the controversy surrounding Joker, but seeing how well Hustlers is doing both critically and financially has made me once again shake my head in frustration. So, Joker is a film that promotes intel culture and troubled white men, eh? If that’s the case, then shouldn’t Hustlers also be seen as problematic? That film is literally about strippers who drug and rob unsuspecting men, which is a blatantly criminal thing to do, and one of the actresses in the movie has actually done such things in real life. I’m not saying Hustlers is a bad film, but if Joker is getting crapped on for its supposedly problematic narrative, then why is Hustlers being praised as an example of female empowerment? 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly this response is the most vanilla comment ever. What are you 70? Do better grandpa.

Orestes Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 I guess there's a difference between robbing (mostly bad) rich people in a selfish robin hoodesque sort of way, and murdering folks because woe is me. Not sure I'd call empowerment the point of Hustlers, though. Maybe early on, but can't really talk about it in this thread since it'd be spoilers.

So 19 year old girls can feel empowered while they strip to pay their tuition? I know "we live in a society" is a meme, but honestly we've come to the point where people think we should empower stipprers rather than recognizing the job is a product of class and social inequality. What female or male would realistically ever want to be a stripper if there were legitimate opportunities of econmic stability? Sorry for the politics.

Orestes Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Thinking about it a second, I'd say the empowerment in Hustlers is the friendship between the leads, not the robbing. The robbing came later, and had major repercussions on their friendship. That's about as far into detail as I can go, though, without getting into spoilers.

Yet by all legitimate accounts, Joker never tells the viewer to sympathize or feel sorry for Joker. The movie wants you to condemn his increasing violent behaviour. Anarchy isn't the point of Joker. Showing the consequences, albeit radical, of society's callousness is the point. Ironically, negative reviewers have overlooked this point and...just treated the movie with total... callous🤔. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t want to discuss this any further after this post as it’s just not worth my time, But what I will say is my wife brought up the exact same point to me the other day, it wasn’t even something we discussed before as Hustlers was never even on our radar to see but I guess she read up about it etc. So I’m sure there’s plenty of people that agree with you but as I said to her, it’s just not worth discussing online as it always turns nasty.

No one is saying that Hustlers is female empowerment lol. It's a dramafilm based on a real story. No one actually thinks what they are doing is RIGHT.
