Joker was really close to being a great movie, but was ultimately too confused about what it wanted its message to be. Unless the message was just "I'm fed up, let's get violent already".
Ngl, I think that was the message. As in "this is my backstory", end of story.
What made it good was perhaps more in how it was done.
Not every movie needs a moral of the story moment...
