Highly overrated

Rating: 5/10 (17 May 2020)

Joaquin phoenix is no doubt a great actor. This movie is basically a homage to him playing an insane person. Probably much ad-libbing. But the story itself was pretty poor. Not much in the way of setting up the making of one of Batman's arch enemies. Not very believable at all that this disjointed nut would ever be able to counter Batman someday. I think filmmaker forgot that was the point of the whole story. It's like they used the joker character to make some kind of statement about mentally unstable people, but if you made a movie called " depression" or " crazy person" no studio would fund it, and nobody would watch..very very overrated.
