The Joker of our time

Rating: 10/10 (6 October 2019)

What an experience. At first I did not want to believe the hype. I avoided the trailers and wanted to experience this movie with a fresh mind. And what an absolute pleasure it was watching it.
The movie beautifully and elegantly captures the perfect portrait of the Joker of our time. All the Jokers we had were portrayed to their timeline. And today, where mental illness is relevant in our society, this is the perfect adaptation of the Joker in our time.
You cannot compare Heath Ledger's joker with Joaquin Phoenix's. Both had incredible performances, but Phoenix's joker is different. This is not the criminal mastermind we are used to. This Joker is broken and shattered.
Overall, this is the best movie of the year. I wouldn't be surprised of this movie got nominated, as well as Phoenix's performance
