Best origin story ever told.

Rating: 9/10 (2 October 2019)

The first and the most important thing is that jokers can't be compared. Ledger's joker is a legend, but Phoenix's is no less. And this is not your average comic book movie for a 10 year old. Let's get that clear.
Now, let's talk about the movie.
Mind blowing. That's what I'll describe it as. The movie carefully pieces together a great, dark, mad world for the Joker. All of it feels so real, it's almost frightening. The script even goes out of the way to highlight the complete cycle of crime in Gotham, which is truly remarkable. And the acting. Where do I start. Be the judge yourself l, better yet. Also, Robert De Niro is a sight to behold in his role as a talk show host. The final act is complete mayhem and a fitting crescendo to the orchestra that is the Joker. DC fans won't be disappointed.
