Joker - the fight club of our generation

Rating: 9/10 (4 October 2019)

I've never written a review before. This movie deserves praise. It's not an action packed movie like fast & furious. It's not some villain who's causing a good guy hassle but is good at that. This is a complex movie with layers that get unveiled very slowly.
I usually don't like slow burners but with Joaquin Pheonix in this movie, I was gripped. His acting can give you goosebumps. The cinematography is absolutely on point with the theme. The sound is really done well and creates some real hair raising moments.
What I like most of this movie is the uncertainty. There comes a point when you feel like you know where the movie is heading and you're just proved wrong. You don't know what the he's going to do next.
To further talk about the paragraph above I genuinely thought that he was going to kill himself on the show towards the end of the movie. I had doubts on whether this would happen until he teases one of the guys before he lets him go. At this point I was disappointed because I believed he would kill himself.
I like the fact that they show you some some things that you see are not real and it brings about a question of whether anything else could not be real.
Overall , this movie is really good. Joaquin Pheonix's perfomance is brilliant and at times unreal. This is one of the movies that will have to be rewatched.
I give this a solid 10/10.
