Does the society give birth to monsters? Or is it mostly genetic?
This is the very philosophical question that the movie addresses.
And boy, it does so in a horrific brutal way.
Joker is not a Marvel-esque shallow movie. It's a deep, thought provoking one. Somewhat disturbing too.
And the movie has been executed in a masterful way. Deserves several Oscars - acting, direction and score especially.
Heath Ledger is still a better Joker, but the conversion from a sympathetic mentally ill person to the dark Clown Prince of Crime was astoundingly portrayed by Joaquin Phoenix.
He was creepy, scary and unsettling, and has my standing ovation.
