Dark, Twisted and Wild - Brilliant

Rating: 10/10 (23 November 2019)

Joker is the best movie of 2019. This year in film, we got to experience Quentin Tarantino'a latest love letter to Hollywood with Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood. Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro teamed up once again after nearly 25 years in The Irishman. But, Todd Phillips has the throne in 2019 for his epic masterpiece Joker. Joaquin phoenix gives his heart, body and mind in a performance that perfectly captures a mentally troubled individual who adopts his true self in becoming the clown prince of crime. Phoenix gives his most powerful performance of his career which has rewarded us with top tier acting in Her, The Master and Gladiator. The twisted and beautiful cinematography by Lawerence Sher should earn him an Oscar along with Joaquin for best actor. This film is perfect.
