Very well made and acted

Rating: 9/10 (17 October 2019)

I was astonished to see more than 5,000 reviews posted for this film. That means a lot of people have seen this and are talking about it. The basic premise of this film involves a man trying to bring joy into the world while battling mental illness.
The city of Gotham and our main character seem to be linked as both are on a downward spiral. There is a combination of him living with the choices that he makes as well as dealing with the things he can't control. I suggest you see this film when you are in a real good mood for it will not be a feel good movie. Might I also suggest you either go on an empty stomach or keep an empty bag of popcorn to throw up in for there is one gruesome death scenes that might even make Ridley Scott say "Holy crap." Joaquin Phoenix's performance was nothing short of phenomenal. He definitely carries the film and the box office success loudly proclaims that the public is in agreement. Todd Phillips and Bradley Cooper are once again a winning team from behind the camera.
