A realistic view into a villains uprising - finally !

Rating: 10/10 (9 October 2019)

Before I touch upon the content of the movie , I have to say the vibe it creates is like a Taxi Driver of the modern age with super villain in the making overtones ; which is funny because Deniro is in the joker , I wonder if the director did this purposefully ?
Anyways , this movie was an amalgamation of emotions stirred up for a person I didn't think I ever cared for , aside from being a badass in a previous portrayal by Heath. Let's put this to rest right now ; Joaquin's Joker was so real to the point that I connected on a more personal level (than previous jokers including heaths) and I can see authenticity in this joker being THE joker that eventually faces off with Bats - even in this "depressing" formative period of his .... despite being exposed to an action packed super intelligent Heath Joker years before this .
The feeling of powerlessness and a world against you is really what gets you down through your first 40 minutes or so in the movie but it's not a depressingly down feeling it's more of a contemplatively-down feeling for Arthur's condition and his situation in life . Essentially , it's hard to NOT feel for Arthur as opposed to what previous movies would conjure up in us for the joker - which always painted him as a one sided villain as opposed to the complex more than human Joker we see in this film.
Overall the scenes were shot so well I felt like I was watching an old movie, which also helped complete the feeling of taxi driver (also that revolver Joker gets seems like a snubbed version of it), but also gave the setting of the film a perfect alibi - this WAS INDEED the time before Batman ; and we can tell from the scenery , the outfits and the props ... very well done. I feel although there's no promise of a sequel , the director and cast HAS to deliver a sequel - as the roller coaster ride of this journey has just begun and they really pulled the tempo of the film off correctly as to really entice us to be hungry for more screen time of Arthur In his very earliest joker years .
If I could , I would see this made into a tv series as it seems so realistic with the way it displayed this joker , and the action was spread out enough to create suspense and many other emotions . If this was done I would expect them to cast Joaquin , due to his great performance , or at least someone that can emulate his exact performance and demeanor - as this was a performance I didn't expect to "attract" me so much as it did .
Great film , 10/10 for me - if it weren't for the critics mindlessly bashing this title I wouldn't have written this review , but I feel like this is something we need to speak up about because everyone seeing this film either really likes it or LOVES it - BESIDES the critics ... hmmm I wonder why ? Maybe it has something to do with the AGENDA of those that wish to push a specific NARRATIVE for their platform? Look that's fine and all but please be a bit more transparent with your bias if you choose to run a review website .
Compare the critics to the user reviews , how many of each one and you will see who the liars are and who is telling the truth about the movie . Everythings an "opinion" they will say after slanging dirt in an untruthful review ... ok that's fine but don't go bashing something that was shot , edited , directed , and written WELL and try to pretend like it's just some unbiased opinion, we can see through that !
I, like thousands of others , went into the film UNBIASED and loved it , do the same and you will too ; go in there thinking the movie will have your incel neighbor boy kill you , you will leave there confused just to go on your critic profile on meta critic and bash for no reason and that will guarantee you have a bad time under the guise of social semantics .
