wow...just...wow

Rating: 10/10 (23 October 2019)

I've never been a Joaquin Phoenix fan, Til today that is. Finally, for once, the reviews on IMDB were truthful. There's a reason its rated an overall 9 on here. Not sure how anyone can rate it less than 10, but whatever, i'll take it.
His performance in this film as Joker is nothing less than Oscar-worthy. I never thought I would actually be #teamjoker but I am. I'm not a comic reader so of course I never judge a movie based off of that. It was beautifully directed, and pointed a grim picture of what led up to Joker becoming Joker. Twists and turns in every direction. People complained that it took awhile to get going. NOT TRUE. I'm not going to go into a full synopsis of the film because you can read that on the main page. I'm just giving my thoughts. Best film of the year...if not the last 5 years that I have had the pleasure of watching. Movies have been trash lately, so its nice to finally see a gem like this. I'll say it again... OSCAR
