As perfect as a movie can be

Rating: 10/10 (29 April 2020)

If you don't like this movie. Or god forbid. Hate it. Then you are either small minded. Or are too used to seeing quick cuts for the small attention span that a lot of people seem to have now at days. You see it in action flicks as well as comic book movies. Instead staying true to cannon. They try to appease to a wider audience. Let me be straight. This is not a comic book movie. Nor does the joker ever appear. Only Arthur Fleck. Who's life was so horrible. That one day he reads a Batman comic and identified with Bruce Wayne. Therefore. Realizing that his own life was so horrendous. He believes and created in his mind that he was a part of the comic book world. If I'm wrong. Why is Joker 40 and Batman a mere child. Why would Wayne take his family to a movie and then, with riots in the streets, decide to walk down a dark alley way!? It is a masterful realization when you begin to truly understand this cinematic masterpiece. In a day when flashing lights and incoherent stories are considered great cinema. It is refreshing to see Todd Phillips create something that quite frankly is perfect in every way. No sequel is needed. Everything has been said. If you can't see that. Then you are the reason we keep getting trash into theaters. I can enjoy a popcorn flick as much as the next person. I love movies like John Wick and the Raid franchises. And have enjoyed marvel movies. But this movie is on a different plane. That said. The Raid movies will always be my favorite. But. This movie deserves to be recognized as a classic. I think some people have issues with this film. Because And I'm about to offend some people. In this movie. The white man is not the bad guy. But he is the victim. And in today's world that just can't be.
