Not-your-typical-comic-book-movie masterpiece!

Rating: 10/10 (3 October 2019)

A movie focusing on the origins of the most notorious comic book villian by the much acclaimed 'Hangover' director Tod Phillips is nothing short of a absolute masterpiece! This movie is a primarily a character study of a guy named Arthur Fleck who is facing all kinds of ordeals thrown by life. Joaquín Phoenix portrays Fleck brilliantly, portraying his vulnerability and at the same time, his demented mind. His portrayal is truly worthy of high praise and it is just a treat to watch his amazing transformation from Fleck to Joker! Also riveting is the cinematography of this film! The visuals depicted of Gotham city are beautiful and come off as individual characters themselves! All in all, Joker is truly a must watch movie!
