The most relevant movie of your times.

Rating: 10/10 (6 October 2019)

Even though this is a Joker's origins story, and it gets the job done in a gritty, psychologically smothering manner. It explores themes that are relevant in our society today, mainly that of empathy. It is painful to watch the movie as the main character struggles, with their life, mental illness, loneliness, apathy and bullying from others. It also explores the tense dynamics between rich and poor in Gotham city which keeps it whole in suspense.
The biggest lessons are to be found in media which drove some mindless people into a frenzy and hysteria towards hating this movie, the mainstream media elite now decide who deserves your empathy, what's funny and who are the scum of society. This movie perfectly touches on these themes in the end.
The cinematography is beautiful, the music is haunting and in well placed moments. However, this is not an action movie like dark knight begins, it's where 0 turns to 1. The Joker is on a journey of downfall and rebirth then self-discovery.

Easily, one of the best movies in 2019.
