Very well acted out.

Rating: 8/10 (10 April 2020)

I admire the people trying to relate to the Joker, and I do understand the context of being alone and struggling to fit into the world, trust me, but the Joker is a mass murderer and a complete psychopath. Not a symbol of hope! Or a role model like some seem to be suggesting. My oh my this world does worry me sometimes. If he is then maybe you need to hand yourself into a police station before it's too late.
Anyway, regarding the film, Phoenix snr has always been a ridiculously good actor and so I wasn't too surprised by his performance in this film, which is absolutely brilliant. I'm a huge Batman fan (yup just said that) and I always watch films related to such very tentatively after the shocking couple of films in the 90's that were trying to cash in on the Michael Keaton era. However this was perfect and a very well rounded film and understanding to how Batman's arch enemy comes to be. If this is building up to something, I rather expect it to be something even more amazing that Christian Bale's portrayal of the Dark Knight films. Bring it on. Enjoy the film fellow film buffs.
