Chilling to the core

Rating: 9/10 (4 October 2019)

Joker is a film that will leave you speechless. From the twisted origin of one of pop culture's iconic villains to Joaquin Phoenix's transcendent performance as the title character, Joker will surprise you time and again. The arthouse-vibe works to perfection in telling the the story of a man who is abandoned by society and has nothing left to lose. As of the film's release, the Best Actor Oscar is Phoenix's to lose. He is phenomenal and the centerpiece of this fantastic social commentary that elevates the comic book genre to greater heights.
