Absolutely BLOWN. AWAY.

Rating: 10/10 (6 October 2019)

I never write reviews but this film has been ingrained in my head ever since I watched it that I was compelled to do so. It blew past my expectations, to say the least and my expectations were already sky high. Everything was so perfect! I'll try to keep it short as I break down what stood out for me.
First, the film's score. It was so well made I cannot stress this enough. It fit every single scene and made them that much more powerful. It establishes a connection between you and the character. I felt what he was going through to the point where i was rooting for him.
The cinematography was beautiful! Whether it was a close shot focusing on the joker or simply a wide shot showcasing the environment around him, it was astonishing.
The acting was phenomenal and that is an understatement in my opinion. Joaquin immensely knocked it out of the park. He embodied the character so well. I truly believe this is one of the best if not the BEST adaptation of the joker.
I will say 1 thing for those who are hesitant towards comic book movies, it did not feel like such. Even if you're not a fan of comic books, you can still enjoy it as much as anyone else. It has such a deep meaning which will leave you thinking for days. This film will truly, without a doubt, leave a huge mark in cinematic history.
