Absolute masterpiece.

Rating: 10/10 (4 October 2019)

Well, where do I start. This movie is phenomenal and if Phoenix does not get an Oscar, I really do not know who should. I have seen numerous way worse Oscar winners and performance of this man was not only very good or convincing - it was hypnotic.
However, I have a one huge advice for everyone willing to see this movie - DO NOT watch is as a superhero movie (do not try to compare him to previous Jokers, do not try to follow the lore, etc.). You will be disappointed. It is an utterly different genre and experience.
Watch it from the point of view that every single one of us may be in Joker's place. We just need one bad (good) day. And only then this movie will reveal its brightest colors.
