Phoenix, rises from the fire

Rating: 10/10 (25 December 2019)

Phoenix delivers such a tour de force about mental illness, in a funny, yet painful metaphor of our society today. He embodies mental disease in a terrifying performance, which gives rise to the worst and best villain, while imagined, this world has ever created. His take on The Joker is fearful for its honesty and realism, and how believable that such a reality could create a monster in today's world. Hats off.
