one of the best dark thrillers of our time

Rating: 9/10 (5 October 2019)

The best performance i have ever seen by an actor,period..I really felt concerned that Phoenix really lost it and went insane..His expressions his laugh his reactions everything that he does makes you forget that he is acting and that he really suffers from some disease ..Despite this absolute oscar winning masterpiece of a performance though,there is also a very strong plot that builds slowly step by step helped by the really beautifully dark cinematography that makes it even more appealing .The second star of this film after Phoenix,for me at least, is the soundtrack..It bounds his creepy performance,its dark cinematography and its terrific plot in the most disturbing way,making the film so powerfully depressing that it gets to you..I leave the violence thing for the end,because many things have been heard and written.We're talking about Joker and DARK DC in an R-rated movie,what did they expect ? Flowers and sunshine ? There are movies out there that are even more violent but in the end,none of them is as violent as the real world that we live in.
