A Performance to rival Heath Ledgers

Rating: 10/10 (16 October 2019)

Let's start off with Joaquin Phoenix's performance. It was simply amazing. The way he portrays the Joker's descent into madness is believable, stunning and tragic all at the same time. Some say Heath Ledgers Joker is the best, but Phoenix portrays the descent and becoming of that character just as well.
The plot is a near perfect backstory, detailing how things go from bad, to worse, to crazy that lead to the demise of Arthur Fleck and the birth of the Joker. The downfall is set so well it makes us understand the way the Joker feels, and have sympathy for him, even if we don't agree with the action he takes because of his feelings.
Finally, the ending is as crazy and mental as the Joker is, but I won't spoil it here so you can enjoy it for yourself.
While I have tried to put what I think of this film into words, I would strongly recommend you go and see it for yourself, for it is one of, if not the greatest film of the year.
