Grossly Overrated

Rating: 1/10 (21 April 2020)

This movie is nothing but an over rated flix by the psycho teens when compared to what Nolan had given us. Joaquin Phoenix is a great actor, I agree. But he couldn't tally with 'The Heath Ledger'. Also,what this film lacks is a good script and direction. Now you may think me as a Nolanist, but I doubt you would do the same after you watch this. The film failed to give the kind of satisfaction you would get after Dark Knight.
Let me point out one or two things:
1. I felt like the Joaquin's joker had a feminine shade. Especially towards the end of the movie. This is in contrast with Nolan's joker.
2. Joaquin's joker aimed for fame and notoriety. However, the previous joker wouldn't even know what he was doing
the mischiefs for, if you asked him.
3. The script is mellow at places and as a result of the same the movie loses its pace here and there.

My verdict again : Overrated, grossly.
