DONT LISTEN TO THE BAD REVIEWS

Rating: 9/10 (10 January 2020)

If the topic of mental illness is disturbing to you DONT WATCH. If you plan to watch with your small children DONT DO IT (Show them "LEGO Batman"). That being said, this is an incredible depiction of the making of an archvillain and his descent into insanity offered with an utterly HUMAN explanation so if you're expecting some nonsensical tale about a man falling into a vat of chemicals that transforms him into a demon with a permanent smile using acid spraying lapel flowers and gassing men in tights while the word "POW" and BOFFO flash across the screen during the first fights THIS FILM IS NOT FOR YOU. Joaquins performance will haunt you and may even repel you but you definitely won't forget it. Despite the complaints of some regarding the action, remember this: Joker ISNT a superhero and never was.
Watch this and then make up your own minds. Nobody's laughing at DC now because this film just outdid every crappy film MARVEL put out.
