If it wasn't about THE super villain, it'd be amazing.

Rating: 7/10 (1 January 2020)

If it's not considered in the context of DC films and Joker as a Batman villain, this is an amazing film. But this guy is way too soft and not intelligent enough to become Batman's eventual super-nemesis. Especially after he gains confidence and becomes an actual villain, he doesn't sound threatening in any way. He sounds effeminate when he is on the Murray show.
As the rise of a generic psychopath, the film is masterful. Joaquin's acting is phenomenal and the script is amazing.
