Excellently lays the foundation of the Joker, the person

Rating: 10/10 (7 October 2019)

This movie is truly one of a kind. Joaquin Phoenix does a great job of portraying the complexity of the Joker's inner struggle of understanding who he is while he is simultaneously gaining a clearer understanding of where he fits in society. You can't help but feel empathy as you learn of the Joker's past, even if you completely sided with Bruce Wayne/Batman in The Dark Knight. This will be one to see more than once to really capture all of the subtle nuances that make this movie great.
