Utterly terrifying and deeply thrilling

Rating: 9/10 (10 October 2019)

I wasn't sure what to expect from this movie but thought, I need to see what the buzz around this controversial film is.
To put it simply - I'm not sure the film is for the faint of heart. It is two hours of deep, soul destroying pain. You watch a man become destroyed mentally and physically. It can be hard to watch at times but that's what drew me in even more. The depiction of mental health may not be portrayed 100% accurately but JP does a damn good job of acting it. Even after the first few scenes I found myself rooting for this 'bad guy'. By the end I was questioning why I was backing a violent mob and a crazy clown but hey, it gives new light on films like The Dark Knight which I now need to watch again.
