Average

Rating: 5/10 (6 October 2019)

The studio has done a marvelous job marketing this movie as only they know how but it doesn't do anything for the content which is really quite average. The script is very derivative and boring, hardly a funny joke in it which despite the dark tone would have done wonders for the movie. Performances are good but this movie is all hype. In the end we see Fleck flipping over into the dark side and become a mindless killer, but the irony is that the numerous depictions of the Joker in cartoons have more depth in the character than in this movie. Another average film made into a box office success by studio marketing wizardry.
