The toxic carnage in his eyes rage at the spotlight of austerity to purge a failing system bubbling up a fanatical emptiness to the disenfranchised mob

Rating: 10/10 (7 October 2019)

No cgi just realistic life. Just saw it in the cinema on Sunday
They say there's no money to be made anymore with serious, gritty dramas.
They say that. But not this
But then they haven't seen Joker, the origin story of Batman's arch-enemy, co-written and directed by Todd Phillips
This is hidden masterpiece
Arthur Fleck is an oddball in a cruel, intolerant world that doesn't have time to care for vulnerable people.There is not a career adviser on the planet who would have pushed him in that direction.
He's a chap who wants to put a smile on people's faces, and so he becomes a clown-for-hire during the day and an amateur stand-up comic at night
He lives in a Gotham City that's gone to the dogs:no sun uncollected garbage bags pile up like stinking black skyscrapers, welfare budgets have been slashed, and mass civil unrest is one small trigger-point away In realism for flash point of seismic portions and with the keys to power and copycats on the lose
To cleanse and purge on the nervousness of greed of a power struggle in the core of society A lone voice to takes the mantle to imaginative spotlight of his mob as he rides the waves of an election of spiraling toxic fumes rising from the carnage in the streets to the subways he gives lawlessness a new name to the baying mob
This gives a mega boast in grittness creepiness the joker has connections issues falling between the cracks of austerity in Gotham his grubbness in his makeup as his art of choice giving his deception like Inspiring his vendetta for life life and he is failing at everything because he hasn't a talent that descends to madness as mother's stories bring vengeance her love and his for her in is a downside there run down building and many fantasies of his neighbours and with hatred for the elite. his laughing illness that is creppy uncontrolled leads to situations that causes his bleakness in human society that in "to cleanse, purge in away spirals into unimaginable events
So when lives are taken it makes the city tense looking to a void for some cult to follow he becomes their clown Prince his cult action of arising from hellish torment
all over a character no human soul just feeding rich people's lies of being family and mistrust of and using his
His only pleasure comes from watching Murray Franklin's chat show, on to which he dreams of being invited one day. Robert De Niro plays the legendary TV host,
Phoenix plays Arthur's tragic descent in a way which seemingly encourages our empathy but makes sure he never really gets it: so on the package this is the health warning we know he's not a character to whom you'd dont want to get too close. He will give you smile of approval his death sentence
, who plays a role in setting Joker down the path that turns him into the sociopathic clown
So the joker is up for 11 Oscar including best actor and best picture. He is deserves best actor for his portrayed of demented soul
Joachim grips the hellish torment of a tormented soul and gives a classic portrayal of angst his character dillusions delve deep into the void and this film is taxi driver
Instead you have Joaquin Phoenix uses his weird charisma giving Daniel Day-Lewis esque performance of such intensity and weirdness, it will either have the Academy clowning the prizes in for realism
There is a maniacal emptiness behind his eyes which is a bit creepy.
The sun never shines in this Gotham City.
Class war simmers while the media crank up the tension with inflammatory headlines and irresponsible TV shows that give airtime to the wrong people for the wrong reasons. The elite live in a pampered bubble without a care in the world, wilfully ignorant of the hardships other folk suffer. It might be set in the early 1980s, but it is clearly a parable about the here and now.
mythology, but has now been bolstered in Joker by an unflinching deep dive into his origins. Pulling back the curtain on the Joker was a risk, but it's one that pays off hugely here as Phoenix's portrayal of the character, who has been played many ways by many actors to varying degrees of success, is unique and if anything, more terrifying, as this story is so grounded in a quasi-reality and the most real-worldly Gotham we've seen. If you haven't got a phobia of clowns you will after this creepy but stunning movie of the year.
Joker is infamous classic one for the ages. 10/10
