(Portuguese & English Review) "Strongly shocking and artistic" / Fortemente chocante e artÃ­stico

Rating: 9/10 (15 October 2019)

"Joker is a criticism that ranges from the poorest class in society to the high rich brand. It shows violence as crudely as possible, making it more real, flirting without soundtrack to mild sadism. Arthur's cruel reality shapes a sense of psychological incapacity, making him susceptible to the violence he receives, whether for himself or for those around him. As much as Arthur's attitudes may be somewhat justifiable, he shows the viewer a sense of guilt in feeling empathy. It turns happiness and its most common way of expressing it into a sadness."
