Knock knock...

Rating: 8/10 (21 October 2019)

Who's there? Well, it's Arthur Fleck not Joker. Was this a good film? Yes, it's very good. I just felt a bit disappointed that there (for me) wasn't enough Joker. He doesn't really appear until the last 20 minutes which is a shame because the film goes into overdrive and really has you wondering what is about to happen. There are some really good touches, a few unexpected scenes and a good but subtle twist which many will miss completely it's that small. Phoenix is as good as everyone says, De Niro is just adding star name to a film that doesn't need it. It's begging for a sequel where the joker is on the loose creating havoc but alas I doubt we'll see one from the people involved here.
