Suitable for a wide (adult) audience

Rating: 8/10 (12 January 2020)

This was a very interesting take on how The Joker came into being, and the film painted a disturbing picture of how mental instability can be triggered by adverse events. Great acting from Joaquin Phoenix, who was in every scene. I enjoyed that the film needed no reliance on special effects, only the abilities of the performers and the director. It is, as promised, very violent and bloody so not for everyone, but I enjoyed it - and the nightmares which followed! Recommended.
