Problem - Storyline

Rating: 6/10 (10 February 2020)

I was looking forward to this. I admit my favourite Batman movies are the Bale led trilogy and the Heath Ledger Joker is a mad, dangerous and unpredictable ...genius. Here the Joker is a mad, dangerous and unpredictable... loser. No guile, no cunning, and none of the drive and purpose that saw him outfox enemies in every way. The Joker is superbly acted- Oscar winning - and in itself a fine film. It doesn't work though. He's a loser who accidentally gets street power again through the charity of others not through evil genius.
