Awesome...I loved it...,,

Rating: 9/10 (16 October 2019)

Just a short review...But I loved this character study...Joaquin Phoenix is outstanding, it is dark...There is a real twist half way through to do with his mental state that pulls a real punch on the viewer... I don't think it was violent for the sake of violence to be honest, it really was just part of his story and I don't think was any where near as gratuitous as most action hero movies are... I was amazed at how you really felt for him...And I really did and the last scenes almost at fever underdog hero pitch...To the point you almost cheered with the others...But then the final scene left me feeling that NO he is just a twisted killer when the completely innocent as far as we could see,hospital staff member was killed...I actually felt that scene was purposefully added so cinema goers 'wouldn't ' leave thinking he was the next best thing..As up until that point he had only seemed to of killed those who had done him wrong in some way...But as I said my feelings of wow for this anti-hero were completely changed just in a few final moments with that what seemed senseless killing....I wonder who else felt the same... Was it because she represented another councillor who talked but actually never really listened to him..?. Anyway Amazing and Outstanding movie
