As good as I was hoping it would be

Rating: 10/10 (4 October 2019)

No spoilers here. I just got back from watching joker. I don't understand any of the negative reviews I read previously. This was superb. Phoenix is outstanding and rivals Ledgers Joker for me now (never thought I'd say that).
It's dark, very little humour and to begin with fairly slow but as it played out to its climax I was enthralled and wanted more as the titles rolled ( I'm sure this will set up further films in a new franchise with Phoenix the star)
I highly recommend this movie.
