Holy smokes! This is, without exaggeration, Oscar worthy! The story and plot are so well written and told, and the acting so believable that I was absolutely immersed all throughout those two hours! A solid 10/10 without hesitation!

One of the best, if not the best movie I have ever seen.
I would argue, that it even improves upon the origin story of Batman.
I hope for a decent sequel.

I'd like to think that this is one of the many origin stories that are inside his head. The movie itself was amazingly shot. Each scene is very colorful or chaotically dull, representing Arthur's mental state. At first, you really feel for him. But then he gets more and more deranged, and you can't tell what's reality and what's fantasy that's in his head anymore.

I am kinda glad that there some humorous scenes here and there. Most horror movies in the past made monsters and killers goofier as the series went, ruining the experience. Not this movie though. The comedy in this movie feels really natural, which is weird because you just saw Arthur's craziness few scenes ago.

For me, this movie was a low-key psychological horror. There were many scenes that made me uncomfortable and made me question if we as a society are doing the same to some unfortunate soul.

10/10, would go see again

Don't let the critics scores influence you, the media wants this movie grounded, they're trying to kill its reputation.

But in reality, Joker is a masterpiece, an acting masterclass, beautifully written and directed drama.

It's not an action film, nor a superhero and it's only better in my opinion. Superb cinematography, the shots are powerful. The soundtrack is excellent and subtle, it is not intrusive.
We follow the protagonist Arthur Fleck suffering from neurological problems and depression. He slowly slips into violence. The story is told by adopting his vision of things (This does not mean that those events occurred in this way... Look at the clues). The scenario relies on the spectator's ability to interpret the scenes, not everything is verbalized. In the theater, I heard someone say: "I don't understand... ».
In addition, the film asks the question what is our role in the appearance of this type of individual. He also takes a critical look at social classes.
Joaquin Pheonix deserves an Oscar for his performance. Best movie I've seen since Blade Runner 2049. I'm going to get it on Blu-Ray, because it deserves to be revisited. 10/10. (It's also less violent than the Deadpool movies. The difference here is that violence is presented with seriousness.)

Joker est un film de répertoire, sobre et très inspiré des œuvres de Martin Scorsese. Ce n’est pas un film d’action, ni de super héros et il en est que meilleur selon moi. Superbe cinématographie, les plans sont puissants. La trame sonore est excellente et subtile, elle n’est pas envahissante.
Nous suivons le protagoniste Arthur Fleck souffrant de problèmes neurologiques et de dépression. Il glisse tranquillement vers la violence. L’histoire est racontée en adoptant sa vision des choses (Ça ne veut pas dire que les événements se sont produits de cette façon… Observez les indices). Le scénario compte sur la capacité du spectateur à interpréter les scènes, on ne verbalise pas tout. Dans la salle, j’ai entendu une personne dire : « Je ne comprends pas... ».
De plus, le film pose la question quel est notre rôle dans l’apparition de ce type individu. Il porte également un regard critique sur les classes sociales.
Joaquin Pheonix mérite un Oscar pour sa performance. Le meilleur film que j’ai vu depuis Blade Runner 2049. Je vais me le procurer en Blu-Ray, car il mérite d’être revisité. 10/10. (C'est aussi moins violent que Deadpool... La différence est que la violence est présentée avec sérieux.)

ItA rare A+ from me. SPOILER-FREE PART: This movie did not waste a single shot, not a single line, not a single movement, from the very beginning shot to the very last shot... so much that I refused to leave my seat to use the restroom. It reminded me of late '70s Scorcese with a hint of Nolan and a dash of Aronofsky without being derivative. Best character study on film, in my opinion. Possibly the best origin story (though Deadpool is so much fun). Joaquin does the impossible task of matching (if not surpassing) Ledger in creating a compelling, one-of-a-kind, surprising portrayal. I couldn't find fault with anything. Manages to be inventive, yet it pays mad fan service. *******BORDERLINE SPOILERS: Unpredictable, with a twist (or is it? wait it is? no, no, I was wrong... maybe...). Makes you not only feel sorry for Arthur, but it makes you care about him... and then you have to wonder at what point you will not like him (which reminds me of Walter White's journey). Expand

Extremely political, the story contained in this movie is so real and tangible that critics are afraid of it, what were they expecting? Joker is on the title. And, indeed, it totally makes you feel like Joker. Expand

Inspite of Todd Phillips's confirmation that Joaquin's joker won't meet Pattinson's Batman, I believe Todd and Joaquin,Both should reconsider their decision to unleash full potential performance against Robert's batman. Because joker needs batman in order to show his full potential. This movie is "the raise of the joker." Expand

I saw Joker last night at the Studio Movie Grill in Marietta, GA. There were two police officers on hand, but it was a very calm and peaceful evening. The theater was completely full and there were a lot of people who clapped and even criedI saw Joker last night at the Studio Movie Grill in Marietta, GA. There were two police officers on hand, but it was a very calm and peaceful evening. The theater was completely full and there were a lot of people who clapped and even cried during the movie. However, not once did I ever fear for my safety or my life. Never once did I feel or sense there was going to be anarchy, chaos, or a riot after the movie. IT WAS JUST A MOVIE. Just like any other action movie with guns, violence, and killing in it (F&F, John Wick, etc., etc.). All in all, I thought 2019's Joker was a great movie is a masterpiece with an oscar-worthy performance by Joaquin Pheonix. It was a very human movie. It show's a man who's been broken down, beaten, lied to, and mistreated his whole life. A man who feels isolated, alone, unwanted, and unloved in a system and society completely against him. Because of the way the film is portrayed and because of the incredible talent of Joaquin Phoenix, you can empathize and sympathize with his character. You feel sorry for him and all of the incredibly unjust bs he goes through. You may even find yourself wishing you could help him. Because of that, you can understand his descent into madness and the reason behind all of his characters' actions (not that they were wholly just or correct by any means). It gave depth and insight into the Joker's and Batman's (Bruce Wayne's) relationship and their history as a prequel movie. The ONLY things I can think of why certain groups of people might be against this movie are: 1) They don't like DC Comics or Batman. 2) They don't like Joaquin Phoenix as an actor. 3) They're afraid that the movie will empower self-righteous people who are fed-up with a corrupt government into taking action and causing Anarchy (like in the movie). 4) They think that grown adults don't have any common sense and/or general reasoning skills, can't distinguish between reality and fiction, and cannot control their own thoughts and actions. All-in-all, I thought this was a wonderful adaptation and I would highly recommend this film to all my family and friends. 10/10. Expand

Which will lead us into a society of class division where the high class, good image, good deeds But instead leaving the lower level alone I think the director is very smart to pick this issue up in the movie.

The cello sound plays during certain parts of the movie. Cause incredible goose bumps, the other is that the movie did not dive or dark to that much. But on the other hand, it makes people feel more compassionate and understand people who are sick. (But for those who have a lot of Down Arms, I don't recommend you to watch it anyway) As for anyone who thinks that this is a hero movie with action fighting roles, you can skip it right away. Because in this matter there is no This is one of the bile drama movies that made out to be excellent. The equation is very much awaited. Nothing to complain about 10/10

It does this so well, that I genuinely felt disturbed watching it. Many of the scenes get real, and you might find yourself seeing people you know, or even yourself, in the Joker. I walked out of the theater just flat out uncomfortable, and a bit depressed. I recommend this movie to anyone looking to explore the things that can make one so miraculously cynical.

For some men, climbing the gray ladder of social success is not easy ... for those who are repeatedly trampled, marginalized and humiliated by a selfish society it is easier to go down that ladder by dancing, sinking into the abyss, coloring and merging their life with madness. Because in that madness, perhaps, there is the only possibility of a revenge .. Masterpiece! Expand

The brilliant performance by Joaquin Phoenix is just the tip of the iceberg that seems to draw people's attention. But the further combination of directing, screenplay, music, all set the stage for something that is quite unsettling.

"Joker" is a film you need to go into without any spoilers or specific expectations of what the movie should be. Let the movie play out and be what it is, take in the experience. I personally gave the movie a perfect score based on my"Joker" is a film you need to go into without any spoilers or specific expectations of what the movie should be. Let the movie play out and be what it is, take in the experience. I personally gave the movie a perfect score based on my appreciation of Joker's inspiration from older films such as "Taxi Driver" and "A Clockwork Orange". This is not an action packed comic film or follow a typical "comic-movie" formula (which is something I loved about it). It's character driven and artistic. If Joaquin Phoenix is not my new favorite Joker, then he's a damn close 2nd to Heath Ledger. Expand

Joker is a film that grabs you and never lets go. Phoenix should win easily with his creepy and mesmerizing portrayal of the disturbed Joker, from which all other Jokers before and after— will be judged against. Hard to believe thisJoker is a film that grabs you and never lets go. Phoenix should win easily with his creepy and mesmerizing portrayal of the disturbed Joker, from which all other Jokers before and after— will be judged against. Hard to believe this incredible film was directed by the same director of the Hangover! But Philips has not trouble sinking his teeth into this dark and distributing subject matter that will have you thinking and talking about it, long after the final scene.

It's too bad film critics cannot separate their own political views from honestly reviewing the film on its own merits. I understood film critics were supposed to be professional. Over the years I have seen that they as a community that is more a group of individuals who can be bought, swayed and do not always give their true opinion regarding the films they review. So now i tend to turn to the audience, like Cinemascore and fans ratings, rather than film critics. They are losing their value and worth. Much like award ceremonies today.

The critical average on this website does not accurately reflect the quality of Joker--it is an outstanding film. But don't take my word for it, just look at the user score, and then, once you're ready, go see this movie.

Then I saw that most of the critics were giving it reviews based on political theology. I said the Joker is an amazing movie. People that haven't seen it yet should be reminded that its more "Taxi Driver" and "American Psycho" and less "Batman" and "The Dark Knight". It's not a comic book movie, there's more drama than action. No big explosions or battle scenes. There is violence, goring violence, some scenes that made me feel uncomfortable but in a good way. Not like oh this is cringe, just uncomfortable from the tension. Todd Phillips made a really good film, and Joaquin Phoenix should definitely be nominated for best actor. watching him transform into the Joker. You don't empathize at all. I think Phillips did a good job not just blaming mental illness, but blaming the lack of love and support people with mental illness need and can easily lack. Expand

The critics are a joke. The generic bandwagon needs to stop. This film is living proof that sometimes it works to not follow the trends, to not copy what the last person said, or act the internet emotions society has installed.
This film was phenomenal. It strayed so far from what we have grown to know with comic book movies, or even movies in general. There was no hunt for the excitement. It did not project a biased, generic slogan of enjoyment to the viewer in a desperate attempt to fulfil the fix they desire. It just played and you were in it. It was just simply engulfing, excellent writing, excellent acting, incredible cinematography, music, everything. I could continue, but sometimes less is more. What I will say is that this has my hopes up for a new wave of comic book movies. DC need to ditch the train they’re on and straight up make all the new films as ultra realistic, dark grit as this. I would convert. Bring a sequel that introduces Harley Quinn and the new batman and I’m sold.

I seriously hope journalists get massively fired to experience what poverty is like and why this isn't just another cliched movie but a masterpiece.

All these hypocrites saying they walked out or were offended, yet will happily sit through John Wicke, the equaliser, IT, and enjoy the gratuitous violence. This film shows why violence is a bad thing, and why it is such an evil thing to bully a vulnerable person and treat them with contempt for simply existing. I believe why people are getting so offended is because the film brings home a number of issues currently affecting today’s society. The truth hurts. It offers realism and an insight into the minds of some of our peers who are suffering from mental health issues and have lost their way. Phoenix's portrayal is truly masterful, he deserves acclaim for his performance. The story is moving, dark and emotional. The film is not that gory at all, I have seen much worse. Don’t listen to the weak minded who are scared of this film. It is absolutely worth a watch and will go down in history as one of the best films of all time. The controversy is unfounded and pathetic. People of today can not cope with being shown reality. This film turns the joker into a human being, and for that it should be commended and all involved should be very proud. Expand

The Joker character alone is a legend of a villain with his twisted, cold mind and legacy. And the movie really convinces you he's the good guy before he breaks and goes deeper on madness. As the good guy, you expect the moment he overcomes everything, but the movie will hit you with its shocking moments to remind you that this is not the case, that Joker is a villain, but not over nothing.
When you watch Pirates of the Caribbean, you see captain Jack Sparrow rather than Johnny Depp. When you watch this movie, you see the Joker, as it's impossible to see Joaquin Phoenix, because it was an outstanding performance.
It easily is the most remarkable movie of the year, and will (probably) make you feel bad at the end of it. Put it simple, it's a masterpiece, a fine work of art.

This character was portrait-ed multidimensional by Phoenix! It was about time to expose today's society. This movie will shock you in a way, make you sad and at the end it will make you happy with the Batman connection and the comic and gaming scene! The whole movie was a masterpiece and can lead to many awesome sequels with Batman, Harley Quin etc... They just need to be careful. An Oscar performance with a small budget! Good job DC. Expand
