This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The ambiguity of this disturbingly uncomfortable film is its genius, and likely why the critics are so divided. This is a film devoid of morality, and social commentary despite being at its core a morality play. In all things the viewer is left to draw their own conclusions, interpret what was real or fantasy and ultimately fill in the blanks with their own beliefs.
Joker touches on many issues and treats them with all the disdain that the main character exhibits: mental health services, gun control, workplace bullying, class divides, exploitative reality tv, anarchism, abuse of power, and sexual rejection are showcased, but each simultaneously argued from both sides in a quantum superposition of cinematography.

This is a film with dichotomy as its only key theme.

One of Joker’s most controversial scenes is the apartment invasion by Fleck on his neighbour and fantasy love interest Sophie, and the resolution is left entirely ambiguous. At the completion of the film like Schrodinger’s cat she remains simultaneously; alive and unharmed by her close encounter with a confused yet sympathetic mentally ill neighbour, and violated and possibly murdered in cold blood by an incel like maniac. How you choose to interpret this scene (and interpret you must) to complete the viewing will radically colour your opinion of Fleck’s actions and alter your final judgment of his actions.

The possession and use of firearms is given a similar treatment by Joker, on one hand a dangerously unstable and disbarred man is given an unlicensed gun for ‘protection’ by a ‘concerned’ colleague, and it does end up saving Fleck’s life. On the face of it this illegal possession of a firearm is morally justified, however he uses it gratuitously, chasing and murdering a fleeing assailant and eventually as his descent continues even murdering innocents in a manner even the most debased are likely to find unpalatable.

The ambiguities continue in the treatment of the rich and powerful as personified by Thomas Wayne an abusive, cheating millionaire using his power to exploit a vulnerable employee, deny his child aid, and run a cynical political campaign for personal gain. Or perhaps he is a fair man unjustly persecuted by a delusional former employee, with high morale standards and an agenda to fight corruption and bring social reform to Gotham. Joker goes out of its way to ensure that you can never truly know which permutation of these traits is real, and leaves the viewer as sole arbiter of their personal truth

The film piles these ambiguities decadently and aggressively, and at face value without subtlety, however I feel that the smartest aspect of the film is the careful balance and layering of these competing value judgements in a manner that seems to have confounded the critics. I have read many reviews decrying the lack of political and morale stance from the filmmakers, but I truly believe that this was a deliberate attempt by the creators to make a movie where the viewer is free to construct their own morale narrative.

The main character Arthur Fleck brilliantly portrayed by Joaquin Phoenix treats life with disdain, chain smoking his way through a miserable existence and deteriorating mental state with a slowly building anger and latterly a sense of empowerment through violence. Despite this he provides very little verbal exposition for his deeds allowing the viewer to project motive and ultimately judgement on his character.

The multitude of narrative and morale ambiguities in the movie mean that by the conclusion each viewer has experienced their own personal Joker who largely reflects their own experience and worldview in a manner that few other stories have achieved. There exist infinitely as many Jokers as viewers, and fittingly this idea is visualised in the film with the proliferation of clowns as the film progresses.

I believe that this is truly groundbreaking storytelling combined with exemplary cinematography and that Joker will stand the test of time.… Expand

As a society we know there's a problem but if it's not affecting us we look the other way and hope it goes away.
I have watched comic book movies in the past and not one of them made me feel the way I feel about this movie. Sure this is not your typical comic book movie (thank God) but it does portray a comic book villain in a way that it had never been done before. Phoenix left me wanting more. He is a genius at his craft and hopefully, we will s him portray this character again in the future.… Expand

Anyways , this movie was an amalgamation of emotions stirred up for a person I didn’t think I ever cared for , aside from being a badass in a previous portrayal by Heath. Let’s put this to rest right now ; Joaquin’s Joker was so real to the point that I connected on a more personal level (than previous jokers including heaths) and I can see authenticity in this joker being THE joker that eventually faces off with Bats - even in this “depressing” formative period of his .... despite being exposed to an action packed super intelligent Heath Joker years before this . The feeling of powerlessness and a world against you is really what gets you down through your first 40 minutes or so in the movie but it’s not a depressingly down feeling it’s more of a contemplatively-down feeling for Arthur’s condition and his situation in life . Essentially , it’s hard to NOT feel for Arthur as opposed to what previous movies would conjure up in us for the joker - which always painted him as a one sided villain as opposed to the complex more than human Joker we see in this film.

Overall the scenes were shot so well I felt like I was watching an old movie, which also helped complete the feeling of taxi driver (also that revolver Joker gets seems like a snubbed version of it), but also gave the setting of the film a perfect alibi - this WAS INDEED the time before Batman ; and we can tell from the scenery , the outfits and the props ... very well done.

I feel although there’s no promise of a sequel , the director and cast HAS to deliver a sequel - as the roller coaster ride of this journey has just begun and they really pulled the tempo of the film off correctly as to really entice us to be hungry for more screen time of Arthur In his very earliest joker years .

If I could , I would see this made into a tv series as it seems so realistic with the way it displayed this joker , and the action was spread out enough to create suspense and many other emotions . If this was done I would expect them to cast Joaquin , due to his great performance , or at least someone that can emulate his exact performance and demeanor - as this was a performance I didn’t expect to “attract” me so much as it did .

Great film , 10/10 for me - if it weren’t for the critics mindlessly bashing this title I wouldn’t have written this review , but I feel like this is something we need to speak up about because everyone seeing this film either really likes it or LOVES it - BESIDES the critics ... hmmm I wonder why ? Maybe it has something to do with the AGENDA of those that wish to push a specific NARRATIVE for their platform? Look that’s fine and all but please be a bit more transparent with your bias if you choose to run a review website . Compare the critics to the user reviews , how many of each one and you will see who the liars are and who is telling the truth about the movie . Everythings an “opinion” they will say after slanging dirt in an untruthful review ... ok that’s fine but don’t go bashing something that was shot , edited , directed , and written WELL and try to pretend like it’s just some unbiased opinion, we can see through that ! I, like thousands of others , went into the film UNBIASED and loved it , do the same and you will too ; go in there thinking the movie will have your incel neighbor boy kill you , you will leave there confused just to go on your critic profile on meta critic and bash for no reason and that will guarantee you have a bad time under the guise of social semantics .… Expand

I like the way the film made you think one way. It goes into the characters head. His mind set. How and what he sees to feels. The whole movie keeps you guessing. The best thing about it was the cigarette. Notice every scene with his cigarette. Every scene of the film that he has the cigarette he always has it lit. Never does the film show him start the fire/cigarette. It’s already in the characters hand or mouth and he’s already smoking it. Play close attention to this Joker because he’ll have you played through out the entire movie. The fact is the film never showed the character(Joker) start the cigarette because in the end he’s never smoking it. Well played. Great acting. Killer performance from Joaquin Phoenix.

I’ve had the opportunity to watch it twice now, which if you haven’t, you should. Todd Phillips did an outstanding job directing this film, to my surprise. I watched a video where he said that he had the musical composer read the screenplay and make the music based off of that alone. Phillips then made the scenes with the influence from the music, letting the acting and the tone to go with it as well. Genius. Don’t even get me started on Joaquin Phoenix’s performance. Phenomenal. He is so enticing and believable when he plays Arthur Fleck, from his walking/ mannerisms to the way he laughs. One big thing of previous actors who have portrayed the Joker is to have their own flavor when it comes the “Joker’s laugh”. Joaquin took a more natural and painful laugh with Arthur having Pseudo-bulbar Affect and not being able to control his laughter, even in awkward situations. The fact you can see the pain in his eyes even when he’s uncontrollably laughing just shows how outstanding of an actor Joaquin is. Even though Arthur gets most of the screen time in a movie about him (lol), all the other side characters still feel extremely real. One thing that I’ve come to appreciate a lot about this film and about Todd Phillips, is that it’s not afraid to make you uncomfortable. It makes you question if it’s alright to have sympathy for a psychopath. It shows what can happen when the government and others choose to ignore the mentally ill, and just think nothing of those that it affects. Overall an outstanding movie, I suggest anyone that hasn’t seen it in theaters yet to go watch it! I know I’ll go a few more times!… Expand

Massive character development. Toatal madness of joker is so sick. Can't take of your eye from the screen. The whole movie develops from the beginning ends with a twist.

Its a movie that the Joker is a human version of Gotham City. Phoenix is an amazing performance, like I havent seen in a lot of years. Its a movie that makes you think about what are we doing with all the social media controlling our life.

I cant believe how well done this movie was. The acting was impeccable and shows Joaquin at his best. They way everything connects with the overall theme of mental illness and society is incredible. Do not pass this one up.

Too dark? Isn't that why it's R rated? This is a movie about how a villain came to be, not some nice superhero saving a town. Joker is brutal and unflinching, doesn't care about your feelings, and ridiculously but beatifically dark andToo dark? Isn't that why it's R rated? This is a movie about how a villain came to be, not some nice superhero saving a town. Joker is brutal and unflinching, doesn't care about your feelings, and ridiculously but beatifically dark and gritty. Joaquin Phoenix really put his heart and soul into his role and I admire that. I wish I could watch it for the first time again because it was seriously brilliant.… Expand

'Joker' doesn't let you leave cinema without putting a smile on your face! (Or perhaps some of you will leave the theater with millions of possible theories for the ending)
As a Ledger's Joker fan, I'm now also a fan of Joaquin Phoenix's -'Joker' doesn't let you leave cinema without putting a smile on your face! (Or perhaps some of you will leave the theater with millions of possible theories for the ending)
As a Ledger's Joker fan, I'm now also a fan of Joaquin Phoenix's - because he is the Joker. They both are.
From his Oscar-worthy (and more) performance of this legendary character, to the cinematography, and dare I say, everything else - the movie is either a 110 out of 100, or nothing. It takes a person who understands what they're watching here to love this movie. This movie is everything to those who get it, and nothing to those, who don't want to try to understand it. I loved every single scene. It was extraordinary. It was brilliant. 'Joker' is a masterpiece you haven't seen yet.
It is a "dream come true" piece of art, something that will leave you wondering for hours, days, and if you're a movie-lover like me, decades. It is that captivating & magnificently beautiful!
Joker is the film of the decade, and I'm not alone who would say this.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Kacau gilanya! Kacau sintingnya! Kacau edannya! Jelas salah satu produk Warner Bros. terbaik tahun ini, bahkan dekade ini. “Joker” tegas, berani, provokatif, emosional, sekaligus mengerikan. Jika “Midsommar” sekadar mengganggu batin, “Joker” dengan nyata mengacaukan jiwa dan pikiran kalian ke tingkat di mana kalian menyadari turut delusional akibat sebuah film.

Kewarasan kalian akan dipertanyakan kala menghadapi untuk harus bersikap simpatik terhadap karakter ini sebagai dampak dari kesehatan mentalnya atau mempertanyakan tindak kejahatannya yang semakin tidak terkendali. Tapi itulah Joker, bernama asli Arthur Fleck, salah seorang karakter antagonis legenda dan fenomenal dari sebuah karya fiksi. Film ini menghantarkan kita cerita lahirnya kriminal tersebut menjadi psikopat nomor 1 di Gotham. Di balik kisah asal muasalnya, “Joker” menyimpan lebih banyak isu dari yang dibayangkan. Sampah menumpuk di mana-mana, aksi berujung ricuh mengisi jalanan, hingga elit politik dan media tidak tahu diri yang terus meninggi di tengah kalang kabut segala konflik ini. Menonton “Joker” yang penuh ironi seakan menyaksikan dengan miris cerminan kondisi negara kita saat ini. “Perasaanku saja atau di luar sana semakin menggila?” tanya Joker.

“Joker” memang berhasil menjadi sebuah tontonan kritik sosial yang provokatif. Namun, film ini punya isu lebih dari itu. “Joker” adalah sebuah drama-psikologis yang berdampak kuat pada kondisi mental personal seorang insan manusia, baik itu sang karakter maupun kita sebagai penonton.

Joaquin Phoenix dalam penampilannya yang terus memukau di setiap film akhirnya tiba di puncaknya dalam film ini. Upayanya untuk menurunkan berat badan drastis tidak sia-sia. Sebagai Arthur, Phoenix dalam postur-postur mengerikan memutar anggota badannya seolah tulang-tulangnya terbuat dari plastik. Dan bagian terbaik adalah ketika ia berada di bawah tata rias badut dan tertawa maniak yang cukup untuk membuat bulu badan kalian tegak. Ini namanya penampilan ikonik! Kenapa Oscar masih begitu lama? Phoenix butuh penghargaan itu sekarang juga!

Mau bagaimanapun, “Joker” tetap sebuah film yang diadaptasi dari karakter ‘villain’ Batman. Todd Phillips yang selain menjabat sebagai sutradara tapi juga salah satu penulis naskahnya melakukan segenap usaha untuk memasukkan Bruce Wayne alias Batman ke dalam film ini. Pada akhirnya, “Joker” memang sebuah prekuel kisah hidup Batman. Namun, kita semua tetap tahu bahwa “Joker” bukanlah film buku komik biasa. Ini adalah film dari komik yang menyakitkan dan realistis.

Phillips mengaitkan Arthur dengan Wayne dalam sejumlah narasi dan momen yang mengejutkan. Ditambah beberapa adegan brutal bersimbah darah dan iringan musik pengiring mencekam dari Hildur Guðnadóttir, semua itu membuat kita sedikit teralihkan — atau malah kian stres — dari alur “Joker” yang sudah lebih dari cukup membuat kepala berat.

Phillips yang dulunya menangani trilogi komedi-dewasa “The Hangover” sempat disangsikan untuk menggarap proyek ambisius ini. Namun setelah menyaksikan film ini, aku senang Phillips bisa mengaplikasikan keahliannya dengan baik dalam ‘humor’. Kita tahu bukan bahwa kehidupan itu perbedaan tipis antara komedi dan tragedi?

Arthur di awal adalah sosok yang periang. Masih ada pula beberapa orang yang setidaknya melingkupinya dengan energi positif. Seperti ibunya yang renta sakit-sakitan tapi sangat menyayangi Arthur. Atau tetangganya, Sophie Dumond (diperankan oleh Zazie Beetz yang sayang tidak mendapat jatah pendalaman karakter lebih) yang sedikit menaruh perhatian. Dan ketika semua hal telah mencapai batasnya dan pilihan moral Arthur berubah, tidak ada yang bisa menghentikannya sebagai Yang Mulia Pangeran Badut Kejahatan dalam 15 menit terakhir film yang luar biasa!… Expand
