Joker plays the role as an antagonistic hero. You want to root for him, but his actions strongly disagree. This is not a feel good movie but a well done and thought provoking movie. Recommended to the right audience who can handle (strong bloody violent scenes with disturbing behavior) and appreciate it (great acting, cinematography, and a well done soundtrack). Expand

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

ThisThis movie was magnificent, terrifying, and seriously disturbing. I might be riding on a wave because I just saw it, but it's definitely my favorite portrayal of Joker (and I still adore Heath Ledger's performance in The Dark Knight). This isn't a superhero movie; it's the story of how someone who is already mentally unstable can lose their **** mind and descend into absolute madness, unintentionally inspiring a whole subsection of the population that is likewise susceptible. You're supposed to feel empathy for him, but no one should worship a madman. I do not recommend this movie to everyone because it's very hard to handle, and that's probably why I loved it so much.

Joker es una película 10/10, y aunque me decepcione el puntaje dado por esta misma página (metacritic) no significa que sea mala película, solo con ver que a la audiencia o los "users" la califiquen con más de un 9 y aunque se merece más que eso, ya da a entender lo que está obra de arte transmite al verdadero público al que fue dirigido esta película. Un joker que de estar tomado de la mano de Heath Ledger, se ha visto complementado de una manera magistral por Joaquín Phoenix. Expand

Español: No puedo decir que sea la mejor película en su genero, esta claro decir, pero el papel de Joker había quedado vacío desde la muerte de Ledger. Es aquí donde Joaquin Phoenix, hace de nuevo vibrar nuestros sentidos al interpretar a un personaje icónico de la franquicia de BATMAN. Sin embargo su protagonismo nos hace sentir con el personaje ante la falta de empatia de la sociedad hacía las clases mas marginadas. En este caso, el giro de la trama sobre las diferencias que crecen día con día entre las clases sociales. Sin mas, es muy recomendable y sin duda formara parte junto con otros títulos, en las películas mas aclamadas de la historia. Expand

He's slowly getting fed up with his miserable life while the "rich" have a great life and nothing to worry about. He's sick that no one cares about people like him which is why he's slowly turning into a psychopath/agent of chaos. But still, the fact that this man is tried his best to make everyone around happy even children at the hospital, while he himself is a sad being and overall a broken man - is truly powerful and something to admire.

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.

Violento, perigoso e louco esse é o resumo desse filme do coringa que é um filme fantastico, não fica cansativo em nenhum momento, a forma como ele sofre faz você sentir pena e quase torcer por ele

The darkness and realness in this makes Lars von Trier's looks like a kid's movie director.

Only complaint is 8 shots are fired from a 6 cylinder revolver. Great movie making you feel uneasy the whole way.

Really good and realistic. If Phoenix doesn't win the Oscar, we'll have solid proof that the Oscars are rigid.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ha sido una de las películas más esperadas y mejores comentarios ha recibido en esta temporada, muchos llegan a decir que es un obra maestra y pues si está película es muy cruda y pues muchas personas debieron identificarse con con la forma que (Arthur), se convirtió en el Joker, de una payaso no malo, pero que le iba mal y que poco a poco fue perdiendo la razón , una persona que consumía las medicamentos para el comportamiento, y cuando dejó de ser amable de desató toda una mente criminal, los asesinatos son crudos y fuertes algo que los espectadores, el detalles más jugoso fue cuando aparece Batman de niño y como un delincuente con máscara de payaso les dispara, la interpretación lograda del Guason es diferente a todo antes visto es un personaje rehumano, con el que una persona se puede identificar. 5 puntos bien merecidos Expand

The film is a masterpiece! I could rant for hours about how much I love this film but instead I urge you to go and see this film for yourself, make up your own mind and don’t base your opinion off of what critics say.

Before I touch upon the content of the movie , I have to say the vibe it creates is like a Taxi Driver of the modern age with super villain in the making overtones ; which is funny because Deniro is in the joker , I wonder if the director didBefore I touch upon the content of the movie , I have to say the vibe it creates is like a Taxi Driver of the modern age with super villain in the making overtones ; which is funny because Deniro is in the joker , I wonder if the director did this purposefully ? 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 .

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.

My wife and I saw this and were mesmerized for the entire movie. I saw only one mistake in the movie and it was minor. This is absolutely an incredible origin story and I honestly think the "professional" critics (many of which only write for blogs) can't seperate their personal biases from their critique of this movie. Go see this movie. Expand

Ignore the pointless critics - they're getting more and more detached from reality and audience opinion. This is a must see.

The Joker's pain is brought to life by Phoenix in a way that makes you feel sad and sickened with guilt because it captures the realities of the mental health spectrum. 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.
