But I didn't have the slightest thought that it is some way it is related to the Batmans. Arthur is as stand alone as you can get. And, to me, Phoenix's magnificent performance is as stand alone as you can get. Loved his dancing, which was enhanced by his self-made skin and bone Fred Astaire physique. The only thing that bothered me was Arthur's chain smoking. I don't think all that smoking had made any dramatic contribution to the movie, but it did give me the impression that the incessant smoking was a proxy tobacco industry advertisement. Maybe intended to encourage young vaping addicts to switch to the real thing. Expand

Clearly i knew i was going to enjoy joker since the first trailer show up because it was unique and different not another blockbuster supervillain movie where theres no deep meaning other than make bad cgi effect on screen and been a cash grab, no joker decided to go risky and show us what it would really mean to have someone like joker in our society how he would grow,evolve and react in our community when someone with mental illness is let to himself fly by your own and maybe only maybe survive the struggle of social life, i think a huge part of what make this movie so successful is that we can easly relate to his struggle as human being we struggle so much from the inside and outside with what we have to going true that we can easly being in his shoes,that movie is magistral,sensational and easly one of the best interpretation of a superhero comic book movie closest to our reality ever seen for everything already said about the movie on other positive review i think it fair to say that todd phillips achieve with his wonderful team what i would call a masterpiece.

It’s everything you’ve heard it would be and more. DC descended into a pit of bad movies in recent years, frantically searching for a balance between dark and gritty or laugh out loud comedies. So not only is it refreshing to see a successful, well-written, stripped back comic book movie but it’s also one of the darkest films I’ve seen in years and definitely pushes the comic book genre into new territory.

Arthur Fleck (Joaquin Phoenix) is a man who has been forgotten by society, neglected and living in poverty with his mother in Gotham. Working as a clown for hire and desperately trying to make it as a stand-up comedian. A character study very much grounded in reality. It may be too real or too dark for some viewers, watch the trailer if you’re in any doubt, it will give you just a taste of what’s in store if you decide to see Joker.

There was always going to be the problem of taking on an iconic character like the Joker on the big screen again. Anyone portraying that role can’t help but be stuck in the shadow of Heath Ledger’s performance. A performance so brilliant the Oscars decided it was deserving of a win. The abysmal Suicide Squad gave us a very different take on the Joker with Jared Leto. Hardly a memorable performance though in his defence he didn’t exactly get a fair shot as Suicide Squad appeared to be hacked to pieces in the editing room and stitched back together at random. That is the only logical conclusion I can draw from one of the worst comic book films I’ve ever seen. Joaquin Phoenix was an ideal casting choice for a Joker origin movie, it’s not an over the top CGI flashy film by any means. Phoenix is one of those few actors that puts everything into a role, you can see him disappear and transform into the Joker. It’s terrifyingly brilliant and I’ll be shocked if he doesn’t walk away with an Oscar for his portrayal as the Joker. He’s one of the only actors who could possibly match Heath Ledger’s standard. Just don’t ask me to choose a favourite because there’s no way I could do that.

Everything from Joaquin Phoenix’s onscreen presence to the chilling soundtrack sets out to unsettle you constantly. I was incredibly tense for this whole film and I know I’ll still be thinking about Joker for a long time afterwards. A deep look into the mind of a man pushed beyond his limits. Phoenix’s manic laugh alone is enough to send chills down your spine. Frightening, disturbing and at times it’s almost like a horror movie. It doesn’t matter what kind of comic book movie you prefer Joker is recommended for all you film fans.

Joaquin has delivered a performance that stands toe to toe with the likes of Jack Nicholson and Heath Ledger. This film feels extremely prescient in our time as many who are disaffected are shunned and treated like they're toxic by nature. The gulf between the critic score and user score speaks volumes about the kind of film this is. Just like Dave Chappelle's sticks and stones, this is another masterpiece that the critics fail to recognize. Expand

I thought (don't know why, honestly) this was going to be a progressive critique of today, trying to make us hate ourselves for our "privilege" or our attitudes, and how the rise of a madman is "our" fault somehow. Quite the contrary, it focuses on the Joker and how someone can take (and finish) the slow, safe and utterly dangerous descent into madness. Which is, as Ledger said, one little push away, but in order to be that way, it needs the guidance of someone who has walked the walk and been through every step.
I wanted to hate this movie. I hated it for moths, even before I knew how it was going to be. I was wrong. For the performances, the story, the screenplay, the photography, the symbolism, the score (the score!), the soundtrack (THE SOUNDTRACK!) and what it ultimately is: the story of the Joker, as it should, or at least could, be.

Back to the film. Scorsese would be proud, and the acting of Phoenix was mind-blowing through it all from the cringe moments to the sadness shown deep in the eyes of the character and during the manifestation of the Joker himself. Hats off to everyone who made this film happen.

There's little to comment negatively about this movie.
It's a well-made character study movie of someone suffering from mental issues caused by mental health and society alike. So don't expect an action-packed movie, but a slow "character growth" (more likely regress) movie, but one that is surprisingly well-paced most of the time to not get boring.

Joachim's performance is amazing, to a point in the movie where the character becomes more self-absorbed and confident and you can almost say it's a different actor playing the role. I've heard some calling his acting exaggerated, it's certally not, at least not in the majority of scenes. (the movie does a subtles, yet kinda smart trick where some scenes are from the main characters' POV and not the actual real POV of all the other characters; this is done with a subtle reveal near the climax of the movie)

It's a gritty depressing movie, but there are a lot darker, violent and depressing titles than this one, to a point I'm starting to believe American media has a serious problem by calling this movie controversial. There's nothing controversial about this one, the Joker is not glorified nor blamed, he is just shown as he is (as a good movie should do), the movie does not force a point of view letting the viewer draw a conclusion (as a good movie should do).

The directing and cinematography are very good. There are scenes that look so great visually and evoke a specific feeling very well. The soundtrack is spot on.

You definitely have to see this movie. But go in with patience, it's not a movie to digest when tired or bored.

Acabo de ver esta magnífica y espectacular obra de arte que puedo asegurar que es en definitiva la película del año.

Todo aquí cumple y supera ampliamente las expectativas, pero si esperan ver una película de acción y de superhéroes o algo convencional al respecto saldrán decepcionados.

Aquí es Joaquin Phoenix quien se lleva todos los elogios, ésta es SU PELÍCULA y posiblemente sea esta la actuación de su vida, es trabajada, elaborada, bien ejecutada, es demencial, creíble, atrapante y por sobre todas las cosas es sumamente perfecta y a el se le ve extremadamente cómodo tomando en cuenta el hecho de que está permanentemente expuesto a la cámara, en fin, me faltan palabras para elogiar a este hombre que todo lo hace bien, pero en esta ocasión se supera a si mismo con diferencia y si con esta película no gana el Oscar, sería una de las peores injusticias habidas y por haber.

Personalmente no pude evitar enamorarme literalmente de Phoenix y su desempeño como actor, supongo que mi locura interior se conectó con la suya, pero eso es un tema aparte.

Negativamente no tengo absolutamente nada que decir, quizás a los fans acérrimos del ya fallecido Heath Ledger les cueste lidiar con esto y abrir sus mentes, hay que seguir siempre hacia adelante y saber apreciar el trabajo de los demás.

En cuanto a lo positivo, ya está todo dicho.

Con respecto a la valoración que debo darle, me faltarían estrellas de al menos 10 películas.

A beautiful masterpiece highlighting the internal struggles all of us face as human beings (isolation, depression, failure) compounded with the devastating effects of living in a society.

The story of Arthur Fleck is not unlike your typical loner/outcast. He is a simple man with dreams and a good heart. However, dreams can't fall short and hearts can blacken. The people in Arthur's life are selfish, cruel, and humiliating to the point of corrupting Arthur into the anti-hero we know and love, Joker.

Joker's message isn't a political statement. It isn't meant to sound any alarms. It's the purest form of rebellion against the society that cast him down: chaos.

In this character-driven movie that takes its time and leaves you clutching at the edge of your seat, you will be absorbed in the waking nightmare of a desolate soul. The level of tension this movie brings is indescribable. It is a must see for anyone thrown into the thorny clutches of society, ready and willing to drag themselves out. Thank you Todd Phillips. Thank you.

Masterpiece movie of the decade to influence generations.
Joker is a Traumatizing psychological drama/thriller that puts the spotlight on a comic book villian called joker.
Though the movie is inspired by the comic world which is imaginary, the movie feels real and authentic. Unlike other comic book movies which are filled with CGI and animation, joker uses story over action.
The movie is about arthur fleck (joaquin phoenix), a middle aged, miserable, poor standup comedian who suffers from mental problems and lives with his old mother.
He lives in gotham city where the people are cruel, emotionless and awful. Arthur is lonely and helpless yet he tries to be a good human being by sending positive energy and trying to make the people laugh and smile but the others are so wicked, merciless, enraged and furious they don't even accept him and make him feel worse by bullying, beating and abandoning him. Imagine what happens when a victim of society runs out of patience and turns extremely evil. The atposphere of the film is quite dark and the pace of the movie is a little slow in the beginning but as we go forward in the story it goes faster and faster just like a roller coaster.
The music and soundtracks used in the movie are perfectly in place and completely related to the theme of movie.
The climacteric of the movie is joaquin phoenix's fabulous and oscar worthy acting , where he delivers the sense of the film in the best way possible.
Joker might be one of the darkest movies made in decades but definitely deserves to be watched with patience and attention because it's one of the few movies that besides giving audience entertainment it tries to make people think.

Joker is the mirror of what happens in real life and that's why people find it uncomfortable 10/10. Phoenix made me believe that the one with mental problems was him instead of joker. That guy deserves the golden statue

Great performance. Joaquin Phoenix is definitely one of those authentic actors who can burry themselves into the life of an intended character. In this movie, he gave life to Joker.

I recommend it, and it helps to evolve the superheroes subgenre.

Coming back to this film after being awakened, Joker is the antihero we need. He is incredibly broken, how he goes from clown with nothing to live for where society beats him at every corner, an outsider and on the verge of finding his placeComing back to this film after being awakened, Joker is the antihero we need. He is incredibly broken, how he goes from clown with nothing to live for where society beats him at every corner, an outsider and on the verge of finding his place in the world.

This film was ahead of it's time, and many would not get it unless they have been deprogrammed.

It's also plays on wrongthink... you almost feel as if everything wrong in your life can be solved by living through the Joker. Somebody says something stupid that you don't agree with? Laugh at them.

There hasn't been a successful villain/anti-hero film since Taxi Driver.

Further than that the film makes you feel for him and you begin to understand, that even psychopaths have their reasons. I think many bad Reviews from the press are made because of a Moral viewpoint, but i think this film doesnt want to be a film about moral. It's a character Sketch (or "Charakterstudie" as it's called in German) and it is less about judging people… it's about understanding them. That does not mean automatically that anarchy or bad beheavior is praised or excused. Expand

Joaquin Pheonix gives an incredibly horrific yet heart warming performance, bringing to life the characters dark side and human side so perfectly. You really understand his backstory and care for him even though the criminal actions he performs in the movie are not right. The movie ends so perfectly and almost acts as a satisfying prequel to the Dark Knight Trilogy (even though they have different actors). Everything else about the movie is also top notch; including the beautiful music and the visually stunning cinematography and set design. In my opinion, this is one of the best comic book films ever made. Expand

It was unreal... Joaquin Phoenix's performance was top notch. The scariest part of the movie was how much his actions made sense, and how you can't really fault the logic of the people who would consider the dude someone to follow.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is an Amazing movie, and Joaquin Phoenix does an amazing job as batmans most notorious villain. Instead of having one tragic accident turn a normal everyday guy into a villain... This movie instead shows a steady decline in an already surffering mental patient. From his relationship with his mom, her obsession with Thomas Wayne, a relationship with a neighbor girl, to his outlook on everyday life, and dreams of one day being a comedian , this movie really transcends the label "Superhero Movie" Expand

I sincerely believed that the Joker character died with the legend Heath Ledger. Every attempt at the Joker character since Heath's passing has been an epic failure time and time again. So, I had my bias and skepticism of this movieI sincerely believed that the Joker character died with the legend Heath Ledger. Every attempt at the Joker character since Heath's passing has been an epic failure time and time again. So, I had my bias and skepticism of this movie beforehand. Even after watching the trailers I was still pessimistic.

Well. I admit to my faults. I was very stupid to think irrationally about this movie prior to watching it. The Joker blew all of my expectations away. I watched it three times in theater, and four times so far after purchasing the movie on Amazon. To be honest, I am probably going to watch it again within the week.

In addition, the Joker shines light on how Hollywood has lost its way (just like Gotham :)). Contemporary movies lack all of the essentials of a good movie whereas the Joker capitalizes and delivers on those lost arts. The plot, settings, characters, theme, conflict all work so well off of each other - "perfectly balanced, as all things should be."

Lastly, I always believed that Joaquin Phoenix is a talented actor. After watching his role in Joker, I have a new found level of respect for the guy. Holy moly can he act. He deserves nothing but the best. And, we cannot forget about the man who made this possible, Todd Philips. His level of skill for movie production and quality is uncontested. Hats off good sir.

Joker is incredible. Even that is an understatement. Go watch it!

Everybody who goes to see this movie will probably walk away thinking the exact same thing and know what the message is. At this point I think it’s pretty obvious what everybody already knows and I’m just going to put in my five cents and that’s Joaquin Phoenix is amazing as Arthur Fleck/Joker and he definitely deserves an Oscar nomination for his role. He went all-in with this character showing the different stages in his life and making everybody feel bad for him. At certain points in the film, I felt really bad for the guy and wanted to help him out because nobody deserves to be treated that way. It also helps that he didn’t start out as wanting to become the Joker but society just helped turn him into him. Robert De Niro, who plays Murray Franklin, probably won’t get an Oscar nomination for supporting actor but he still did a standout job with his character. Another thing that stood out to me was the cinematography of the movie and how it helped show Arthur’s slow descent into madness and how he views the world. I feel like some people are waiting for me to hate on the pacing of this film and honestly, I had no problem with it at all. If the movie was any longer it would have felt like it was dragging on and any shorter and they would have rushed the Joker transformation. But with that in mind, this film is like most people have said already and that’s a character story. So, if you don’t want to watch a story about a man who’s driven to his breaking point and wants to see an action superhero then stay home and watch The Dark Knight. I love how the costume was different from any Joker suit we’ve seen before, though it’s hard to replicate without buying a store-bought costume. The music by Hildur Guonadottir was amazing. In the end, this movie is an amazing character story with an important message. Expand
