While it is not for everyone, this was such an entertaining movie. Everybody is taking it so literally, but remember it is a comic book origin story not a biography.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Joker came out this weekend with mixed reviews, viewers seemed to (mostly) really enjoy it, while critics reviewed it poorly. I watched it Sunday night, and the theater was mostly empty. I for the most part enjoyed the film myself; with a huge exception. The characterization of the Joker was far from what I expected. Allow me to explain, and please, stick with me until the end. This article will contain some plot point spoilers, so be forewarned! If you have not yet seen the film (and I think that you should), please click away now and watch it first!
I’ll start with what I loved about Phoenix's Joker. His insanity was explained in a way that is believable, his delusions and his ‘condition’ help to shape and mold the character. That being said, I am a firm believer in never explaining the monster, when you do that it becomes less frightening. The way that the film explained it though (since it is an origin story).
The big issue that I took with the characterization is this: The Joker (eventually) will have battles of wits with The Batman, who is, for all intents and purposes, the greatest detective alive. Keeping this in mind, it is imperative that The Joker be equally as intelligent as, if not more than, Bruce Wayne. That is not The Joker that we meet in this film! It is as if the writers placed all the points into luck and none into intelligence! They painted the character as a bumbling fool, he never outsmarted the police, he never tricked the mayor, he just stumbled into a way out of each situation until the end of the film.
It feels like the writers did not understand the source material, or if they understood it, they simply did not care about it. There was no future proofing it. If they created in this Joker an idiot, there is no way that they can have that same Joker face Batman down the road. Like I said, I did enjoy the film mostly, I just took issue with the intelligence of (or lack of) the character.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The movie is so so excited, the story tells a facet of the joker. A story never counted in this universe.
The introduction of joker’s crazy way it’s very detailed and the new way that the story takes I talk about the relationship between Thomas Wayne and Joker in the film universe is very interesting.
The only thing I can say is that DC has a new opportunity in the market.
Good job, Congratulations

If you were expecting a "comic-book" origin story, you came to the wrong movie, but I walked in knowing that already when the first trailer was released. It's a conflicting film of one man's spiral into his own madness and feels too real at times. He doesn't become the joker until the end of the movie, it's more about Author's descent into becoming this character is what makes this an amazing film. It is unnerving, but that feeling is what a Joker movie should be in away. There are moments of the film that blur the line between reality and fantasy, that to me is another detail that screams who joker real is, with the only answer is multiple choice of who he is or was. If there was a Joker origin story that was true to the comics, it probably wouldn't be as impactful R rated or not. This movie will be discussed and analyzed in future youtube theory/philosophical vids much like the Nolan Trilogy has been studied. As a casual Batman and Joker fan, I enjoyed this film and knew what I was going to get from this and still feel puzzled at the end of what was true and was false. But that's up to you to decide.

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

Most importantly, identifying with the main character. Tension...great tension builds at multiple points as you keep hoping something will go right for this poor guy...but know it won't. Joker is anathema to the woke, (a white male turns against society not because of "toxic masculinity" or hatred of minorities/gays/women, but because those in society have abused and neglected him) but makes PERFECT sense to the rest of us. Joker has no political overtones, but does deal with some real world issues such as mental illness and the elite/lower class. 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 was expecting Joaquin Phoenix's performance to be the only good thing about the movie but I got a lot more. Saying that Joaquin Phoenix was wonderful in his role would be stating the obvious, because pretty much everyone has praised his performance and I agree, he is honestly the best actor of the year so far. Both his acting and the writing of his character is what gives Arthur Fleck/Joker a realism that we have never seen before in any other interpretation of the character. The movie really made me get inside the mind of the title character, to see that he is not just "a crazy person" but that he was a human like anyone else. His journey to become the iconic villain is genuinely interesting, and made me care about the character. That is why I think that the character development and acting are the best things about the movie. Robert De Niro was also pretty good. I thought that he would "phone it in", but he ended up doing a nice job. The cinematography was also pretty good. There is a little amount of visual storytelling(not too much and it isn't like arthouse film level or anything) and the movie looks aesthetically beautiful to be honest.

My issues with this movie are with the script. There were things that felt really cliché and unoriginal. Some of the social commentary is really on the nose and obvious, and when it is included in a conversation it feels more like lazy exposition and takes away from the realism intended. Soms of the plot twists were pretty obvious and the movie treats them as big reveals.
So yeah, some script decisions were really a problem, at least for me, but other than that, this movie was reaaaally good. The gritty realism of Gotham City is done so right, making this a worthy "spiritual successor" to Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy.

A atuação do Joaquim Phoenix é excelente. O filme consegue passar uma boa visão e empatia do icônico vilão do Batman. É difícil prever o que o protagonista irá fazer. A tensão no ar não diminui em nenhum momento.

Recomendo que vc vá assistir

An amazing adaptation and much needed thorough, engrossing look into the backstory of one of today's most iconic villains. Such a relevant piece that connects characters to the real world better than most.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. To try and compete with the high standard set by Ledger is an uphill struggle to say the least, but Phoenix's performance captivated me from start to finish. I love the continuity of the character. His portrayal of the character is dark and beautiful but still distinct from Ledger's. He has created his own mannerisms with the character. You can see the hard work he's put into this performance. From the look in his eyes, his stance around certain people. "The Joker" is undoubtebly a flawed person, but I've never sympathised with him before, or at least to the extent that I notice it. I find myself comparing our protagonist, Arthur, to Robert De Niro's character in Taxi Driver. You can see they're excluded from society, spat on, in a city that is rotten. One can sympathise with them at the start, but later on we see the cracks appear.

The film has beautiful moments that tie it all together too. For instance, I appreciate how the beginning and end mirror eachother, and that the character ends up parallel to who he was at the start.
It starts with a smile, and a psychiatrist,
and ends with a smile, and a psychiatrist.
Arthur at the start is trying to be happy in an oppressed and dysfunctional world.
Arthur at the end is happy his life means something and he's bringing opportunity for people to make themselves happier through revolution, with the wall of the class divide burning away in Gotham.

I also appreciate the use of theme in this film. From start to finish the film paints a sincere-feeling message about male mental health awareness and the problems that Social Exclusion can cause on vulnerable people- a theme which I feel should be at the forefront of society, but is so often shoved to the back in favour of other issues. The outrage from media outlets prior to release only purports this- practically encouraging a shooting in theatres so they can condemn the person who *they* gave the platform for atrocities to be committed through, via their constant publicity about it. Ironically, the film speaks directly to that, with the Late Night Show scene in the ending third of the film, martyrising Arthur as starting a revolution. The film isn't trying to advocate for murder of people, that's not the message one can take away from it. The real message I found was that vulnerable members of society should be treated. Arthur's character was neglected, beaten, "tied to a radiator with bruises on him," and yet he remained in the house with his mother, and turned into a social outcast. He gets all the sources of help cut off from him, so he is left isolated. This speaks to contemporary American society too, where medical and mental help costs, and often is only available to those who might not need it as much as a working class family may, seen as most mental health issues lie with the impoverished. This film says a lot without coming off as insincere as other comic book character films do. It doesn't cram a message down your face with a one liner, nor does it try and deprocate itself through "self-aware comedy" like every other Marvel film (hint hint "What Are Those!" and every line said to make the characters awkward after a big moment)

This feels like a true Tragedy. The art style of the film, the soundtrack with those harsh strings, vivid lighting in sections, and the overall design and portrayal of the character is in a world of its own. I thought nothing could top Ledger's performance, but honestly, Phoenix has me convinced.

Lotsa notes before we start this review,so keep scrolling,I think,in case you don’t care.
1. Terminator Dark Fate (for the brief seconds I saw while entering the IMAX Auditorium since there was a 5-Minute preview in front of Joker in IMAX) looks fookin’ spectacular. Such a shame Italy won’t release it in IMAX 3D…
2. This movie has a great friendship with A Quiet Place for “Dead Silent...Stone Cold Audience I’ve ever had at a Movie”
3. DC Black may be the studio I’m most looking forward out of all the other CBM Studios,but it’s no surprise given Warner Bros’ fantastic year (so far)...
End of notes.

The worst part of Joker may be the fact that I’ve seen all of this coming from the trailers. Guy gets slapped by Society,he starts to get mad,and so here we have an Odyssey of Madness that’ll turn him into the Clown Prince Of Crime,yadda yadda,we all know it by now. But,the thing that makes it stand amongst other character studies done by the numbers is the rather unnerving nature of the character we’re following (played by Joaquin Phoenix with mesmerizing attitude) and the fact that,for a Director last known for making Comedies,this feels like such a huge directorial shift (besides the kinda harsh comment he made on Recent Comedies). This may be the scariest IMAX Experience I’ve had since...I dunno...Mission Impossible Fallout? Which isn’t saying much,considering I’ve never seen a scary movie in IMAX.
What also fuels the movie up to 11 is the fact that this is my movie. A movie that says many things about the harsh and insulting society we’re living in right now (another movie like this is Taxi Driver,of which the movie takes inspiration from. No,seriously,there’s a sequence involving Arthur toying around with a gun that feels similar to Travis Bickle’s “you talking to me?”),which is better than great for me,as I despise the lots and lots of people that behave like they’re the most important being in existence,complete with self-indulgence and insults towards others. All spectacular stuff for this movie. But,while most of it feels earned,I don’t think it needs to fully embrace it,since there’s a minority about people who actually know what they’re doing and hope they can literally “rebuild the world” as it was. Yeah,I’m getting ahead of myself,but it’s something I really wanted to talk about in a long time,internet or not. And it feels unreal that I’m talking about it in a Comicbook Movie that shouldn’t work if done in other ways. But if it stopped itself from fully embracing the theme of Society,then we wouldn’t have gotten the big-ass epic finale it had,with a speech that,while feels forced by WB,didn’t bother me at all,especially with a worse gripe than the speech. That being the blatant and unnecessary Batman references. At first it was cute,but during the finale,it felt sort of rushed. Not for Thomas Wayne,since he was part of the plot,but for the sake of the studio trying to Franchise this up,therefore losing the soul the movie was aiming to have,and making it just “Another Comicbook romp”. Speaking of that,yeah,it stars a Comicbook character as the main lead,and the title is Joker,but should I even consider it a Comicbook Movie? Character aside,this feels more a Character-driven film rather than a CBM,and,while there are action sequences (and Violence) in it,it doesn’t matter all that much considering the Nature of the Story we’re being told,nor is it as insulting as the troll reviewers are talking about (there are positive reviews,no worries,but I hate making fun of these critics,since it ain’t my thing,and I know there will always be more of them in other movies). But all in all,I think Joker is my Iron Man. While I’ve seen most Comicbook Movies by this point,I never had one where it felt like a proper introduction to the Genre (besides Spider-Verse),and anticipating it as “The Rebirth Of Comicbook Fare” was definitely my thing. Sure,it wasn’t the greatest movie of all everyone was talking about,but that still didn’t stop me from being thoroughly surprised by it. The fact it doesn’t show the DC logo at the beginning is already a Plus.

Talk about douchebags throwing a turd sandwich into the punchbowl.

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.
