This is going to be one of those posts where I go against the mainstream but my reaction when I watched this movie was: You got to be f… kidding me?

The only resemblance to the REAL joker in this movie is the name. As far as I am concerned this movie is an insult to the fans of Batman and the REAL Joker.

The “Joker” in this move is a unintelligent deranged nutcase. There is a sob story in the background about how he became that way which is totally uninteresting.

The REAL joker is a intelligent criminal mastermind. I was waiting for this nutcase to actually become that for the entire movie. Spoiler alert, it never happened! This guy starts as a useless sobbing nutcase and he ends the movie as the same useless sobbing nutcase.

The movie has NOTHING to do with the real Joker. It is a blatant attempt to garner support for a unrelated psychopathic thriller by using the Joker name. If it would have been advertised as such I probably would have, if not liked it, so at least appreciated it for it’s qualities. It is indeed a well done movie technically and the main character is indeed excellently performed.

However, even if I try to distance myself from the deceitful Joker label, I find it overall boring, too long and really a movie about a psychopath probably made by someone with mental issues himself. But then that’s Hollywood today.

That the politically biased and elitist so called “critics” on sites like Rotten Tomatoes like it is not really surprising but I have to confess that I am somewhat surprised at the rave ratings by real viewers on some other sites.

Honestly, I was expecting to be disappointing by this movie. Then I am always cautious about movies getting rave reviews, especially from the previously mentioned totally useless and crappy “review” site. I did not expect this level of disappointment though. Epic fail as far as I am concerned.

hard carried by lead actors acting. we need an advanced ai that can replace any actor with a different one who has various different possible interpretations of the character, while keeping all else the same, then we would see really if the movie is good or an actor hard carried film. this btw might sound crazy but its much closer than you think, i'd give it at most 20 years till this ai is real.

The development of Joaquin Phoenix's protagonist, story and acting is undoubtedly a strong positive point, but it doesn't save the film, because, even with good reason, the story is slow, tiresome and tedious, causing the viewer to disconnect.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Admittedly great acting by JP... but I don't need a 2 hour movie to continually remind me he can play a crazy guy and lost a bunch of weight for the role. His impressive skills are diluted by repetition, the movie just alternates between socially awkward scenes and shots of him shirtless so we can see his ribs.

The movie and story is extremely boring. The other characters in the movie could be replaced by cardboard cutouts, as they add nothing to the experience; the 'Fight Club girlfriend' was uninspired and a let down.

There aren't many movies that I wish I hadn't gone to see, and this is one of them.

But honestly, I just can't do it. My wife and I have sat down 3 times now trying to get through this movie and we just can't do it. It's a slog that never really caught our attention. Maybe it's because it featured the Joker and we were expecting a certain type of movie, that this is clearly not. Or maybe it's because the story itself just wasn't terribly engaging. I can see why Phoenix received awards, his acting was stellar. But the movie itself... it's a stinker. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Let me start by saying that Joaquin Phoenix did an amazing job at portraying an unnerving malnourished mess. The movie even did a terrific job at transporting us to 1970s crumbling Gotham city gripped in turmoil.

However, the movie failed to portray any resemblance of Joker and seemingly attempted to justify his extremist violent behavior.

If any resemblance of the real joker were in this movie it would have been something fairly small that would have caused him to crack or perhaps he would have started killing just for the hell of it. The monster that is joker would've seeded protests, manipulated the police against the protesters, and ultimately incited chaos in some genius orchestration just to counterbalance justice...

That's not Arthur. Arthur seems to be a character on the surface that might have been plucked from Clockwork Orange, Falling Down, or Taxi Driver... but he's actually something new. you see none of those potential inspirations repeatedly make a defense or justification for the characters decent. The movie repeatedly attempts (unsuccessfully) to garner sympathy for Arthur. first off it's not his fault as he is mentally I'll die to a brain injury he sustained as an abused child. he's next repeatedly bullied throughout the movie. the state then cuts off his medical supplies due to budget cuts. he becomes delusional off his meds and starts to fall deeper through the cracks whilst accidentally inspiring class warfare that parallels the occupy movement in its adoption of a symbolic mask and anger against wealth inequality. He finally becomes "the joker" giving a speech about how general society never thinks about what the bad guy might be going through (please don't try to make me feel for the criminally insane) and how society failed him and he was only brought on the show to be bullied. he then shoots the host and the protesters turn to violent rioters.

in short the cold calculating jokers have all been replaced by a fumbling mentally ill sad victim. the movie seems to attempt justification for violent incels while villainizing the disgruntled lower class. for a hero movie it had some warped political narratives embedded.

As I said though... Phoenix was amazing.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The ‘Joker’ is a disturbing movie. The storyline is easy to understand but there where a lot of inappropriate jokes. These jokes where for example: he just killed someone and he tells the other person that he’s a good guy and he will not get killed. Which made everything weird about the movie, also because people really thought it was funny. I think that it brings the wrong ideas to solve that problem (the rich stay rich, the poor stay poor).
The actors and visuals are really good. That made it seems very realistic and also grose because when he killed someone I couldn’t watch it. It’s very uncomfortable to watch and afterwards the feeling haunted me. It wasn’t like an horror movie that you’re scared and people also pass away, it was just very different than that. It gave a weird feeling because there are people at the moment that think like him, which is kind of scary. I do not recommend to watch it. If you do wanna watch it, I would wait until it airs on tv, that way you don’t spend your money on it.

It’s not it’s damaging and not like any people I’ve come across. The vast majority of people who have been hurt in childhood and suffered trauma do not hurt anyone. The only person they hurt are themselves because they struggle to deal with the trauma they have and they are often not getting the support they need. To suggest trauma means you can go crazy and commit horrific crimes is rare and unfair to people with mental health issues. The film is also boring. Expand

Non, le Joker, c'est Nicholson dans Batman : frappadingue, taré, excentrique, drôle, cinglé, très dangereux et le genre de type qui a du charisme à revendre dans sa folie psychotique...

Ce n'est pas cette larve qu'on constate et voit et méprise dans ce pseudo-film psychodramatique qui se regarde le nombril à dormir debout pendant deux heures ! non seulement, c'est chiant mais c'est surtout carrément insultant pour l'un des meilleurs méchants de la culture populaire.

If you are looking at this film as an extreme warning against ignoring the struggles of everyday life and of ignoring struggles of people with mental disabilities then congratulations.

As a film, as a piece of art meant to entertain, this was a joke. Pun completely intended.

The joker some how manages to be as boring as a movie as it is twisted. Even the darkest parts of the film fall flat because of its sedated pace. Even if you are trying to make a statement, your film still has to be good. You don’t get a pass on being entertaining for the sake of having a message. I know pretentious people will claim the movie was entertaining in an attempt to be deep. The only person who could genuinely like this film is Joaquin Phoenix playing Arthur Fleck playing Arthur Fleck. I would say people struggling to find someway to like this movie is a whole lot more dangerous than monotony.

As as a score I give this a slow shot to the head full of regret. More valuable than the price of the ticket, is the time spent watching this movie and the several hours wondering why, how this could ever be made. I will never get back the time i’ve wasted back but hey “that’s life.”

Based on its own merits, this movie is actually very boring an cliched. If you have seen taxi driver, you have already seen a much better version of this movie.

Offensive, disturbing, unrespectful to source material, misleading, disgusting, insulting for anyone struggling with mental health issues. Score: '0-need to get drunk before viewing so I can fall asleep during srcreening and until the end credits'

Found the film disturbing from start to finish, felt very uncomfortable with the constant laughter from the lead actor and felt it was all very forced. Very disappointed and bored throughout.

Somewhat aesthetically pleasing, in a shallow way. Overall though, a boring and juvenile film with a pop-political, pop-philosophical message.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The only part of the entire film that makes sense is the credits. The storyline and script are horrendous. The acting is distasteful at best. Pheonix does try with the script but still he is very contradicting. It shows proof he has this illness, then he acts like he doesn’t, back and forth over the entire film. It’s awful, forgetful, and doesn’t make any attempt of continuing the story from previous installments besides attempting to show his Batman’s parents death which still directly contradicts what has been told since the beginning.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The music, cinematography, and the lead actor were incredible! The plot, pacing, and the idea that this was so supposed to be the Joker is the real joke here. Practically nothing was portrayed correctly in this movie from the comics or even other films or cartoons, and all that could be forgiven if they at least captured the essence of the character however they did not. He was never really funny (even though comedy is subjective as Arthur states himself) he isn't really a criminal he just kind of stumbles and fumbles through every situation, and most importantly he wasn't smart or conniving. This is supposed to the legendary, the infamous, the iconic villain of Batman in the future? A weak, pathetic, mentally ill clown that can't even keep a job or take care of his mother. Everything is handed to this character through plot driven circumstances. Oh the crowd just happens to get riled up just in time so he can slip through and meet Thomas Wayne. He didn't rile up the crowd, or plan a diversion how did he get a service outfit to blend in? Oh it was just laying around in a service closet just his size. The real Joker is smart and that is what allows him to go to to toe with the greatest detective of all time. He doesn't just get the luckiest circumstances in the world and just happens to beat Batman. He plans and schemes and puts on a show and actually knows how to be funny if he wants to be. The only reason I think this has good reviews is because my generation doesn't know the characters, and joaquin phoenix is an amazing artist bringing the role he was told to play to life. If this was a random movie about a random clown with mental illness and tragic story it would be a decent movie. As a movie supposedly portraying the Joker it was the worst movie DC has made so far. It was a movie made is if they don't understand their own character or why he is even so iconic or infamous in the first place. Sincerely a huge Joker fan Expand

I finally pushed myself to finish it. Joaquin Phoenix did an amazing character actor for this but the movie itself is depressing as hell. No idea why anyone would want to watch something that depresses you.

You could switch the name of this movie to Arthur and it wouldn’t change anything about how lacking this movie was of anything to do with DC’s Joker villain. It was a story about a villain who excelled at one thing and that was to COMPLAIN. The character was absent of the ingenuity and dark cunning that are the fundamental characteristics that make its famous anti-hero the Joker. The characters story is all nearly encased in the typical socialist narrative to appeal to modern popular ideology. I don’t know what this movie was but if you are looking to enjoy the cunning genius shared by the greats like Heath Ledger and Mark Hamill you won’t find it in this movie. Just an empty prettied up nobody with flashy dance moves and a running mouth. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This film is a malignant tumor on the collective psyche of society. I left the film feeling violated and disgusted. The only message this film sends is that the world is cold, cruel and uncaring and everyone in it is TERRIBLE. The plot is poorly constructed, the characters (ALL without exception) are flat, two dimensional and amoral. The rich are all insensitive pigs, and the poor are filthy, violent anarchists. No one has to take responsibility for their actions, because everyone else is to blame. The mental illness is poorly developed, he's supposed to be a vulnerable narcissist with some variation of tourette's, but instead he portrays as a schizophrenic with flat effect. Joaquin in this film has none of the Joker's infamous charisma or confidence. Instead he's portrayed as pathetic, grotesque and detestable. Furthermore, in this film the Joker is mentally, developmentally challenged, none of the Joker's ingenuity or wit. The whole film translates as a sob story told by a creatively challenged man. Maybe this whole film was supposed to be a sob story told to the psychiatrist, that would make it slightly less awful than it is. But not by a lot. This film is emotionally, narratively and cinematically flat. Expand

It's just Taxi Driver and Kings of Comedy frankensteined together. This is the Joker, we should not feel bad for the Joker, this was a chance for DC to make a real villain focused movie where we truly see a mans fall to madness. This guy is a whiny loser who doesn't like people being mean to him. The score is not good, it's obnoxious. The dance scenes are so on the nose with its oscar baiting that it's embarrassing. How about make Phoenix do some real blood curdling acting to win an oscar, but nope, we need dance sequences. Todd Philips made a mediocre, boring film that only succeeded because it had the greatest comic villains name on it. Shame on people for calling this quality when all it is, is recycled stories from great filmmakers who had to actually work for their classics. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A waste of my time. I expected a movie about a supervillain with warped ideas about society that loves trolling everyone, you know, something more akin to the actual Joker. Instead I got a movie about an insane beta-male nobody that has no existential purpose and therefore has nothing to lose when he decides to level up and become a homicidal insane beta-male nobody.

But I feel like if you've seen the trailers you've seen the movie because the best way I can describe this film is it feels like a 2 hour version of the trailer. At 2 hours it's a relatively common runtime, but it felt a lot longer...which isn't good. I'd say this is much more of a rental than a theater movie. Kinda just....eh. Expand

Not Just artificial but only full of boring tallks from batman the killing joke
Toxic movies that I hate forever I really believe that films like this harm not only the cinema but also our world First of all, it was the only DC movie I've seen that tried its best for the weaving philosophy. I'm sure many people know that this movie is an exaggerated movie, but what's worth noting is that not only the hero of the film does not understand classic comedy movie but chooses a bad movie to get emotional. Because that movie has nothing to do with his world. No matter how hard the movie tries, it can't get anything out of itself, especially by taking the acting from the lead role. A film in which there is no violence, but it tries to use it with fear. A film that is not only artificial but also does not any style...acting??!! And only talks boringly. Apparently, after years of increasing Joker appeal, the no-Batman-no-joke-and-no-even-hope-of--killing-joke pattern has become the norm.
