В этом фильма шикарно всё! Все актеры сыграли настолько правдоподобно, что ты буквально ловишь себя на мысли: "а фильм ли я смотрю?! Это не сцены из реальной жизни?"
Музыкальное сопровождение отлично подчеркивает моменты фильма усиливая впечатления и эффект.
Сюжет не банален, несмотря на повседневные темы, но самый смак этой картины в том, что весь фильм, кроме финальной сцены это вымысел главного персонажа.

Amazing story, incredible acting by Joaquin Phoenix. It definitely deserves a few Oscar's, such as best movie, best actor and best screenplay. It attracts fans and non fans of Batman/superheros.

Not sure if that makes sense but that’s how the movie made you FEEL! The movie deserves an Oscar, for the cinematography, the music...the music just set the tone...so well done....whoever the composer was deserves a nomination.... and the acting. Joaquin carries the whole weight of the movie from beginning to end. Let’s just say after this performance, I don’t think anyone can replay this role!!!!! Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A particular film because it is an author film sold as a blockbuster under 17 years old. The plans are slow, working just like the light and the angle of approach not to mention the environments and the different places. This is the story of a character coming to embrace the madness of the world to make something of coloring red. The film is particularly good for his illness and is done in a rigorous way. Nothing has the area to be left to chance .. But I do not find this film excellent. It fits like a very good anti-hero movie such as we rarely see today alongside super-hero movies breaking the box office. The success of this joker can be because it fits in a time when the forbidden becomes allowed -17Ans, but especially that compare to what can do Marvel or DC; tries a sneakier and cinematic approach. Finally it may be the only movie that shows the cinema that we could see people fan of superheroes. That says a lot about our time. Thank you

Un film particulier, car c'est un film d'auteur vendu comme un blockbuster moins de 17ans. Les plans sont lents, travailler tout comme la lumière et l'angle d'approche sans compter les environnements et les différents lieux. C'est l'histoire d'un personnage venant embrasser la folie du monde pour en faire quelque chose de colorier en rouge. Le film rend particulièrement bien sa maladie et le fait surtout de manière rigoureuse est prolongé. Rien n'a l'aire d'être laissée au hasard.. Pourtant je ne trouve pas ce film excellent. Il s'insère comme un très bon film d'antihéros tel qu'on en voit rarement aujourd'hui à côté des films de super héros qui casse le box-office. Le succès de ce joker vient peux être du fait qu'il s'insère dans une époque ou l'interdit devient permis #-17Ans, mais surtout que comparer à ce que peux faire Marvel ou DC; tente une approche plus sournoise et cinématographique. Finalement c'est peux être le seul film qui montre ce qu'est le cinéma qu'on pu voir les gens fan de super héros. Cela en dit long sur notre époque. Merci accompagnatrice

However, as a movie about the Joker it misses the mark completely. In the world of super villains the Joker is one of the darkest most unnerving charachters ever. The most common misconception is that the Joker has anything to do with comedy or being funny...He is the personification of something far more evil. The darkest part of the human psyche. The tendensy to find gratification and pleasure in the pain, suffering and death of other human beings. Sadism... The makers of this movie totaly seem to miss this point. In fact this Joker barely could be called a super villain. He doesn't scheme, he isn't that bright, and he doesn't kill that many people. He certainly doesn't prey on the weak and vulnarable...Actualy... he has nothing in common with the creep we know as THE JOKER Expand

It's a super good origin movie that is extremely sad and dark, but not overly political or artsy fartsy. It just is what it is, and the fact that the elite are horrified seeing their reflection in the dystopian Gotham when it's not overly stated is assuredly an added bonus. There's no cheesy writing or statements, but the horror of the movie is the same dystopia that's our leaders of the last 50 years seem to be leading us too. But really it's just a Joker origin story. I love how they managed to pull this off. It's not about "incels" but is assuredly about croney capitalism, without ever outright saying it. Expand

Let me begin by stating that I'm not a superhero movie "fanboy" and came into the theater with an open mind about this movie, not feeling either way about the genre in general. I left feeling like this was one of the top 5 movie's I've everLet me begin by stating that I'm not a superhero movie "fanboy" and came into the theater with an open mind about this movie, not feeling either way about the genre in general. I left feeling like this was one of the top 5 movie's I've ever seen in my life.

This movie feels "raw" and does not make any attempt to please the audience. You truly get the impression that each piece of the film has a purpose. This is refreshing compared to most films which seek only to please the viewer. How refreshing! This may seem obvious to some when it comes to crime based movies with an anti-hero lead. But there is something different about this film, I haven't experienced anything like it in this regard. The editing is also fantastic. They did an amazing job with both the visuals and audio cut. It is 100% worth going to see in theaters if you can for this reason alone. Phoenix's acting was absolutely stunning as well. His performance truly blew me away. The way he delivers each line forces the viewer to empathize with his character. I was not expecting this from this film, but gave me one of those moments where I said: "Very few people could ever act on this caliber, he is gifted". Beyond this, his physical performance was also spectacular. There are several scenes where he contorts his body in ways that could only be possible from a legitimate actor.

In summary, this is a must watch or even buy in my opinion. I myself am usually quite cynical when it comes to most films for the reason that they tend to spew out unrealistic pleasantries to make the viewer feel good. I am usually screaming internally when this happens as it's usually pretty obvious. If you feel the same way, you will adore this movie. If you are the "feel good" type, you may not enjoy this film quite as much, but it is still worth watching solely for Phoenix's performance.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There's no denying the depth of Phoenix's performance, but it boils down to watching an entire movie featuring a tortured soul's life coming apart. It is slow and grating, with some nod to the origin and interrelation of the Joker and Batman, but it's not worth the wait in the dark of the theater of of the Joke's life. There is no real rhyme or reason to his elevation to folk hero for his murders, other than to introduce a "commentary" on the media's (now the internet's) sudden ignition of wildfires of celebrity and the "Resist" movement in a bid for contemporary relevance. They should have introduced testimony from the woman on the train as to the dark side of the three "preppy" victims in order to make some sense of the riots, etc. Without it, there's no reason for the uprisings. Plus, I've got to say that the level of violence is way below what I expected in light of the controversy preceding the film's release. I was actually just at the point of asking the usher how long was left in the film (I was thinking of leaving) when it ended. Should have asked earlier. Expand

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.

Movies are not propaganda to influence your "solutions". Joker started conversation and it told us the problems with a great art and picture. I can not ask more from a film. I didn't expect a conclusive ending and received a great movie experience. Reminder that movie critics are just people who are trying to push down their agenda. Happy that most of the audience liked it. It will go down in history with the other great movies regardless of an oscar or critics just like Fight Club. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The movie was brilliant. It showed how joker was created after how the society treated him, it showed mental illness problems that he had and how people kept rejecting him. It didn't feel rushed at all, the took the time to build a character that is THE JOKER. The acting was amazing, the scenes felt right the camera angles felt right everything about the movie was just great, recommend it. Expand

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

The constantly down trodden Arthur Fleck dreams of making it as an entertainer, but his failure ultimately leads him down a dark path.

Set in the early 80’s this is essentially (as the title suggests) a stand alone origin story for Batman’s most famous foe ‘The Joker’. Despite the comic book inspiration however this really has more in common with Scorsese movies like Taxi Driver or King of Comedy in the way it provides an intense character study into one mans battle with mental illness.

With a brilliant lead performance from Joaquin Phoenix ‘Joker’ makes for a captivating watch and is one of those movies that people will be talking about for years to come. The only disappointment is we won’t see this version of The Joker on the big screen again...

I fear that the high reviews for some people on here are solely based on the acting or on it's message, or just reactionary because of criticisms the movie has received—and I think these are flawed measurements. What are its merits and deficiencies? First of all, the acting is excellent. Joaquin Phoenix is a favorite actor of mine and he does not disappoint! I am amazed that he can capture a character so well. His portrayal of the Joker is brilliant. The Joker is sad and disturbing. At different times of the movie, you feel tremendous empathy for the Joker—clearly he's gotten a rotten deal out of life and is deeply troubled—and at other times, he's terrifying. Less impressive...The movie is kind of slow moving, but never boring, at least to me. As has been said by the director and others, this movie is not your typical "comic book" movie—if you go into it expecting lots of actions, bombs, shootings, car chases, etc—you will be disappointed. (I actually appreciated that about the movie!) There is some of that, but this is by far, more of a drama with very little humor at all. Also, it's not a feel-good drama, the kind that you will want to see again and again. Now in terms of what I think was missing in the movie...the so called "climatic, shocking, surprising ending" was predictable. To me, the ending had only two real possibilities and the one I suspected is actually what happened. The ending was the low point of Joker; it began to break down into predictable patterns when I listened to the conversation between Joker and character Murray Franklin. It mostly sounded like the typical diatribe you find on a liberal college campus these days. The world has been unfair to Joker and therefore Joker will get even with the world. And the subtle message is that his violence and terrorism is a bit justifiable—finally the "weak and ignored" get their revenge. It also turns the whole Batman story on its head—it makes Joker out to be the hero and Thomas Wayne (and all the rich and powerful) to be the villains and jerks of society. Certainly this is true of some rich and powerful people in our world, but it's this kind of broad brush approach that frustrates me in a movie and the message ends up sounding like a Bernie Sander's campaign speech (no offense intended to Bernie or his supporters). The ending had the potential to be something different, something unconventional—even ambiguous would have been good. (An illustration of what I mean from the Joker in the "The Dark Knight" movie: "Do I really look like a guy with a plan? You know what I am? I'm a dog chasing cars. I wouldn't know what to do with one if I caught it! You know, I just... do things." It was that frustrating ambiguity that made the Joker so interesting in The Dark Knight. He was evil to his core and we didn't need to feel sorry for him and we didn't need a justification for his insanity. The message: some people are just evil, without explanation. But in the movie, Joker, at its core, it sounded like a version of the same old retread theme we've been getting these days in shows and movies. All in all, not a bad movie, but I would say, save your money and rent it online cheaper when it comes out soon. Expand

Not that it’s a bad thing, but outrage tends to overshadow movie's overall intentions. It’s no surprise that Joker ends up getting a nice share of the outrage, but it often leads the question: Is the film worth all the controversy or is it a small issue blown up into a big one?

The film follows Arthur (Joaquin Phoenix) is older down on his luck man suffering through various mental illnesses, particularly his uncontrollable laughter in various scenarios. As his world crumbles around him, he finds himself teetering on reality and fantasy as he seeks to find some form of acceptance as he becomes the legend known as the Joker.

This is no surprise when I say that Joaquin Phoenix pulls out an amazing performance as the Joker. He finds a perfect line trying to humanize his character's disability and bringing the viewer into his mind and often sweeping the rug under our feet with an “unreliable narrator” presentation where it makes you wonder what really happens and what doesn’t. The film gorgeously re-creates an early 1980’s New York aesthetic with the grime, trash and somehow frames it in a pretty well-shot way.

The biggest problem is when portraying a character with disabilities, Director Todd Phillips shoots the film in the foot with often falling back on cliche old demeaning natures. Particularly one character who’s only character trait is his dwarfism and is often made fun of his height, that even involves a pretty dark scene later on which is hard to tell if it’s a payoff for a joke or not. Also, the film borrows a couple too many pages from Taxi Driver, which ironically stars Robert De Nero who’s in this film as well and is pretty great as a talk show host.

Joker will divide many people and I think that’s the goal of the film. Many will like the portrayal of the villain, and many will dislike the violence and how certain things are represented. But I feel what many will agree on is how Joaquin Phoenix knocks it out of the park.

Heath Ledger from the 'Dark Knight' was my personal favourite joker till date & Joaquin Phoenix took the legacy of Heath to another level altogether.....that laugh, that dance, that sprint, that walk....uff....can't get over that !!!

Talking about the other aspects of the movie....the background music was the soul of the movie, if not the psyche and the madness of joker itself,,,,,the cinematography, the supporting cast, the direction...everything thing was right on money , the movie very smartly dealt with the then situation of America (the Gotham city),,,,,the unemployment, the raising power in the hands of the rich....all it took was a stand and a voice (be it good or bad) against the established power to become the 'HERO'...which further became the reason of the rise in murders & crime in the city !!!

In his small appearance, the legend Robert De Niro was exceptionally awesome, something that u would expect from him everytime u see him on the screen.....that small conversation at the end btwn joker and De Niro was cinematic beauty and looked damn organic....an absolute treat to watch !!!

Don't know about the oscars, but it was once in the lifetime performance by Joaquin Phoenix....and would remain in my heart for years & in my brain for days to come,,,may be.....The best portrayal of a psycho character that i have seen...was that of Christian Bale in 'American Psycho'.....Phoenix was right up there too if not above, not only the craziness, disturbance and madness but also the physical transformation was quite commendable.

!! IF HEATH HAS GIVEN HIS LIFE FOR THE JOKER THEN I WOULD SAY PHOENIX HAS GIVEN A LIFE TO THE JOKER !!

My one of the favourite lines from the movie was...joker saying to himself,,,"I used to think that my life is a TRAGEDY but now i realise that it is nothing but COMEDY"....so, u can imagine how disturbing a movie could be with it's theme being 'TRAGEDY=COMEDY'...but it was not that disturbing for me as i am used to of or aware of the ongoing social-political structure of our country !!!

It has got those 'Dark Knight' (arguably one of the finest superhero movie ever made) vibes...i had an emotional ride, watching small Bruce Wane (Nolan's batman) meeting Joker, getting to know the pre batman story of the Gotham city and the back story or the building-up of the 'Joker the villain' of dark night.....IT WAS QUITE NOSTALGIC FOR ME IN THAT WAY !!!

If i would have maximum of 5 stars to give to this movie, i would have simply divided it by zero (0).....i write about movies all the time but this one has that 'something' that forced me to type and share my views with u guys instead of writing it in my diary.....on that note i would like to finish this review with one line...."THIS IS THE BEST MOVIE IN LAST SEVERAL YEARS THAT I SAW....& U CAN'T CAN'T CAN'T MISS IT" !!!

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Слишком спорное отношение к фильму. Потому и не слишком понятно по каким критериям выставлять оценку. Не то, что фильм отвратителен или ещё чего. Нет. Великолепная игра Хоакина Феникса, отличная работа кинооператора и идеально подобранный сауднтрек, все это есть в этом фильме. А спорное отношение потому, что ты не знаешь - можно отнести этот фильм полноценно к кинокомиксам или ко взрослой картине про окончательно съехавшего с катушек психопата. Да, может действие картины и происходит по вселенной DC, но при всем при этом чувствуется некая отчужденность от классической серии. Если в"Хранителях", которые не менее мрачны, ещё чувствуется, что это вселенная DC, то в данном фильме, как я уже и сказал, не особо.
Непосредственно, сам Джокер появится в конце да и то, хочется сказать, что вот, да, это тот самый Джокер, который творит просто безбашеные поступки, приходя на телевидение и заявляя, что это он убил тех парней, а в итоге и затреливает самого ведущего. Это похоже на Джокера. Но ключевое слово - похоже. Это не Джокер. Это просто психопат, который на него похож.
Ах, и да. Чудесный киноляп - на моменте, когда Артур расстреливает тех трех парней в метро, он стреляет семь раз из шестизарядного револьвера.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Joker is an entertaining movie and its depiction of the titular character was compelling from begging to end. Joaquin Phoenix's performance was outstanding and will be remembered as on of the better Joker performances. Unfortunately, the movie falls flat when it comes to its themes and what it wants to say.

It seems like it wants us to be on the side of the working class. After all, the joker is a working class man who's issues are exacerbated by the upperclass. The government cut funding to mental health services, leaving him without his therapist and medication. Thomas Wayne seems uncaring and critical of the poor and even his celebrity hero made jokes at his expense. Following the Joker's actions, you can see how the class divide came to a head with the working class finally having enough of the oppression of the upper class and want social change.

However, this falls apart when you consider the actions of the Joker and rioters. The Joker, while more sympathetic in this iteration, is still a psychopathic killer and he is propped up as the hero of the working class. The working class started rioting and one even murders the Waynes in the alley as a form of revenge on the upper class. If the film wants us to take the side of the working class as the ones being taken advantage of, it failed. The upperclass were **** but the working class are dangerous criminals. This isn't helped by the fact that the movie showed the murder of the Waynes. We all know what will become of young Bruce. He becomes the hero of Gotham. He is also the top 1% Billionaire playboy. So eventually the hero of Gotham will be a rich man saving Gotham from people like his parent's murderer, who happens to be a poor and angry at the rich.

Even if the movie wanted to try to take a 'both sides' argument, it fails because the actions of the working class were way worse than the actions of the upperclass. The upperclass are the ones getting murdered in the streets. The working class are the ones idolising a killer clown. It seems very one sided.
