I love it how Metacritic is rating Joker lower than Batwoman. It should tell you all you need to know about the woke phase of the mental state they are in.

Joker tries to answer these questions, while it also gives the audience anWho is the Joker, and why does he do the things he do? Is he a maniac created by an accidental fall into an acidic bath or is he a symptom of the society as a whole? Joker tries to answer these questions, while it also gives the audience an honest glimpse of our modern society, where the poor are forgotten and left in a system that is meant to keep taps on them more than help them.
It is understandable why this movie has created so much controversy, because while it meant to be the backstory of Batman's arch-nemesis, it is firmly grounded in the reality and problems of today of today. problems that most people don't want to talk about or recognize.
Because of this, and due in a large part to the stellar performance of Joaquin Phoenix, this movie deserves the highest of marks, no matter what the professional critics might think. The movie is just about two hours long, but time flies when you're having fun, and in my humble opinion this is a movie that everyone should watch.
The best detail about this movie is the fact that it works perfectly as a standalone criticism of today's society, but it also works as a prequel to Christopher Nolan's "The Dark Knight" from 2008, as it tells a plausible backstory to Heath Ledgers Joker.

In short; this movie should be seen by all, and it should be rewarded with as many rewards as possible.

Atmosphere: if you like dark and depresive atmosphere this is somethng for you.
Side characters: Not that good but this is is understandable because main character was Joker
Joker: He is amazing character and in this movie you can see transformation from Arthur to Joker and I was amazed how well it is shown in this movie. his laughter is incredible you can see haw he does not want to laught but he have to. And he is so good character sometimes I sympathized with him but then I realize who he realy is.

Director of the movie managed to combine humor with extremely dark scenes filled with violence and aggression but it a way that it doesn't effect the seriousness of the situation at hand. Amazing. Joaquin's performance is the best acting I ever witnessed. It takes the 1st place, in front of DiCaprio's - The Revenant and Legder's - Joker. t. Oscar winning acting wihout a doubt, I have never experiences such mindblowing acting. Ledgers's Joker is a different type and thus I wouldn't dare to compare the status of each Joker, but this is another level of acting in my opinion. Overall a phenomenal movie with Oscar-winning acting without a doubt. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Despite being predictably difficult to watch, this was a very clever take on the Joker as a character (and make no mistake, he is a CHARACTER in this film). It was a very well done movie, that uses its tie-in to the Batman origin story very much as a quirk or a sideshow rather than the main event. Joaquin Phoenix is a revelation, killing it in every scene, sometimes literally, and the writing is so on point, with the buildup to its inevitable conclusion being both heartbreaking and an emotional roller coaster.

I wouldHonestly, I wasn’t expecting much from the trailers and director’s track record. I was only interested in seeing how Phoenix does as Joker but I expected the film to be run of the mill and lack substance. Well, it was a masterpiece. I would just say to anyone judging without actually watching, give it a try. If only to see Joaquin Phoenix top Heath Ledger as Joker, which I didn’t think would ever happen after Dark Knight. There was a hell of a lot more substance to this than I expected. This was a masterful slow burning character study, showing the transformation of a downtrodden, mentally ill sociopath, into The Joker. And yeah, it’s one of the darkest and most uncomfortable comedies you will ever see but it’s set up and done very well. Visually great, soundtrack great and Phoenix was unbelievable. This is getting a lot of bad reviews from critics who I guess were made uncomfortable but there are thousands of senselessly violent movies and this was dark as you get, but not senseless. Metacritic currently has an average rating from critics of 57/100, with both the metacritic and imdb users rating it 9.2/10. It used to be that I’d put more stock in the critics than average viewer ratings but it’s getting really hard to take modern reviewers seriously when you see the countless generic and badly constructed comic book adaptations and new Star Wars films get a better critical response than an actual piece of art like Joker.

If a child is not embraced by the village, he will burn the village down to feel its warmth.

This movie is a grimy, depressive arthouse trudge down the stairs of madness and corruption. Joaquin Phoenix gives the best performance of his life as Arthur Fleck, a man who seems to be born on the wrong side of the bed. Whereas Ledger's Joker says "all you need is one bad day to reduce a man to madness," Phoenix's Joker seems to say "all you need is one good day to save a man from madness."

This movie is a masterpiece. Please go see it. Every level is excellent. Phoenix delivers the ultimate performance, the soundtrack is haunting, the message is badly needed. I will see this movie again and again.

Aside from being masterfully shot, edited, acted and directed, the film is dangerous for all the right reasons. It casts a revealing light against us as a society in 2019 - how we treat each other, brush anything we don’t like or aren’t prepared to deal with under the carpet and most of all how the media and social elites tell us what to think, who to idolise, what we can or can’t like or find funny. The socio-political commentary took me completely by surprise in what is also a fantastic character study of a poor, lonely loser struggling with mental illness -who goes completely ignored through life when he’s not being bullied- and how this person finds less and less reasons to be polite and ‘put on a happy face’. Arthur is an underdog we all recognise, regardless of our race or gender, and the film raises the question that perhaps we need to look at ourselves closer in how we treat those in less fortunate situations than our own. It’s easy in this age of electronic distractions to adopt an ‘I’m alright Jack’ attitude, and perhaps it’s this ignorance to the cries for help of others that creates the Jokers of the real world.

This is the most relevant and important film of our time.

From Iron Man launching a franchise bigger than any interconnected cinematic franchise in history to The Dark Knight being known as one of the best films of all time, we're currently living in the golden age of comic book adaptations, so it should come as no surprise that a few unexpected outings would be attempted as well. Joker has now hit theatres and while I can say right off the top that it won't be for all moviegoers, this is a fantastic piece of storytelling. Being alone his entire life and thrown to the side by society, Arthur Fleck still lives with his mother well into adulthood and has a full-time job as a street clown. Having a condition that causes him to uncontrollably laugh, this character study is engaging from start to finish. Slowly realizing the truth about his life, things begin to devolve into chaos in his mind. Joker is simply a study of the mind of someone who has nothing left to live for or be happy about. For this reason alone, this is going to be a tough watch for certain viewers. Having a homicidal maniac as your core focus is not exactly an easy sell. Now, Joker shares quite a few similarities to other classic films, which is being criticized a lot throughout many reviews, but I didn't see that as a negative. There are so many formulas that have been emulated to create great works of fiction that calling this movie a rip-off would be an insult to the filmmakers. On top of that, this movie is held together by a performance by Joaquin Phoenix that's truly out of this world, so any minor issues I had were usually overshadowed by him. Phoenix's portrayal of this character, like every actor who has played this character in the past, is extremely committed, whether or not you like the outcome. Thankfully, I think his portrayal is completely different from anyone who came before him, making this movie one that will be able to stand on its own for a long time. From his quirks when the film begins to where he ends up during the final act, each and every moment was riveting. In the end, Joker does borrow a little too much from classic to really call it a masterpiece or perfect, but it's pretty close in my opinion, in terms of holding your interest for an unlikely anti-hero. It's directed very, very well by Todd Phillips and I was more than happy to see him evolve as a filmmaker here. This is something that I never thought I would see him do and, aside from the level of great comedy in a movie like The Hangover, this is probably his best work to date. I loved nearly everything about this movie, even though it will upset some viewers and make them feel very uncomfortable. In fact, for that reason alone, it has done its job very well. You're not supposed to root for him, but rather understand where his actions come from. This is a great film. Expand

This is a truly masterpiece. I was really shocked when I saw the low score from the critics but seriously.. you need to watch it by yourself. This movie has made me register into metacritic to write a review after years.. Nothing more to say.

Haunting and alluring. Joaquin Phoenix is the bei embodiment of a downtrodden member of society. Neglected, forgotten, and pained, we follow his character, Aurther Fleck down the rabbit hole to madness. A work of art.

Joker is unbelievable masterpiece with a lot of plot twists. Like these: Joker is imagining whole date, He killed his mother, His father is Thomas Wayne but when you get further in film: You will find out, that he is adopted and he don't know his father, not even his mom. I rate this movie 10/10. Hope it gets an oscar. Joaquin Phoenix is really a good actor and deserve your attention and of course... An oscar.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The acting, cinematography and score was excellent. My only problem is with the ending - it should've ended with Joker standing on the car and drawing a smile with his blood. That was the best shot in the whole movie and it was the highest point of the Joker's life. The ending with the asylum was too open and felt a bit toned down. Expand

'Joker' doesn't let you leave cinema without putting a smile on your face! (Or perhaps some of you will leave the theater with millions of possible theories for the ending)
As a Ledger's Joker fan, I'm now also a fan of Joaquin Phoenix's -
'Joker' doesn't let you leave cinema without putting a smile on your face! (Or perhaps some of you will leave the theater with millions of possible theories for the ending)
As a Ledger's Joker fan, I'm now also a fan of Joaquin Phoenix's - because he is the Joker. They both are.
From his Oscar-worthy (and more) performance of this legendary character, to the cinematography, and dare I say, everything else - the movie is either a 110 out of 100, or nothing. It takes a person who understands what they're watching here to love this movie. This movie is everything to those who get it, and nothing to those, who don't want to try to understand it. I loved every single scene. It was extraordinary. It was brilliant. 'Joker' is a masterpiece you haven't seen yet.
It is a "dream come true" piece of art, something that will leave you wondering for hours, days, and if you're a movie-lover like me, decades. It is that captivating & magnificently beautiful!
Joker is the film of the decade, and I'm not alone who would say this.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Kacau gilanya! Kacau sintingnya! Kacau edannya! Jelas salah satu produk Warner Bros. terbaik tahun ini, bahkan dekade ini. “Joker” tegas, berani, provokatif, emosional, sekaligus mengerikan. Jika “Midsommar” sekadar mengganggu batin, “Joker” dengan nyata mengacaukan jiwa dan pikiran kalian ke tingkat di mana kalian menyadari turut delusional akibat sebuah film.

Kewarasan kalian akan dipertanyakan kala menghadapi untuk harus bersikap simpatik terhadap karakter ini sebagai dampak dari kesehatan mentalnya atau mempertanyakan tindak kejahatannya yang semakin tidak terkendali. Tapi itulah Joker, bernama asli Arthur Fleck, salah seorang karakter antagonis legenda dan fenomenal dari sebuah karya fiksi. Film ini menghantarkan kita cerita lahirnya kriminal tersebut menjadi psikopat nomor 1 di Gotham. Di balik kisah asal muasalnya, “Joker” menyimpan lebih banyak isu dari yang dibayangkan. Sampah menumpuk di mana-mana, aksi berujung ricuh mengisi jalanan, hingga elit politik dan media tidak tahu diri yang terus meninggi di tengah kalang kabut segala konflik ini. Menonton “Joker” yang penuh ironi seakan menyaksikan dengan miris cerminan kondisi negara kita saat ini. “Perasaanku saja atau di luar sana semakin menggila?” tanya Joker.

“Joker” memang berhasil menjadi sebuah tontonan kritik sosial yang provokatif. Namun, film ini punya isu lebih dari itu. “Joker” adalah sebuah drama-psikologis yang berdampak kuat pada kondisi mental personal seorang insan manusia, baik itu sang karakter maupun kita sebagai penonton.

Joaquin Phoenix dalam penampilannya yang terus memukau di setiap film akhirnya tiba di puncaknya dalam film ini. Upayanya untuk menurunkan berat badan drastis tidak sia-sia. Sebagai Arthur, Phoenix dalam postur-postur mengerikan memutar anggota badannya seolah tulang-tulangnya terbuat dari plastik. Dan bagian terbaik adalah ketika ia berada di bawah tata rias badut dan tertawa maniak yang cukup untuk membuat bulu badan kalian tegak. Ini namanya penampilan ikonik! Kenapa Oscar masih begitu lama? Phoenix butuh penghargaan itu sekarang juga!

Mau bagaimanapun, “Joker” tetap sebuah film yang diadaptasi dari karakter ‘villain’ Batman. Todd Phillips yang selain menjabat sebagai sutradara tapi juga salah satu penulis naskahnya melakukan segenap usaha untuk memasukkan Bruce Wayne alias Batman ke dalam film ini. Pada akhirnya, “Joker” memang sebuah prekuel kisah hidup Batman. Namun, kita semua tetap tahu bahwa “Joker” bukanlah film buku komik biasa. Ini adalah film dari komik yang menyakitkan dan realistis.

Phillips mengaitkan Arthur dengan Wayne dalam sejumlah narasi dan momen yang mengejutkan. Ditambah beberapa adegan brutal bersimbah darah dan iringan musik pengiring mencekam dari Hildur Guðnadóttir, semua itu membuat kita sedikit teralihkan — atau malah kian stres — dari alur “Joker” yang sudah lebih dari cukup membuat kepala berat.

Phillips yang dulunya menangani trilogi komedi-dewasa “The Hangover” sempat disangsikan untuk menggarap proyek ambisius ini. Namun setelah menyaksikan film ini, aku senang Phillips bisa mengaplikasikan keahliannya dengan baik dalam ‘humor’. Kita tahu bukan bahwa kehidupan itu perbedaan tipis antara komedi dan tragedi?

Arthur di awal adalah sosok yang periang. Masih ada pula beberapa orang yang setidaknya melingkupinya dengan energi positif. Seperti ibunya yang renta sakit-sakitan tapi sangat menyayangi Arthur. Atau tetangganya, Sophie Dumond (diperankan oleh Zazie Beetz yang sayang tidak mendapat jatah pendalaman karakter lebih) yang sedikit menaruh perhatian. Dan ketika semua hal telah mencapai batasnya dan pilihan moral Arthur berubah, tidak ada yang bisa menghentikannya sebagai Yang Mulia Pangeran Badut Kejahatan dalam 15 menit terakhir film yang luar biasa!
