Warning: This movie is not for the weak heart.
This movie is not everyone's cup of tea.
Dark, Intense, Gruelling, Psychotic, Violent, Disturbing, Suicidal....etc are the words to describe this movie. The Greatest trick this joker pulled off is making us feed bad for him. This Joker is more realistic than the other jokers portrayed in the previous movies. The Darkness in this joker is so addictive that it may attract other mentally-ill people to choose violent acts. I won't reveal the story as the story is simple but what really stands out is it's cinematography, screenplay, climax and editing. Joaquin phoenix passes with flying colours as the joker. He rightly justifies his selection and really does wonderful justice to his role. Infact, no other character in the movie is worth watching apart from Joaquin phoenix. His joker laugh is haunting and maniacal. Joaquin phoenix can be hailed as the next best joker after Heath ledger.
My rating for this movie - 4/5.
