Joaquins performance was amazing. It helped me understand the other side of the villain. The way the story line was set up so that the parts of the joker and Batman that we all know, fall in to place was done beautifully. the movie made me feel a bunch of emotions ranging from empathy to sadness. Many people are over reacting and saying the film was too "violent",but game of thrones was 100% worse and no body complained about that.
