Joker made me laugh , cry , and made me feel scared . This movie isn't your run of the mill superhero flick this is a gritty homage to that of films made by the great Martin Scorsese . Some scenes will have you in shock and awe without breaking away from what Arthur sees and feels as he lives in an 80's era Gotham living with paper help and his mom and a mental disorder (Pseudobulbar affect if I'm not mistaken ) , the film also adds the unreliable narrator aspect ( where the camera can show you something that either isn't real or isn't happening), besides t... read the rest.
Each to their own, as always, but for me: Incredible!
I was fully aware of 'Joker' ever since its release, impossible not to be given the extraordinary hype that surrounded it, but it still absolutely surpassed my expectations - a sensational film. I adored every second of this; and I'm not even a Joker/DC Comics etc. 'fan'.
Joaquin Phoenix gives an astonishingly outstanding performance as the titular character, undoubtedly one of the greatest showings that I've ever seen from an actor. I'm not one that takes notice of awards, but he is fully deserving of anything of that ilk tha... read the rest.
Carried by a terrific Phoenix, ‘Joker’ leaves an emotional impact as we see a bullied clown slowly transform into someone who enjoys creating chaos. Too bad we don't get to enjoy Phoenix as Joker more, though, because pretty soon after the turning point, the movie ends.
It was exactly what it wanted to be, and it pulled it off perfectly. The "slow" parts add a lot to the atmosphere and it all culminates in a dramatic and unforgettable ending.
I knew it was gonna be super hard for me to like a Joker after Heath Ledger... Cameron in Gotham did awesome, Leto was really insane as Mr. J. But, I wanted a Joker stand alone... And this is what they gave me...
Brilliant. From start to finish i just was on the edge of my seat. This movie pulled at my heart. I saw myself in this character and understand every reason why a series of bad days could make a person ... Snap. Well done.
It's not an incel movie, despite what people are saying. And it's no a White Supremacy film either. It's not even a pro T-word president film. In fact, it addresses some pretty heavy left wing issues. Or at least issues that were traditionally on the left before things went...weird and all topsy turvy.
However, it is also NOT a Marvel Film, so of you are walking in expecting a Marvel style movie you will walk out hating it. So don't go in expecting an MCU film.
Instead you get a dramatic, slow moving, intensely building movie that develops it's characters.
The scenario told in this film depicts a situation in which we frequently disregard the feelings and situations of others around us, people who may not have the same advantages as us. We can sense the psychological upheaval that Joker is experiencing from his point of view. All disappointment and rage build up and eventually explode. The people of Gotham rebelled as a result of their dissatisfaction and indignation at the injustice they faced.
The Joker is also seen dancing on a car in the midst of the rioting, surrounded by people shouting his name. Making them an embodiment of "Hero" in or... read the rest.
Joker, portrait of a psychopath but beloved by a nation
In the science fiction genre of Hollywood cinema, especially the superhero genre, many movies have been made that include different dimensions of humans. Courage and effort for the survival of the family are among these dimensions.
In 2019, on the silver screen of Hollywood, we see a masterpiece that indescribably takes us back to our childhood.
That's right, Joker
After Nolan's masterpiece, which we mainly remember as the Joker with Heath Ledger's fantastic role, we haven't seen a significant work on this DC character.
Considering... read the rest.
