About this movie

“Joker” centers around the iconic arch-nemesis and is an original, standalone story not seen before on the big screen. The exploration of Arthur Fleck (Joaquin Phoenix), a man disregarded by society, is not only a gritty character study, but also a broader cautionary tale.

Ratings and reviews

Joker sets out to try to prove it has big ideas, but ultimately falls short. The world feels like a setup specifically to create the Joker, and ends up with a sad version of the character in a universe where batman would never exist. On top of that, it's uncomfortable to watch, the repetitive violin reminds me of a laugh track, and the entire movie feels more like the director whining about not being able to make comedy movies anymore. Strongly recommend skipping this one.

I thought I'd have a lot more to say about this movie, but I really don't. Joaquin's performance is great, and Todd Phillips' direction was surprisingly on point for this character study film. Outside of that all I can really say is that's it's ok, I think the people that LOVE this movie are people that have never seen something like Taxi Driver before. Still though, worth watching at least once and is a step in the right direction for DC films. More of these and less Suicide Squads please.

very bad,even yor grandma would be better at joker,dc is bad at hero market they did huge copy paste of joker interview from dark knight returns part1&new interview is not even better and voice is so bad even spongebob voice is better than that,also this bad jokers nice voice is so bad that its hard to watch and instant skip on the worst parody film&the bad unaware producers should learn about the best of characters and their stories before confirm release
