    The first time in ages the trailers have been carefully put together not to give too much of the story away. Joaquin phoenix looks perfect for this role.

    I don't watch trailers for that fact. I might watch the trailer for this though as you say it isn't your usual spoiler fest.

    I've literally not seen one critic give it less than 10/10

    The Guardian is really notoriously childish with their music and film reviews, they often have an agenda behind the marks they give and it often comes down to politics, they have to politicise everything.

    Does indeed. Great actor and looks great how he is working the role.

    To be fair there's two reviews on the guardian, one giving 5/5 and the other 2/5 within the same month.

    The tension it builds is crazy, unique film.

    I was a little disappointed. My brother thinks Phoenix wasn't a great choice but he couldn't think of an alternative.

    Personally, I think the portrayal of the Joker being a bit infantile and a little bit like a fairy ruined it a bit. Wanted to see more psychopath but at the same time I know it is just the background story.

    I think there will be another.

    Amazing film.

    Absolutely amazing. Best film I've seen this year for sure.
    Googled reviews after seeing it tonight and all I can do is laugh at things like the guardian. 2 out of 5 is just showing they have an agenda. Even if you dont go for the darker feel that DC and the batman/joker film tend to go for(and this is * dark), it's still a great film that anyone giving it as low as 2/5 is a * idiot and needs fired.

    Won't even bother with user rated sites either, will be spammed by marvel idiots.


    If you've got a remote interest in the joker character and the batman comics, you will at least enjoy this take.
    But, genuinely this is a great film!

    Really enjoyed it. Would have loved to see Joaquin Phoenix's joker come up against Batman but can't see that happening as JP must be what 40 years old in this and Batman 11 maybe ? So by the time he becomes Batman Joker would be about 60 haha
