I was lucky enough to be at the premiere of the joker last night and I have to say it was outstanding . Joaquin Phoenix will defo get the oscar for it . Be interesting to see which joker people find better this one or Heath ledgers . I personally didn't think it was possible but I have to say I think this new one is darker , grittier more violent and the whole delving into his mental health issues and origins was brilliant and Phoenix's performance was top class. |

as much as we love comic book movies we are torn with this one for a few reasons. have heard it's great and one of the best versions of joker to date but the whole rewriting of his origin once again doesn't sit well with us.  |

Don't go expecting comic book bash pow zap....... this film is a gritty reality. It's a parable of society and it's treatment of the vulnerable.
Joaquin is phenomenal as a desperate but out of touch and - sadly - an unlikeable Arthur Fleck......
It's still in my head..... both visually and emotionally. |

No..I have seen the trailers...he takes it up another stage from where Heath Ledger left the character...Phoenix gives it that uncomfortable edge |

Not a fan of these movies but He's a ride  "
Am sure he'd return the compliment if he was on Fab...maybe he is ???  |

Seen a meme during the week, that summed up the joker of modern times...
90's: Drop him into a bath of acme acid.
Present day: Drop him into society.
Really made you think. |

Agreed
Great social commentary
Look out for the time on the clock, the music as Joker goes down the steps, the political factions represented |
