So after all the praise and hype was it worth it and did it deserve it? YES!
Does Joaquin Make a good Joker? YES!

So Joker is a stand alone Dc film based on well looky here, it's about the Joker who is arguably the most famous villain of all time.
Joker is about a man named, Arthur Fleck who has some problems and the film is entirely based on his perspective and I swear down there is not a single scene without him in.
Arthur is trying to get by in life but society doesn't like him, people look down on him and mock him and beat him up when all he needs is care and support. He takes several medicinal products and has a journal to keep him on track but what happens when society gets too much and when medical business's shut down and when truths come out and friends and family aren't really there for Arthur? Well you guessed it, he put's on a happy face because Arthur is then effectively dead and here we have.....JOKER!

Joaquin gives an outstanding performance, his laughs are painful and unsettling for a lot of the time it's only when he laughs as Joker is where it's not unsettling. His laughs genuinely look like they are hurting him and he laughs at non funny things when everyone else laughs at the funny parts.
Arthur's mood and the tone and lighting is dull, moody, depressing and it gets darker and darker until the Joker arrives. Anytime he is in clown gear is when the films lighting has colour but he and we don't fully embrace the beautiful stunning colours of the world until Arthur is gone and Joker is out into the world.

The original score is very haunting and makes you feel uneasy by way of heavy slow bassy stringed instruments such as the violin and bass/cello. The supporting cast in the film were all so good.
The story was great there was fan theories going around about this film and the film does confirm some of these theories BUT soon as it does, it squashes them instantly. The story and script is so good.
The licensed soundtrack is so upbeat and lovely and iconic that it completely changes the world as the world completely changes the tone of the music.
When Joker emerges I had a big smile on my face. This film does make you feel for Arthur and makes you root him on. I know he's a loony and a bad guy but he would have been okay if things in the world had gone better if he had support and continued good treatment. He had a bad day and it's all brought him to a breaking point which is so relatable and it's so jarring to realise that one bad day could drive a man to lunacy.
Joker is a violent, dark, epic, realistic take on the iconic villain, one I hope we get more of in the future. Joaquin please do a sequel.
This film is gonna win awards I'm telling you. All the hype and praise is so spot on and i cannot name anything bad or wrong with this film!
I've seen it twice now in cinemas and i highly recommend watching it!
Fave quotes: "My life is nothing but a comedy."
"Comedy is subjective, Murray. Isn’t that what they say? All of you, the system that knows so much, you decide what’s right or wrong. The same way that you decide what’s funny or not."
"Everybody is awful these days. It’s enough to make anyone crazy."
"Nobody’s civil anymore! Nobody thinks what it’s like to be the other guy."
"All i have are negative thoughts."
"Is it me or is it getting crazier out there?"
“I just hope my death makes more cents than my life.”
“The worst part of having a mental illness is people expect you to behave as if you don’t.”
"You get what you f**king deserve!"
