I felt my money was well spent. Saw Ad Astra the other week and wanted my fucking money back but this, this was a good movie.
Felt the music was great, didn't know whether the Gary Glitter track was purposefully controversial or not, i'm gonna guess that it was. And, when 'White Room' kicked in, well, RIP Ginger.
Cinematography was cool, and i liked that fact that we didn't need to see the abuse of young Arthur to give his mental health credibility.
As a comment on todays society?, i felt it captured some of the meetoo/anonymous spirit quite successfully. And it reflected the demise and insignificance of terrestrial TV through DeNiros ultimately cruelty.
Overall, better than your mum, not as good as your dad.
- Yeah, Ad Astra was a disappointment. Fucking great first action scene, though.babydick
- is batman in it?wagshaft
- No, unfortunately Batman wasn't in Ad Astra although one of the Men In Black was.Morning_star

It embraced and exposed the evil of the Democratic left. Also mirrored democratic policies in NY, Seattle, San Francisco.
Good movie.

It was good. Phoenix is one of the best actors around.
- Yeah he was great. None of my problems with the movie have to do with him.CygnusZero4

I personally thought it was pretty good, especially given the state of cinema these days. It was a bit of a sleeper cell in the same way funny games (the English speaking remake) was. People who may have been expecting another “superhero” flick might have found themselves blindsided. But then again, maybe they saw the wrong things they were supposed to see. All told I thought it was pretty solid. Stole/borrowed a lot from 70s cinema but in a good way. Having grown up with that stuff I wasn’t insulted or otherwise. He’s not an auteur but all that said, did a good entertaining job.

Incredibly well made and acted. Absolutely brilliant for a comic book movie.

It's the best film I've seen in recent years
- pango1
really good.
Heavy tho. Definitely not a feel good movie.
And I don't think everyone should watch it.

Neither a comic nor a psychological thriller.
A common origin story that gives not much more than Phoenix's performance.

DeNiro was throw away tho, Rob burgundy would have been amazing

It was fine. The shot of Joker killing DeNiro was pretty raw, I definitely cringed. I feel it's a worthy prequel to Dark Knight even though it's really not trying to be.
Joaquin carries this thing to a higher quality piece than it ever should have been.

Its not a superhero movie. There are no superheroes in it. Its one of those weird movies that doesnt really have a main protagonist or antagonist. Arthur is kind of both. In the beginning youre supposed to pull for him I guess, but then he starts becoming evil later on, but it almost never feels like he becomes that evil. More like he was pushed by the world into doing these things. I dont feel like he becomes the true Joker in this movie that just kills for fun.
There just needed to be more there though. I really wanted him to rob a bank or something first. Not jump straight into kill people. He doesnt even really kill that many people anyway. Whole movie was weird as hell.

THought this was an interesting take.
"Although Joker is a quintessential comic-book villain, the movie focused on his human side and portrayed him as a product of a toxic environment. The true villain in this movie is mass media which gave Joker all the praise and attention he always craved – but only after he murdered people.
Media turned Arthur – a nobody – into Joker – a somebody. And the gullible people, those who consume mass media with no discernment, turned that Joker into a political leader."
