Review of Joker (2019) by Flowerflip — 27 Oct 2019
Really good movie. It's a super good origin movie that is extremely sad and dark, but not overly political or artsy fartsy. It just is what it is, and the fact that the elite are horrified seeing their reflection in the dystopian Gotham when it's not overly stated is assuredly an added bonus.
There's no cheesy writing or statements, but the horror of the movie is the same dystopia that's our leaders of the last 50 years seem to be leading us too. But really it's just a Joker origin story.
I love how they managed to pull this off. It's not about "incels" but is assuredly about croney capitalism, without ever outright saying it.
