This movie has a great character arch for The Joker and delivers it perfectly with the cinematography, acting, directing, score and many other aspects, however, what puts this a an 8 for me is how some of the scenes or shots focused on being stylish more than it focused on contributing to the story; the portrayal of The Joker, even though I know it was trying to be more realistic, disappointed me a tiny bit because of how much crazier Joker is in the source material. Joker is still a good film if you watch it as a film rather than an adaptation, so I recommend you do that.

Not only is this my favourite movie of the century, it's one of my favourite movies of all time. What's so great about it? This movie has the best example of an amazing midpoint and conveys a theme and deeper meaning better than any other movie I've seen. The first half of the film was captivating enough, but once it reaches it's midpoint I was glued to my seat and my eyes were glued to the screen; this movie is close to perfect; I'm sure it might have some flaws, however, I can't see them since the are so easy to overlook because of the qualities that it would take me hours to list. Just to name a few; the pacing is fantastic, the characters are interesting, the conflict is original, and it has one of the best montages of recent years. This movie will go down in history and be remembered for years to come as an achievement of cinema, and this is why I strongly suggest you watch it.
