This movie takes on mental illness in a big way! Also spins the typical story of the elite stepping on the unfortunate and ignoring those hurt by society and the injustice of poverty. Excellent directing by Todd Phillips and an Oscar worthy performance by Joaquin Phoenix, shot in a drab 80's style like Maniac or Taxi driver that would make Scorsese proud. Then wraps it all up with subtle touches of a familiar tale bent to the storyteller's take of the DC comic universe that should keep fanboys interested. A must see in my opinion.
This film is the furthest from the stylistic ultra-violence and witty banter that Tarantino usually provides with great storytelling and direction. It doesn't need to be. He shows us another side of himself and his skill set, in my opinion. This movie is brilliant, beautiful, and funny. With a just SPLASH of what you're used to from one of the greatest writer/directors of all time.
The cast did an amazing job. Was a really good concept. Not completely original, but had original components. Could've been a 10 had the story been developed a bit more and the score not have been so sleepy.
