Joaquin carried the fuck out of Joker and his performance, as usual, was spectacular. Unfortunately, for me at least, that’s where the merits of the film ended. I get that it resonated with a lot of people so maybe I am just not in the right headspace to truly appreciate the message, but ultimately I share the thoughts of the reviewer in the OP on this one.

It was a Taxi Driver remake that licensed a DC character instead of paying Scorsese. It was solidly okay.

But Phoenix 100% earned the Oscar with it.

I fully agree with you. We also went to see Napoleon because of him and were left disappointed. Please hire him for a great movie, somebody! PTA is making a new movie, so maybe we’re lucky?
