Holy shite, that was powerful.
It was a slow burn, but once he got in full costume and left the apartment, it was fricking unbelievable.
I read the other day where someone said, (maybe it was Todd Phillips) that comic book adaptations are today's Shakespeare. You don't go to a play and say, "Holy frick. They're re-doing Hamlet? AGAIN?!"
Heath Ledger is still my favorite version, but this was the most sympathetic take on the character I've ever seen.

The one thing I wasn't expecting was the age gap between Arthur and Bruce. He's got 25 years on the kid.
Doesnt change anything

My jaw was on the floor the entire movie. OMG so awesome. It was truly a character study like Phillips said.

The slow, methodical build-up in this film is amazing. When you finally get to his Joker persona your entire body is clenched.
Jesus, Phoenix is in every scene. You never come up for air. He’s fricking amazing.
I chuckled a second when young Bruce slid down that pole, and the Waynes walking out of “Zorro The Gay Blade”, until I realized it wasn’t just another shoutout.
Movie exceeded all of my expectations. frick the haters.

Went and saw it with some coworkers during lunch.
It was great.
From the scene with his mom, to the way he carries himself after getting away from the police, to the Murray show, to him in the mental hospital.
You see a lot of Ledger's vicious/confident type Joker starting to develop.
Hell of a character arc.
It was great.
