Saw Joker. Great movie 9/10. Character driven comic book film. Superb performance by Joaquin Phoenix. If you can get past the left-wing story-telling, and you like intriguing Origin stories, then you'll love it.
Going today. I loved "King of Comedy" which this is compared to quite often so I'm looking forward to it. I love character driven stories and Phoenix is a great actor.
I saw both films, Les. Excellent films.My father never liked Jerry Lewis' typical work in movies. He thought he was a fantastic actor and wasted his talent playing a buffoon so often.
If any of you haven't seen The King of Comedy make sure you see it right away. No special effects, just straight up great acting and writing.
@PARAM have you seen Dallas Buyers Club. Among the best character driven stories I've ever seen. Also same with Boys Don't Cry. Hilary Swank is a favorite of mine and in this film she was awesome.
I saw both films, Les. Excellent films.
How about Colin Firth?Cumberbatch is shite
Just cause you have an English accent doesn’t mean you are a good actor
Shite
How about Colin Firth?
Boating flick? No. BTW what actor doesn't make a less than impressive movie? Have to pay the bills.Did you see that boating flick he did?
Mercy.....
Not so good. But he is a solid actor. And will age really well.
Cumberbatch though, I don’t know, he has only 2 decent movies to his name. The Sherlock thing never impressed me, way too complicated for it’s own good. The Imitation Game was okay but it was just another period-piece British guy who’s closet gay. Anyway, color me unimpressed.
