The buzz has been building since the Venice film festival and now it’s finally here: JOKER!
This week Joe and Michael dive headfirst into the zeitgeist to bring you their thoughts on what is proving to be a very divisive film. It scored lots of accolades, including an 8 minute standing ovation in Venice, but now it’s out and people either seem to love it or hate.
Well, most people.
And, big surprise, Joe and Michael disagree.
Have you seen it? What did you think? Listen to the discussion then hit us up with your thoughts on the film. Did we miss the mark? Was there something we neglected to mention? Did you think it was as violent as people say?
Have a listen and let us know what YOU think.

Gritty. Dark. Tragic. Human. Train Wreck. A era-culture piece about perpetual societal violence unraveling like tightly wound barbed-wire. The deconstruction of a man and his psyche into madness. Like watching the fuse of a stick of dynamite slowly burn.
Had elements of Heath Ledger, Jarred Leto, but ALL Joaquin. Reminded me a little of Frank Miller’s take on Bullseye. And an eerie Kubrick feel with the sound.
Joaquin Phoenix — outstanding performance.
