Saw it yesterday afternoon. I liked it a bit more than TCCTS, but after reading his post I agree with most of his points.

On one hand, Phoenix was of course amazing, the cinematography was phenomenal, and the seedy '80s Gotham vibe/production design was spot on and incredibly effective. I loved Phoenix's performance and I loved this world. But on the other hand... it was kind of a boring movie until the end?

Saw it tonight. Some of y'all way over-think things. This is a great movie. I can see where some would say the plot is "thin", but imo that's because it eschews a typical blockbuster-type plot structure. It meanders and takes its time, because the movie is driven by Joker's nonlinear emotional arc, not a traditional, market-tested-to-death, blockbuster-type plot. This movie is very creative, at times very brutal, and makes you laugh at things that you shouldn't - a true reflection of the Joker character. I would gladly watch this movie again.
