Trust nothing. Joker is the ultimate unreliable narrator.
It's like he said in The Killing Joke: "Something like that happened to me, you know... I'm not exactly sure what it was. Sometimes I remember it one way, sometimes another... If I'm going to have a past, I prefer it to be multiple choice!" https://i.imgur.com/nlPRsm6.jpg

Movie was weird. Mostly good. Performances were all great, but the score was the best part. Cinematography was solid so the flick LOOKED really impressive.
Really didn't care for the depictions of mental illness and how ridiculous that was. Not sure how to feel about the flick trying to get me to sympathize with someone who becomes a mass-murderer.
Really enjoyed the scene where he reads his mom's case file in the stairwell of the hospital. Probably the best acting in the whole movie.
But some people calling it the greatest flick with some of the most important cinematic moments in history gives me second-hand embarrassment .
That isn't anything new. Remember when The Dark Knight came out and for a good length of time people were convinced it was the best movie ever made and Ledger's performance was the pinnacle of acting? Then it died down when the high wore off and people came back to reality.
