Hey! Have you watched any new movies lately?
No, I haven't. But we will be going to the movies this weekend! Any suggestions?
Well, we saw the Addams Family and Joker within the past 2 weeks. Both were pretty good, but Joker....ohh that will keep you at the edge of your seat.
How so?
Well, I don't want to ruin it for you. But just to get you thinking...it depicts our current social system.
So you liked the movie?
I did. Although it was a very interesting and creepy way to convey what is going on in today's world, it makes a lot of sense.
I have heard both good and bad about it.
Well, I think it's really because currently there have been so many things going on, mass shootings, human trafficking, etc... And really, the movie vaguely represents today's issues.
Yeah. I watched the news and saw an incident where a man in the theater was basically imitating Joker, and it scared the rest of the viewers, so he was escorted out of the theater.
Yes. With all the issues going on today, the movie does a great job at showing the mental issues that people go through, and how the social norms can affect an individual.
Well, I guess we know what we will be watching.
Yes...I don't doubt you'd be able to compare it to what is going on in today's world.
What would you rate it?
An 8- Only because Joker was to realisitic...I now look each individual I pass in the eye!
Here we go.
