Hey, how are you? Wow, I just saw "The Joker." Have you seen it?
No, I haven't yet. Was it good?
Wow, yeah, it was amazing. It was dark and eerily, but just really well done.
Yeah, I heard it's Oscar worthy and Phoenix did a great job acting.
Oh yeah. The Joker is a lot different than the other Gotham stories. It's not really a hero story, but a man on a path of pain and harming himself.
Yeah, I've heard that. I've heard a lot of people say it's more a mental health story than a superhero flick.
Oh yes, for sure. It really gave some strong emotions and I felt sorry for the Joker for the hard life he's had. It made me really think you never know what others are going through.
How was the action?
It was really violent and brutal. There were scenes that I flinched, such as child abuse and times he was beaten. It was really dark and at times, sad and depressing.
It sounds pretty haunting. Do you think Batman fans would like it?
I honestly think everyone would love this flick, even if you aren't a Batman fan. I just felt for the lead character- he's a bad dude on the surface, but I understand how he just snapped when his life has been so hard. All that trauma scarred him.
Wow, that movie sounds awesome. I need to see it this weekend. Have you seen any other good movies recently?
Yes, I also saw Malificient: Mistress of Evil, this weekend with my thirteen year old daughter.
Oh nice, how was that? I loved the first one- how was this?
It was really good. I just love the Malificient character- she's so evil, but just plays that so well. She's the perfect Disney villain. This also was spooky and had just enough action to keep the audience engaged.
That sounds good. I love family friendly films that I can take my kids to see.
Me too, this was very family friendly and appropriate. It had a nice touching ending too, which makes me feel good. Epic conclusion endings are the best.
How were the special effects and acting?
Both amazing! The visual effects and cinematography were top notch. Also, Angelina Jolie is just perfect playing the role of a strong, powerful woman. I loved taking my daughter to see it!
You convinced me. I'll definitely have to take the family out for an outing to see that one.
