Its a character study.An amazing performance by Joaquin Phoenix, i knew he was a force from Gladiator.
I appreciated the film but i gotta say i was bit bored and underwhelmed.
I didn't think it would be an action film. The movie met my expectations... all bit too well.Its a character study.
But the studio wanted to get rich so they promoted it as an action film.
Ripoff of taxi driver? I could see that.I hate the idea of this movie:
- It's a ripoff of Taxi Driver
- It's supposed to be a one-off unrelated to anything else
- If it's a huge hit,DC will retcon the entire universe to fit the story
- If it's a flop the whole movie doesn't matter, so what's the point?
So what you're saying is, you weren't.... entertained?Ugh .. "Phoenix" was pretty darn mediocre in gladiator. I mean, i couldn't tell if he was any good because his character was ridiculous. That whole film needs to go away.
