Absolutely brilliant

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

SPOILERS! Joker Rising is a very creative, brilliant and powerful film. Although it's loosely based on the comics, they somehow made the characters fit into the story line, and was just brilliant. The Joker was awesome, I liked how they made their own origin story for The Dark Knight's Joker, and it was absolutely brilliant! I really liked Harley too, although IMO they should've made her name Harleen since that's her real name, but it's just a minor issue, other than that, she was great. One very powerful scene was at the end when Cyrus/Joker cries and has flashbacks of Harley, made me think of how much he has changed from the beginning. The shots were great, capturing the action and emotion. I give this movie a 10/10, was absolutely amazing, one of the best movies I've ever seen!

When I came upon this film on Youtube, I played it with the intent of using it as background noise while I worked on some home projects. It didn't take long before I set my projects aside to give the film my full attention.What you have in Joker Rising is a production created with sheer talent and imagination. On a shoe string budget of $3000, this film lacked the over the top special effects and over paid actors of the Hollywood Batman films. However, what it did have was solid performances from actors who deserve far more recognition than they will probably ever get, a story of characters who you will actually care about, and an overall production value that far exceeds it's budget.Whether you're a Batman fan or not doesn't really matter. I would suggest you watch this film.

For a super low budget I was expecting another movie I watched for about 20 minutes and then stopped watching because it was so bad. This movie on the other hand was better than some (to be unnamed) large budget, big studio productions. This movie had very good acting, very good filming, and a story that should have been picked up by Warner Brothers to make into a large budget movie. This movie is a must watch for Batman fans and even people who like to watch comic book movies. Harley Quinn is in this movie too. It brings some perspective on how she came into the Joker's life and changed him in such a way that he has become the villain that we love today. Watch, watch watch this movie and then hope that they make more with Warner Brothers' help.

I have watched this film many times and each time I appreciate something new about it, realizing just how much thought and effort went into it. I absolutely love the creativity in changing up some of the traditional Batman trappings, beginning with the Joker's past itself, making for a more believable and relative experience. The soundtrack is engaging and well put together with the various sequences. The movie as a whole and especially the ending is very, very powerful. Thank you to all responsible for this masterpiece. I look forward with great anticipation the sequels said to be in production. You can count on my support and hope you get all that you need to make it all happen! Thank you for sharing your life and dreams with all of us so openly.
