But the sequel sort of ruins it for me. Should’ve known better.

Joker was shot entirely on digital with a variety of high-res Arri Alexa cameras, some as high as 5.1K (5120x2880), and finished at a true 4K digital intermediate. This means that Warner Bros.' 4K disc is a near-perfect representation of the film and, as such, boasts an extremely detailed and impressive 2160p transfer that gets the added boost of HDR color enhancement. While the separate Blu-ray edition is by no means a distant second, this disc clearly offers the tighter image in direct comparison and stands as one of the format's best-looking non-film releases to date. Though somewhat desaturated by design, Joker absolutely pops with color in all the right places: warm era-specific interior decorations (Murray Franklin's set is a particular standout), moody lighting, costume designs, and Arthur Fleck's clown makeup stand out strongly among the colder and more muted color choices that dominate most backgrounds. High Dynamic Range contributes to the transfer's most impressive color-related moments, from an early chase sequence to a deadly subway encounter and its immediate aftermath. Even if your current 4K television is not equipped to decode the full HDR10 signal, you will notice an obvious difference when compared to the Blu-ray's SDR image. Of course, not all of Joker's visual strengths are color-related. Textures and fine detail are also extremely refined from start to finish, from those aforementioned costume designs to skin pores and caked-on clown makeup. While some of the perceived detail has been artificially produced via a fine grain filter over the digital image, it's a convincing formula that gives Joker an unusually film-like appearance. Modest to strong depth is achieved with various focal techniques, while black levels and shadow detail are both very stable with absolutely no flagrant signs of banding or compression artifacts. Warner Bros.' Blu-ray -- even with its surprisingly low bit rate -- received top marks in the video department, so it's no surprise that the 4K's much heftier 2160p transfer proportionally earns perfect scores by its own rating scale. This is simply a top-tier disc that likely rivals even the best theatrical experience just a few short months ago.

I got the item for a great deal, and its one of my favorite movies as of right now.

Joaquin phoenix did a superb job with the joker!!! He definitely took his role to heart!!!

One of the last, great character-driven films. Take note, Marvel: this is how you make good comic book films.

I would argue this is one of the best Joker acting second only to the dark knight.

Love this movie very deep and complex sad but also epic better than The Batman

Great 4k and great movie. Physical media is good…digital and streaming bad!

Great movie and at the best price. I got this movie along with a few others at a very cheap price.

A movie that defies expectations. A most excellent performance by Joaquin Phoenix. Well worth a second or third viewing.

Not a star rating for the movie, but the 4k disc. Looks and sounds great!

I have loved this movie when I first saw it. So I decided to get it from Best Buy.

Joker 2019 is perhaps one of Pheonix's best roles of his career. Those who have casted this movie need to be commended for their efforts. I believe this because as the title says, this movie is quite the masterpiece imho. I'm also hoping that Hollywood finally recognizes this, and that Pheonix wins an Oscar or something for his role as a Joker that is different, but quite familiar. He has all of the maniacal elements of a crazy Joker, but it is told in such a way that one can kind of feel sorry for him. Without given too much away for those who have not seen it yet, let's just say he gets more insane as the story unfolds. But the reason behind his insanity in the story, and is quite different than those in the past. I haven't read too many comics with the joker, but Pheonix's performance in this film, is one of the best of this generation. This Bluray+4K set is perfect for anyone's collection, and for those who want to own a piece of theatrical brilliance. Kudos to Best Buy for having a special edition of this great film.

Great movie. Plot was great. Interesting twist. Loved it.
