I went to see Joker. My opinion: a brilliantly made film, well-written and superbly directed.
It brings up brilliant points about elitism, mental health and social revolutions.
I can also see why some angry men have adopted the Joker as an incel symbol - incorrectly.

Yes, incel men will be drawn to Joker - because it will appeal to narcissists and delusions of grandeur. But I truly believe the film does not intend to glorify these things.
It's a great backstory to the Joker. But incel men are not nearly as complex or interesting.
Great film.

Side note: I was dubious about the film portraying the Joker in a sympathetic light. In my opinion, it doesn't.
I didn't feel sympathy... but at times I felt pity for the Joker. Subtle, but two different things.
