    Great Movie with a Different Perspective

    This is the greatest "Batman" movie that you've never heard of. Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, Christian Bale, and Jack Nicholson are the usual stars of Batman movies. Though Dylan Hobbs' parents are the only ones who have heard of Dylan Hobbs, his performance is easily in the top 3 of all Batman movies. This movie offers a unique perspective of Batman's most notorious villain. Joker Rising has several powerful and intense scenes that changes the way you view the Joker forever.

    Stunning adaptation.

    Going well beyond the standards of fan films Joker rising ascends to dizzying Heights. The film is low budget however highly effective at delivering character beats and pathos at every turn. The only issue is sound quality however this is not enough of an issue to derail what is easily one of the best Joker adaptations in film history.

    Several of the actors are noteworthy however no one can touch the prowess of Dylan Hobbs as the joker. Playing as joker's former self initially who is seemingly emotionally disconnected from the world around him Hobbs is able to effectively play a stone cold psychopath by the end of the film after delivering one of the best and most shocking emotional scenes put to film.

    Highly recommended.

    This movie was fantastic

    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.

    First review ever

    Shockingly bad I watch fan films to support fan films but this was tedious wooden and a country mile from the mark joker at the end was the only saving grace watch predator crusades much better fan film

    Best Fan Film I've Ever seen

    When i stumbled on this i wasn't expecting much, but as far as fan films go this is one of the best around if not the best (imo at least). Some great lines and solid acting(for the most part anyway)combined with a very Tarantino-esque soundtrack and over all gritty feel make this a must watch for joker fans. There are loads of brilliant references to the dark knight which put a smile on my face(see what i did there haha...okay i'll get my coat) It was really well shot and filmed my only problem was palm trees showing up in the background in some early scenes which kind of broke the atmosphere slightly but other than that it was great. For $3000 it's unbelievable what this production has achieved do yourself a favor and give it a watch. i eagerly await the sequels.
