Both of us absolutely loved it, it's really brilliant. I can definitely see all of the Scorcese influence in this, it's like King of Comedy (De Niro's character in this could easily have been modern-day Rupert Pupkin!) meets Taxi Driver meets some sort of more unsettling, psychological horror. Phenomenal performance by Phoenix (as usual). It was everything I hoped and MORE!
Probably the best comic book or "superhero movie" (I use that term extremely loosely for this) ever.

I'm still haunted by his performance. It was so brilliant. Really something special. I hope he gets that Oscar.
