LOS ANGELES - There are no capes, no special powers and no battles between good and evil in the new “Joker” movie, whose portrayal of the most famous villain in comic book history is the most chilling twist on the character in 50 years.

“It’s barely the same character,” said Matthew Belloni, editorial director of the Hollywood Reporter. “I think the Joker has reflected the times in which he is portrayed.” “The new Joker is a plunge into nihilism. There is no redemption at all. It is a lot grimmer to watch than even Heath Ledger’s Joker in ‘The Dark Knight’,” said David Cross, an associate editor at pop culture website Den of Geek.

In 1989, Jack Nicholson brought his edgy, maniacal touch to the character in the “Batman” movie but was still largely a prankster. “Batman gets to stop him in the end. He does blow up a hospital but he never took it to a truly irredeemable place,” added Cross.
