AGREE!!!

Joaquin Phoenix should have won a Second Oscar for his performance in either Gladiator or Walk The Line!!!

Her, Gladiator and Joker his best performances.

Respect for not going with the popular pick for number 1. His performance in the master is one of the best ones i have seen by any actor

The Master is also my nr. 1 pick, incredible performances all around in that movie

It’s been over three years since Mr. Phoenix won an Oscar for his impressive performance as the alternate Joker version.

Walk The Line is one of my favourite films. He was terrific as the late grate Johnny Cash.

I love Walk the Line, its a great movie.

There aren't many more versatile actors out there. Commodus and Napoleon really stand out to me.

No one ever talks about Reservation Road. Such an intense, fantastic movie. And Joaquin Phoenix nailed his role in that one. I wonder if I'm the only one who loves that movie so much?

I grew up with his roles from Space Camp and Russkies...but his Gladiator role was my favorite in his adulthood.

Her definitely top of my list. Followed by Joker and The Master. Top three top performance of acting that difficult to be matched by other actors.

Watched Napoleon last night in a Imax theater. There is a scene in which he holds his newborn son. You feel the unconditional love through his tears. He humanized the emperor.

More Joaquin. The best Hollywood actor for me. My favorite image is also the Master. And I love almost every image of him. Of the characters, I like the Abbot, Commodus and Joker the most

Oh yeah he nailed it as Joker. His performance gave me serious chills.

Phillip Seymour Hoffman is sorely missed. What a wonderful actor he was.

It could only be Top 20 for one of the greatest actors alive. Good balance of hits and deep-cuts.

I'll never forget leaving the cinema after Joker. Everyone was dead silent, trying to process what they had just seen. That's all thanks to his chilling performance.

Ok, obviously, his portrayal of the Joker was unique (and by far the most memorable part of a mediocre film about the Joker), but so were the performances of previous Joker actors who had already made that comic book character extremely popular. And in my humble opinion, none of them became the Joker to the degree that Heath Ledger did (and thank God they didn't, since Ledger couldn't escape the insanity of his character anymore and committed suicide 😰). ...Again, no disrespect to Phoenix whose Oscar I had demanded eversince his powerful portrayal of the ruthless Commodus in _Gladiator._I mean that was his big break and he scored landed every nomination out there right away! He also took my breath away in Walk The Line, The Master, Her, Mary Magdalene, Inherent Vice, and I can't wait to see his depiction of Napoleon Bonaparte. God, that dude is versatile!!

Joaquin Phoenix did an impressive on his performance as Arthur Fleck/Joker. ‘Joker’ is already my 2nd favorite live action DC movies of all time. ‘Joker’ won 2 Oscars, including “Best Actor.” I am so excited to see the sequel, starting in October 2024. 🤡

Great list, thank you. For me so far, the Master is his best performance. Joaquin is the greatest actor of his generation, IMO. So many other great choices in this list also.

my favorite is JOKER! XD he gave his mind, body heart and soul to this role, to honour heath ledgers performance :)

I loved his voice performance as Kenai from Disney's "Brother Bear"!

To the role that won Joaquin Phoenix the Oscar for Best Actor is the Role he’ll forever be remembered as his Best. JOKER 🃏!!!

I would t even say he’s remembered now for the joker, because he has so many great performances out there. Obviously it’s his most popular but even joker 2 will probably be more memorable since he’s singing again

His greatest performance wasn’t even on this list. What?!? His turn in I’M STILL HERE should have been number one because of the sheer dedication to the role. He made everyone think he went crazy and committed to the role publicly as well.

his role in the master is a master piece no doubt

Thanks WatchMojo for making this video about my celebrity crush. Personality-wise I'm like him. Also he's a great actor. 🎬🙆🏻‍♀️

SO sad for both Joaquin AND Heath Ledger too for that matter to be up against not only each other but Philip Seymour Hoffman for the Oscar back in 2006 ... all 3 of them deserved that Oscar!! And THEN to come up against Daniel Day-Lewis in 2012!!🤦🏻‍♀ I think just about any other year he would have won both those Oscars!!

Her, Walk the Line, and Joker are my top 3 of his.

I'm not sure what kind of KZread channel you do....but I like them!!!!

He is easily one of the best ever. I will always be excited for anything he does.

I don't have time to watch it now, but hey, if Gladiator isn't in here, I am not watching this! Phoenix should've won his first Oscar then, but like other (unique and unconventional) talents, he wasn't in the exclusive Academy club at that point. Four nominations, but wasn't until he played a big pop culture character that a dozen first-class actors had already made insanely popular (most notably the late, great Heath Ledger), which got him the long overdue recognition. Don't get me wrong, his Joker was excellent, but so were at least four others he had given before. I guess in Hollywood, you really get the most praise for the character/movie that sells the best to mainstream audiences. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Love him in Signs🔥

What is amazing is how many of his films I have not seen. I would rate Joker as his best. I would still give the edge to Health Ledger's Joker.

You forgot to mention Kenai in “Brother Bear”.

Oh, I love Joaquin Phoenix since ‘Sign’; ‘Gladiator’; and ‘Joker.’ 😃

His role in We Own The Night should have been on the list

What about his character from The Village, Lucius Hunt? 😮

I missed "Return to Paradiese"

Cmon cmon 😍

Hey, what about Brother Bear? He was the voice of Kenai.

Wheres Clay Pigeons?

Signs was such a good movie

Joaquin Phoenix needs to host SNL

The first thing I saw him in was To Die For. He completely stole that movie and it was easy to see that he would develope into a phenomenal actor.

Phoenix was really great as Kenai from Brother Bear! Why wasn't that character in this video?

Beau Is Afraid Is not only of Joaquin’s best, but it’s the probably the biggest challenge ever of his career!

Theodore Twombly is Phoenix best role because it played into the actors strength, awkwardness and soft voice.

8mm?

Wow I thought Joker would be the number one.

Joker was a Masterpiece

Nobody is perfect. Like him or not. Joaquin Phoenix is a good actor and a decent guy, indeed. 👍 While the new Napoleon movie may not have been the greatest, the storm of new American & British content on him here on KZread makes up for it 😂 Joaquin Phoenix was far too old to play Napoleon. How Ridley Scott and Joaquin Phoenix managed to get Napoleon so wrong despite literally having so much knowledge about him is insane. Napoleon, is the Successor of the French king Louis XVI and Louis, humiliated the British Empire in America and in Europe and handed the British their butts. The French defeated the British in America and gave the American Revolutions Victory over the British. That gave the American colonists Independence. And the Brit Ridley Scott hates that!! Napoleon review: Ridley Scott and Joaquin Phoenix Deliver a Film that works better as a comedy than a historical Epic.

Arthur Fleck wouldn't have gained infamy as Joker if he hadn’t declared open season on the talk show he appeared as a guest on.

Phoenix did a stellar job in the master but Hoffman was by far the best actor in the movie. RIP PSH.🙏❤

Joker. Not even close

People need to talk more about walk the line and the master. He should have won an Oscar for both

Napoleon, commodus and definitely joker are among his best

Joker more people should have took more seriously. Of course people did but after it came out I found people still going and being rude to me. I am blessed with so much kind people however. I pray those people will find God and be nice. I do not agree with violence which I know is in the movie but if we are not careful and mean someone dangerous could go on a mass shooting and WE DON'T WANT IT WE ARE TIRED OF INNOCENT LIVES TAKEN. We need to seriously be respectful of another and see people as they want to be seen. Ultimentaly we all need Jesus. Hopefully the new Joker will teach more people with them actually listening. And if your a Christian that is blocking people on social media who are nice to you or blocking on something else.... You need to get right with God.

Joker should be number one.
