There's really no shock value type of plot points. A couple that could be read into in terms of DC lore, but if you were coming into this as an alien watching your first human movie, it would be pretty straight forward.

It's a character study. Phoenix is great in it. To show exactly how good, I would say if a lesser actor played the part there would be no Oscar noms for this film. It's that much of a quality bump.

It's fairly depressing at times.
