Some really interesting themes here, explored in kind of a muddled, underwhelming way.
However, reading it was 110% worth it for the line.
Can I give 5 stars just to that one panel?

Instant classic, reinvented, just awesome storytelling with twists and a blood bath of a finish filled with memorable panels and quotes. A Batman that you can never forget

Meh.
Sure I like it.
I was just expecting more.
Don't get me wrong though, they did give you more... just not the more I was expecting.
I didn't like how the Joker was portayed here.
I loved him in Death of the Family.
I FELT HIM AS A MORE GROUNDED VILLAIN.
The Joker here felt like a cartoon.
I just didn't feel it.
Full reviewpossibly to follow.

Holy fuck this was a strong and horrifying culmination of events Scott Snyder has been building up to for years. Note that I've put it on my Horror bookshelf rather than Superheroes. Although it starts off with one of my favourite recurring storylines: Batman having to take down the Justice League! Once the mind-altering villain behind that Batman vs. JLA kickoff is revealed, Gotham is brought to a lower level of mayhem and sorrow than even Bane or Crane could ever manage.
I'm about to read the tie-in deluxe hardcover Joker: Endgame, and hoping it won't screw with my reading order or just amount to several repeats, but I just never want to stop reading Scott Snyder Batman books!

I'm really enjoying Scott Snyder's run on Batman. It's been, dare I say it, batshit insane.

The plot is overly recondite and unnecessarily difficult to follow. Occasionally the dialogue makes no sense at all. That being said, this is an excellent comic. Greg Capullo's pencils are immeasurably better than anything DC has published for years. I hate the Joker and would frankly be happy if the character were unofficially retired altogether. And still, in spite of myself, I loved this book. It was inexplicably compelling. It could have been a Bat-sterpiece for the ages, but instead it's just a damn good Batman story.
