American Psycho Audience Reviews

Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?
Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Verity Robins Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
thomasjay-52277 A great and miticuloys look at the life of a highly professional serial killer. Set in the 90's we watch as a frequent murderer plots and executed his plans on multiple occasions plus everything in between. A simple concept that's executed perfectly with some stunning visual moments and an outstanding performance from Christian Bale (arguably his best) 'American Psychi' has gained its classic status for good reason, worth a watch
ultrasween Bret Easton Ellis' haunting and controversial 1991 novel about a psychotic business executive who specializes in "Murders and Executions" is brought to life with some trimming here and there, most likely to avert a high rating and to not displease viewers with uncut visual depictions of the already graphic novel. Christian Bale gives a stellar performance as the maniacal Patrick Bateman which absorbs the viewer into his world of delusions, stained sheets and prostitutes. The supporting cast is great as they reflect upon Bateman's ever crumbling façade. S
Majikat In a material world, where everything can be bought and ego drives humans to be disconnected and competitive, where drugs no longer reach that high and human life has little value, the disguise is slipping and the hunger for the thrill is at it's peak. It's not a typical serial killer film, it's quirky, almost arty and is probably appreciated more on its second viewing.
grantss Superb parady of the world of pretentious yuppies, and the pressures and effects of consumerism and having to maintain appearances. Based on the book by Bret Easton Ellis, it is fiendishly funny at times, yet simultaneously very realistic. Great acting by Christian Bale, in one of his first major roles.
