I'll be totally honest... I watched this film because of the Fallout boy album American Beauty/ American Psycho. Last year I watched American Beauty and so this year i decided to add American Psycho onto the list.
Both are very weird films. Kevin Spacey stars in American Beauty as a slightly perverted man that wants to sleep with his daughters friend and Christian Bale stars in American Psycho as the man that likes to kill people... especially women after having sex with them and filming it all.
I don't know what to make of this film. Christian Bale was magnificent as Patrick Bateman and played the psychopath very well... I would have believed that it was real if the case had not said Christian Bale on the front. Reese Witherspoon I didn't even notice in the film. I honestly can't remember who she played because i didn't recognise her at all... she was magnificent.
I wouldn't watch this film again... probably not ever because i remember it all. It's weird enough and in its own way disturbing enough for me to remember it and never want to watch it again. This is a personal thing and i'm sure that a lot of people like this film and would probably watch it more than once but for me... it's not my type of film and once was enough.
