AMERICAN PSYCHO
(Nth Viewing)

Patrick Bateman, lives Wall Street by day and his nights are spent in ways impossible to fathom. Christian Bale plays this soul-less, modern monster whose zealous materialism and piercing envy fuels his homicidal activities.

Christian Bale continues to impress me and I think he's one of the best actors on the rise today. The only movie of his that I can say was bad was HARSH TIMES. I would say either this or THE PRESTIGE is his best film, both in part due to his villainous savvy that he displays. Truly, he was the showstopper of the film with his eradicate behavior, inappropriate musical history lessons at times, and dark humor. I'm a huge fan of Willem Dafoe and even though he wasn't used much, Bale was able to carry the film by himself.
