Good Thriller!

Rating: 7/10 (6 March 2012)

Christian Bale, Chloe Sevigny, Reese Witherspoon, Jared Leto, Samantha Mathis and Willem Dafoe star in this 2000 thriller based on the novel.
This takes place in the 1980's and Patrick Bateman (Bale) is a young, business exec who gets consumed with disgust towards people. Soon, he
goes on a killing spree starting with one of his colleagues, Paul Allen (Leto) who turns up missing. Dafoe plays, detective, Donald Kimball who investigates the case and starts questioning Patrick, Sevigny plays Patrick's naive secretary, Jean who grows close to him and starts to worry about him, Witherspoon plays Patrick's girlfriend, Evelyn, who doesn't really listen to him and Mathis plays her friend, Courteney whom Patrick is having an affair with. Soon, Patrick becomes unsure if the murders really happen or if he imagines them. This is a good thriller with some dark humor and Bale is great in it. I recommend this.
