Almost perfect conversion

Rating: 9/10 (19 September 2000)

Every once in a while a movie comes along, that gives you your faith back in the movie industry, and this is exactly one of those movies. Christian Bale is the PERFECT Patrick Bateman, and his ability to play a wide range of different styles is clearly displayed in this movie. This movie rates equally with the likes of "Seven" and "Usual Suspects" and you leave the cinema with the feeling that you have witnessed something unique in movie history. I rated this as a nine for its perfect mix of dark humor and superb acting. It really does the book credit! Even the filming is top quality, and the only setback in this movie, is that it ends. Fortunately only on the screen as it lasts very long in your head...
