Cut Classic!

Rating: 10/10 (6 November 2000)

I am being serious or should I say serial when i say that `American Psycho' will be one of the best films of the year. Oh my christ! I almost forgot- It also has one of the best acting performances of the year from Christian Bale. This dark, but yet, brilliant film is about an 80's yuppie who moonlights as a disturbed serial killer. Bale's star-breaking performance should ring bells to oscar voters when they decide the best actor nominees. Director Mary Harron's unique style of craftsmanship was right-on. Also, you will not hear a more creative screenplay in a film this year  especially in the scenes when Bale's character is describing his version of 80's musicians societal insights as he is nonchalantly murdering and seducing his preys. The `hip to be square' scene is one of the best of the year- so spread the news. Hopefully, I have said enough to have `psyched' you up to go watch this flawless film. ***** Excellent
