Biting Satire with a bit of surreal bloody mayhem

Rating: Null/10 (4 November 2000)

**SPOILERS** **SPOILERS** American Psycho is a film that breaks the boundaries of what is considered funny, grotesque, absurd, satire, horror films and even reality. This movie will piss you off if you can't handle being confused or provoked into actually using your brain
SPOILER ALERT!!!!
I found this film to be mind-bending in a way I have not seen since A Clockwork Orange. In the end you are left wondering what the hell just happened and as your brain tries to sort things out, you understand that Patrick Bateman may, in fact, not even exist. There are hints throughout this rorsharch test of a film that can and will lead you to many different conclusions about whether or not any of the scenes depicted in the movie actually happened. As disturbed as I was seeing this the first time, the second time It actually became, in Bateman's words, "A laugh riot." Weather this indicates frightening parallels between humor and the grotesque in my mind or in just the movie is just one of the questions that this film will raise in anyone who takes the time to think on it. 81/2 out of 10
