Excellent!

I think this is the best adaptation of a Bret Eston Ellis's book (and maybe the most adaptable). This yuppie representation of a serial killer, is an unforgettable event and could be the best interpretation by Christian Bale. Christian Bale always build his body according to the role (you think Leonardo Di Caprio could look like that), you have to see "The Machinist" to confirm it, and then he returns to his original shape with Batman Begins, etc., but this is a very introspective job and you can tell how well he was communicating with his director, the one and only Mary Harron. Excellent!. You can tell how well she knew the story and how much she liked it.
