The Yin-Yang of American Psycho

Rating: Null/10 (16 January 2007)

It is nice to say that we are all of the same bio-heap. We come from nothing and go to nothing. Conclusion? Nothing. I have none of the material accoutrement's of a yuppie fight club member. Yes by all means it is profound to drive crazy and start fights. Another in the triumvirate of recursive movie-making :- American Psycho, Vanilla Sky and Fight Club. "The Sixth Sense"? Was that before or after Amer. Psycho? Never mind. Nothing matters in a phenomenology. Why not put the film in a blender and let a computer tape it back together in any computable random format. {{You see, True randomness is not computable, it is all an illusion -- DUH.}} Was it a dream or the computer generated dream of a dream? Which is worst or best matters not because they are all decomposed by their own colon bacteria. A thriving constellation of meaningless pop-culture references and "did your hear that" profundity. If it goes fast it must be profound because it went fast. And lets not forget the dissing of {{yuppie furniture}} and late {{corporate rock}} lyrics. This is the plight of my colon bacteria ending minute by minute. I am {{insert my profile name}}'s belated vegetarianism. I'll be having a gyro tonight. Does that include the flesh of dead mammals? I dunno. But of course I do. Ha Ha. So Surprise me - Surprise me. It's cool if said quickly and with earnest pluck of {{that blond dude from middle America}}. So surprise me (in italics this time... ) You didn't get the zen table thing? Yes your frat days were not for naught they were in fact as profound as the dot com bubble. {{What are YOU doing here? This is a frat house.}} Just sad the movie was all a dream. Or is that good it was all a dream? Good-bad. Bad-good. Your guess is as good as any other space monkey because it's all just a spinning blender of our own fat dissolving the grease on our skin. Add back the lye and you get soap. And back again. Get it now... Back to the yin-yang table.
Conclusion: I thought they might "have something" until the end, when I realized it was all one big {{large corporate clothing retailer}} commercial. {{But I knew they were running off the tracks by the "you wanna be a veterinarian" scene.}}
Rating: American Psycho. {{Like Am. Psycho - cannot be viewed twice; Once you realize that ATMs do not say "insert cat" and semicolons cannot be inserted in motion pictures.}}
But seriously folks the ending REALLY {{vacuum created with ...}}; A TOTAL COP-OUT... {{and is the reason de etre for this comment}}.
If you think "A Clockwork Orange" is deep and profound and not a silly movie based on a silly book that sounded like a good {{real horrorshow in me gullava}} idea for a book, then you might like this movie... If I was a sophomore in college again, then I might too.
