Incredibly original and engrossing psychological drama

Rating: 9/10 (7 February 2016)

Incredibly original and engrossing psychological drama. Very clever and ultimately very emotional. The only negatives would be that some of the clues are a bit too obvious, though a few smokescreens are thrown up to attempt to disguise them.
Superb performance by Christian Bale. He clearly threw himself into the role, losing an incredible amount of weight to look the part (similar to what he would later do for Rescue Dawn). The only problem with casting him is that the plot has similarities to American Psycho, which he starred in, so this seems like a sequel or a remake.
Good support from Jennifer Jason Leigh.
