The Machinist's Diet

Rating: 7/10 (17 April 2019)

Ok... this film is... unique.
Pros;

Christian Bale (As always) IS his character and truly devotes himself to the role of Trevor Reznik. Even his slim weight makes the viewer feel uneasy (My own mother couldn't watch scenes where he was shirtless).
Every other actor did a decent job and you could feel the different relationships Reznik Gad with the people.
The ending is really clever and ties up every single thread the film sets up prior. Even to simple props in set which all add up afterwards.

Cons;

Whilst The ending is great, the plot's buildup drags a LOT right until the last 5 minutes and it leaves the viewer confused throughout the majority of the film.

Verdict;
Without the strong buildup which could have made this film truly great, The Machinist is still a very thought provoking movie which shows the world the greatness that is Christian Bale's acting skills.
