Superb

Rating: 9/10 (18 June 2019)

Never has a set of mind, a feeling of guilt and suffering been depicted in such a brilliant art form as Brad Anderson has done here with The Machinist. This deeply troubling and disturbing movie covers all nightmares of a confused and paranoid mind, in such a way that it is unmissable. The tone and suspense captures the audiences attention from the moment it begins as you live inside the mind of Trevor Reznik who is dealing with a guilty conscience and a dark secret. The way this story is told with every shot so detailed, every second gives a clue and speaks volumes. An incredible performance by Christian Bale makes for one of the most fantastic artistic movies of all time. Superb.
