An excellent and captivating film

Rating: 9/10 (15 January 2006)

This film is an interesting study in the progression of insanity. The guilt of causing an industrial accident makes main character Trevor Reznik's already unstable mind turn to paranoia. As the film progresses, it becomes apparent that the cause of his mental state goes further into the past than this traumatic event. It becomes more and more evident that some aspects of Trevor's life will turn out to be in his mind, before his mental deterioration draws to its inevitable conclusion.
With an excellent performance from Christian Bale as Trevor, this is definitely a must-see.
