Top notch performances from the entire cast never allowing a dull moment to tear you away from the madness underneath.

Hailed as an inspired satirical adaptation of a ghastly book, American Psycho turns out to be an incoherent and distasteful story about a group of people so rarified—rich young singles enjoying the pleasures of the Reagan era in New…

An excellent film in every aspect, American Psycho is a must watch.

Exciting, Thrilling and mischievous! Christian Bale is absolutely demented and insane in this life of a psycho. This has to be one Bale's best if not his best performance. And a surprising delight to see William Defoe in such a random…

Very creepy, and even more, very unbelievable.

I remember taking about 2 years to slog my way through the book then being blown away that they made such a good movie out of it.

Wonder where all the past comments and quotes have gone? Can't recall exactly what I had written on the film that was first released in 2000, but enjoyed the unusual premise well enough to seek out the 2002 spin off American Psycho 2.

A great, great movie, a personal favorite.

Back in the early 90's, I read Bret Easton Ellis' novel of this name. It didn't seem to be very memorable, so I passed on looking at this item - until now. The movie comes across somewhat better than the novel. It would have been even…

Wealthy businessman Patrick Batman embodies the American dream to perfection. A shameless materialist obsessed with every aspect of himself from his dinner reservations to choice of fine suits to his nuanced understanding of commercial pop…

I love this movie, it's one of my favorites. The juxtaposition of Bateman's dorky "yuppieness" and his psychotic tendencies make me laugh and I loved this movie so much that I read the book. I've rewatched it maybe 3 times, let alone the…

Based on a bad novel, this flick turns out a meaninglessly violent and mad piece of junk. I doubt about the director's sense of choosing a novel for filmmaking. Even a good director could NOT make a good film from a bad script based on a…

Based on the truly gruesome novel of the same name (written back in 1991 by Brett Easton Ellis) - This decidedly weak and flimsy screen adaptation of "American Psycho" certainly didn't come even close to doing the horrific book justice.…

Patrick Bateman: In '87, Huey released this, Fore, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's…
