movie review

I feel a bit drained after being abused by watching the movie "American
Psycho."
I had avoided this movie for 8 years, but it stars Christian Bale, and
curiosity got the better of me.

I played 10 minutes of the writer/director's commentary, after seeing the
movie. The woman that made the film saw it as a combination comedy and
horror picture. Her objective was to make fun of finer dining in the
1980s, and men from that era who are represented as being interchangeable.

There needs to be a word like misogynist that applies to women who hate men.

The film was an amazing waste of studio money and acting talent.

I suppose I should be grateful that the movie doesn't even end as an
effective insult to psychotics.

crap crap crap

Its supposed to be an artsie fartsie film. I haven't seen it though.

The book is super gory, much more so than the film. I thought the film
was funny in parts, but not as good as the book.

Saw it in 2000 in south africa.
In a drive-in movie theatre.

It kind of depressed me and spoiled my evening out.

I agree, it was crap crap crap.

I didn't know there was a book.

The books behind the movies "Needful Things" and "The Hunger"
weren't anywhere near as good as the movies. In the book "The Hunger",
Dr. Sarah Roberts ended up disasterously, whereas in the movie Sarah
ended up victoriously on top, like there might be a part two with her
starring in it.
Dr. Sarah Roberts was played by Susan Sarandon. When Susan
Sarandon came to my home town to play in "The Witches of Eastwick", she
came at lunch to where I always got lunch. I was able to ask her, "Are
you going to star in "The Hunger II"?" She turned as red as a beet and
couldn't answer but went on to something else. Can you guess why?
When the movies that Susan Sarandon played in are listed, like in
a Sunday newspaper magazine, "The Hunger" is never listed.
"The Hunger" postuated a twin human race with incredible
characteristics. This, of course, is an exaggeration. Cro Magnon
actually still exist. All Cro Magnon males are Double Y's. It is harder
to detect the Cro Magnon females. In the Bible Cro Magnons were called
the Anakim.
Cro Magnons always had brain regenertion such that Cro Magnons
dying "arbitrary" deaths often crawled right back up out of their
graves. The discussions of Cro Magnons and the mystery of the "missing
link", that were commonly heard in science and ancient history classes,
has been suppressed to permit the genocide of the Cro Magnon people.
See http://www.voy.com/186699/ about the truth of the Cro Magnon
"sub-species".
