  Me: Do you like Mary Harron’s adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis’ American Psycho?

  Snooty Film Analyst: It’s OK.

  Me: The later scenes are a little too abstract for my tastes, but when Bateman’s monologuing carries on throughout all 102 minutes, I think it really comes into its own, commercially and artistically. The whole film has a clear, crisp look, and an old sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives Andrzej Sekula’s cinematography a big boost. Mary Harron's been compared to David Fincher in the final scenes, but I think Mary has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humour.

  Snooty Film Analyst: Hey, Simon.

  Me: Yes, Analyst?

  Snooty Film Analyst: Why are their notes scattered around the place concerning theories…

  patrick bateman’s horrified reaction when he saw his collague’s business card and said “it even has a watermark” was the most dramatic moment in cinematic history

  Sorry about the length in advance.

  I watched this film a few years ago and thought, “I got it. He really isn’t Patrick Bateman. Big whoop.” I return to this and realize how little I knew. American Psycho is a masterpiece. It examines American society (specifically 80s Wall Street yuppies) in the most uproarious and horrific light possible. It’s dark and sardonic, but thoroughly entertaining. I shouldn’t be laughing at someone being killed or a related comment, but it absolutely slayed me. Bale is the highlight, but its overall craftsmanship and themes should be commended as much.

  There are two BIG questions people ask about American Psycho
  1. Did Patrick Bateman really exist?
  2. Did Patrick Bateman or whoever Bateman…
