You won't be disappointed jim, great looking and sounding disc.A must for me! The existing UK bluray was generally seen as the best available until now and I suspect Cas is referring to the ancient poor US bluray in the review?
Anyway Im sure this disc is a big improvement and Ill be buying it shortly.
I thought it was written by Bret Easton Ellis - unless you mean script/screen writer?...a lot of folks have a surprised look when they find out it was actually written by a woman.
This film made Bale a superstar like Cage in Leaving Las Vegas, a lot of folks have a surprised look when they find out it was actually written by a woman.
His a complete psycho and the film has stood the test of time, have this in my Apple library and pleasure to watch so many years on.
In my top ten any day of the year, you can never get bored with it.
*I have to return some videotapes*
I'm trying not to give any spoilers away buddy. I understand the ending..Ah....but is he a complete psycho? Watch the film again...
I need to watch it again lolI thought it was written by Bret Easton Ellis - unless you mean script/screen writer?
Anyway, I watched this years ago and was a little underwhelmed. I might have to go back and give it another go - perhaps it was because the book was so disturbing.

Yeah it kinda put me in a dark trance. I think one day someone will put it on film, I love the adaptation and this version but a lot was left out (understandably).The book is really disturbing and I honestly don't recommend it to anyone unless you know what you are letting yourself in for! I found it difficult to put down...but had some crazy dreams/nightmares at the time not helped by medication I was taken at that particular time! True story. I will read it again at some point but Ill be ready for it this time!
I must read this book. Then.Yeah it kinda put me in a dark trance. I think one someone will put it on film, I love the adaptation and this version but a lot was left out (understandably).
You'll soon find out why the film is a bit different...I must read this book. Then.
Is there a slipcover with the UK one? I prefer the UK art to the US.You won't be disappointed jim, great looking and sounding disc.

go all ninjaDon't blame me if you get disturbed!
All the above was quoted in the High-Def Digest review of American Psycho. Did you write that review?Through it all, Christian Bale delivers the performance that arguably helped make his career what it is today (Reign of Fire notwithstanding). True, he didn't don the cape and cowl for a few years after this film's premiere, but one can't help look at his Patrick Bateman and see a little bit of his future Bruce Wayne sitting there. Like any of his roles, he gave himself physically and mentally to the part and it shows. His maniacal energy and commitment to the part are what keeps the film alive and I can't imagine what this film would have been without him. Considering DiCaprio almost snapped the role, American Psycho could have been a very different film, and not necessarily one for the better. This Psycho may be crazy, but it's a hell of a good time. Just don't make the mistake of grabbing a copy of American Psycho 2, you need that in your life about as much as Paul Allen needs an ax.
