My review on “American Psycho”

American Psycho (2000) - IMDb

American Psycho” is a movie directed by Mary Harron. It describes a bizarre concept of how an insecure and schizophrenic man, Patrick Bateman, who has almost never ending sick illusions about him murdering anyone he sees as better than him and for his sick and twisted sexual needs can be a wealthy investment banker. Him being in such a high position while he’s clearly sick and suffering from schizophrenia is just proof that big companies, like the one that Patrick Bateman worked at, clearly don’t care about who works for them, as long as they are making money.

The movie first shows Patrick, played by Christian Bale, as a psychopathic serial killer, but at the end we find out that he is just a wimp that is sick enough to imagine all the horrific things he does, but isn’t brave enough to actually go through with them.

Not all the people who saw the movie agree that Patrick Bateman isn’t a serial killer. Some think that he did kill all the people that were shown in the movie except Paul Allen. I don’t agree with that, if he did really kill them, then why would the bodies just disappear in one night?

Overall I really loved this movie and would strongly recommend it to everybody reading this who hasn’t already seen the movie.
