No, the book is hilarious. Bale overplays the smarminess so that Bateman seems less like an entitled, vacant douchebag and more like a spastic used car salesman.

I was already up and standing in the back of the theater by the end saying "if this isn't the last goddamn scene, I'm walking" despite the fact I never walk out of films- but it was the last scene, so I got all the way through that turd.

I like the Greenaway stuff where he's basically cataloguing something like "The Falls", "Death in the Seine" or even "26 Bathrooms". Most of the narrative features are unwatchable, except The Pillow Book, which at least is beautiful and has a reasonable ending.

I don't think there ever was a "funny when no one knew what it was" unless you saw it at a festival or something. If you remember, the original ad campaign was very heavy-handed in selling it as the next big quirky thing all your friends would be talking about. And those ads were absolutely everywhere. The movie-going…

I love Reese Witherspoon's line reading of "I get claustrophobic sucking strange dicks." She really deserved that Oscar.

First the Nazis destroy his family, then the Manson Family destroys his family. I'm not saying this should excuse his actions, but having personal experience with some of the biggest monsters of the 20th century destroying your life has to fuck you up a little bit.

All these comments seem to overlook how funny the film is. Ruth Gordon delivers one of the best comedic performances in film (just watching her crassly eat is funny) - and this is in the middle of a horror film!

Humpday was a weird experience for me. I was checking out his films because he used to come into the little neighborhood video store I worked at years ago in Austin. He was really cute and I wanted to hit on him, but didn't know if he was gay or straight or what. So I would chat him up whenever possible and hit on him…
