I love this movie, it's absolutely amazing. It goes well with my dark sense of humor and Christian Bale is f*cking sexy in all his homicidal appeal. I also like saying "I have to go return some video tapes". It's pretty much become my code phrase for when I'm getting really ticked off at work and only s few people get my reference, unfortunately. I love this movie.

I have it 3 stars only because I'm married and the only person I want to look at is my wife and secondary I don't need to see Christian Bale's butt showing!! I love most of the scenes and it does keep you guessing even after the movies over.

Come see American Psycho the Musical!!!

This movie was so good and kept me on the edge of my seat!

This movie is an absolute masterpiece in so many ways. It is an absolutely brilliant satire of late 80's yuppie culture - one that is not only deeply disturbing, but also darkly hilarious, uncommonly perceptive, has an impeccable eye for detail, contains flawless acting (particularly from Christian Bale, who is a revelation here), and is imminently quotable ("I have to return some video tapes", "Because I...just...want...to fit in..", etc...). It also expertly depicts the study of a man who is deluded and clearly losing his grasp on reality. I also loved how it portrayed the young 80's Wall Street set as so generically interchangeable that both they they themselves and the cops that later got involved with this group had trouble telling many of them apart. There is so much more that I could praise about this film, but I'll run out of space. I'll just advice you this: Pay not attention to the 1 and 2 star reviewers. Those calling it "boring" (those parts are essential to highlight the superficial banality of Bateman and Co's world) or who claim to not understand it I feel aren't meant to be the film's intended audience in the first place. The only legitamite reason I can think to steer clear is if you are severely offended by violence against women (and I am a female). It is an excellent adaptation of the book and an excellent film. I'd call it pretty close to perfection...kinda like the Sea Urchin Cerviche at Dorsia...

The movie was pretty good! And the main character has a really nice butt ladies!!!! Which is a plus

Check em

Looks all screwed up and sick.its pebbly awesome:)

Easily one of the sickest films I have ever seen. A waste of talent and time.

Only reason this is rated so good is because they're scared this guy actually exists and will kill them other wise.

If you're intelligent you'll like this movie. If you're stupid you won't like this movie.

This movie is not for everyone, but if you step back and admire the breakdown of the songs, the times we wanted to shut someone up and what we were thinking, but never acted on it. The difference here is he does. Lol.

Amazing!

Jared Leto... why????

This movie is 5 stars through and through.

come on guys that was awful. don't sell the unrated version as if it is the "un rated" version. that was deeply censored way worse than than book, in an unintended way. i love iTunes; don't make me lose faith. don't try to seem like you are selling something closer to the book, like in this case.

The movie was really good, I kinda expected more. But overall this a great film. It really makes you think...

Perfect balance of comedy and horror. Christian Bale plays his character perfect.

😞

Really good acting especially christian bale but it was just rlly messed up wut happns n all n kinda strange...n i hav no problem watchn tha saw movies n chucky etc. but this was just different idk c it if u want but honestly it kinda scarred me

Way better than the dark night lol

I have watched this movie over 25 times now and I could watch it another 25 times. Christian bale's defining role in my opinion. If I had one word to describe this movies it'd be brilliant. A must watch!

Why only to rent and not available to buy this CLASSIC. Better, but more horrific and 'relatable(?), than Falling Down. -Ish.

it's just one of those films unlike any other .. the year, 1987, manhattan island, new york, there walks a demon in a yuppie's skin, replete with 'valentino couture' suits, to blend in on wall street, 'jean paul gaultier' overnight bags for hiding bodies and 'oliver peoples' glasses so the detective mistakes you for the next guy .. Patrick Bateman speaks as if he's reading the cool 'quote' of the day in every sentence, choosing from a billboard of quotes in his head, everything out of his mouth is some current phrase and colloquialism of only the coolest, hippest regard .. it's this farce within which the 'american psycho' can communicate with 'real' people .. his performance is almost self-aware in a way, not quite breaking the fourth wall, but i feel in on the joke .. it's when Bale starts speaking about music while listening to it, that some of the most memorable parts of the movie derive, the balance between music, narration, and death, perfectly balanced .. Bateman gives a second-by-second review of the song or album, with lush, spot on descriptions rambling about production values and artistic idiosyncrasies .. Bateman's always under cover, speaking of fashion and manners and other people's itinerary's like he's a goddamn library of all things 80s, and you know what? it works. it works so well that this is one of the most haunting portraits of america and her people because by watching this film, you gaze upon the american dream, and wonder of the cost, because maybe this really isn't as metaphorical as it seems, because something feels quite immediate about the reflection of an america not too far off ..

And not a terrible actor...poor dog. He is a sick perv and if you like that watch it

this was the first slasher movie i've ever seen. it was nuts! the ending confused me. but it was all good. but the part where he looks at the screen and it says feed me the stray cat. i found that funny. who ever reads this buy it. its really good. and be sure to buy these other great horror movies on i-tunes: the thing (1982), the thing (2011), resident evil, ailen, aliens, and sleepy hollow. hope you enjoy these.

I did not get this at all. I have seen alot of horror and this movie did not do much for me. The ending was anti-climatic.

Why am I seeing bad reviews for this awesome movie? What the hell has happened to our generation? People must not like good movies anymore!!! It's a classic movie. Also, even though iTunes doesn't have it, I recommend "Serial Mom," another movie critics have bashed on which is one of my personal favorites. Okay, so what are you doing? Stop reading and go watch both of these movies ALREADY!!!

Horrifically funny. Highly recommend for some laughs!

This movie was definitely one of the best movies ever made. It is a brilliant dark comedy with great acting. The whole cast was terrific, especially Bale. Bale's performance made me want to go watch and appreciate all his other films. After watching it countless numbers of times I am still surprised at how brilliant it was made and I still laugh at the comedy parts of the movie. One for the history books.

I LOVED THIS MOVIE it reminds me of Dexter at some points, i highly reccomend this movie!

Boring no plot and annoying could barely finish it

If you haven't seen this... What are you waiting for? This movie is sick! I mean really sick!

This movie is a pretty weak adaptation of a really awesome book, but my judgement isn't that it doesn't live up to it's source as almost nothing does. My issue with it is more that it pretends to be intellectual or witty when in reality it's just the precursor to torture porn (aka saw) which is the worst genre to ever be born of horror

kind of weak

It's my favorite movie right now :D

I gotta read the boooooook Dx

I loved this movie. It just the right amount of everything in it.

American Psycho takes place in New York City during the glamorous 1980s. Patrick Bateman seems to have it all good looks, an over paid job, and acceptance into all the popular crowds. However, as it is in most cases everything is nothing as it seems. Patrick is hiding a dark secret and we get to know who he really is as the film unfolds.

Christian Bale gives a stunning breakthrough performance as the emotionally disturbed Patrick Bateman. The film is disturbing, funny, and overall unforgettable. The film follows the same dark, humerous tone that the cult classic novel by Bret Easton Ellis takes on. I love this movie and I recommend this film to anyone. While it is a horror film, it can also be interpreted as a character study. I suggest you also read the novel before you watch the movie and if you already have seen the movie read the novel. It is great. This movie is certainly worth the watch.

Feed me a stray cat

Fascinating movie. It makes a person think...be safe.

When it's says "ace scene" I meant "axe scene"

I hate to admit it's one of my favorite twisted reads.. this movie totally missed the mark - or the point. if you enjoy reading, if you enjoy dark humor - mixed with serious horror.. get the book. They couldn't put that stuff on film.

but I still like Christian Bale. :)

Best movie i've ever seen funny and awesome more of a comedy then a horror Id buy it

After I saw this film i had such more repect for Christian Bale then i ever had i absolutly loved how much effort he put in the charector he had to play and saw the story revolved around him with an all star cast to back him up Josh Lucas, Reese Witherspoon, Justin Theroux, Samantha Mathis, Willem Dafoe, Jared Leto, and Bill Sage. This movie was really well done i doesnt get much better then this please Rent if Not Buy

Stupid, boring, and gross

...great films ever made. I adore and loath this movie at the same time. They must have done something right.

This is an awful movie and I know everyone has heard it before but just read the book it's ten times better and it actually made my stomach churn.

This movie iz a perfect 10 (but I cud only give it a 5) it has everything drama, blood, and even the ocasional laugh tottaly worth it :)

i like it and it is pretty scary so yeah buy it

Nice movie

Loved it.

Great movie. A seriel killer that seems so classy but is so sick and twisted. Christian Bale made a name for himself with this movie. I believe it was his first, or one of his first major movies and he becomes the character -as usual.

this is one of those movies where you cant see another actor playing this role Bale was perfect this was the movie he was born to do.

This has got to be the best movie I ever seen. It's dark. It's violent. It's funny at times. It's somewhat haunting. It's phenomenal! I just love it. Christian Bale is awesome in it. It's just simply a really excellent move. It's my one of my top five favorite movies. I love the soundtrack for it. Huey Lewis, Phil Collins, what's not to love about the soundtrack. It was perfectly done. Don't just look at it, buy it right now at this very moment!!! And I mean right now!!!

The reviews pretty much say it all (except for some bed wetter who uses words too big for him and only rates things with one star). A delightfully carefree parody of a slasher flick done in the cadence of an 80's manhattan yuppy. Bale's acting is utterly flawless and just as one would have imagined Bateman in the book. Unfortunately some of the funnier bits are left out, but the movie is solid and hilarious. If you are a puritanical sap or have a childish sense of humor give it a miss. If you are a worthy specimen i would advise buying.

I cannot believe the reviews provided here. This movie is neither a horror film, dark comedy or even just sick comedy. One reviewer suggested that this film represented the American capitalist culture. This is true only if Daffy Duck accurately represents water fowl. This was a collection of late eighties, yuppie vignettes that failed miserably to connect with a single grain of reality. I know the title involves a psycho, but sooner or later a connection must be made between the audience and the dark side. This is never accomplished. This movie is tedious and boring to the point of banality. I keep waiting to care about the characters, but in the end, I was simply glad that it was over. This movie is a poor facsimile of the eighties that never seems to make a point. Kinda like new age music.

If you enjoy serial killer type movies this is superb. I've always enjoyed Christain Bale movies!

this is hardly a horror movie - it's hilarious! and one of my favorite movies of all time! five stars all the way!

By far the best movie i have ever seen. It's funny in a dark way obviously, and any woman or gay man would find themselves wondering how Christian Bale stills stays attractive to us. I will tell you why, BECAUSE NOTHING CAN MAKE HIM UGLY. There are a few parts in this movie that upset me, when he held the gun to the stray kitten, and stomped the dog to death, but it's quick, and he doesn't kill the kitty! Just 40 people instead hahaha. Deffinately worth the ten dollars they are asking for it!!!

I wasn't too crazy with Reese's character though. She just seemed too young to play the fiance.

Anyone who has seen this movie and is not a devoted Super-Mega-Catholic would agree that this movie is a masterpiece of demented humor! A first person look at a creepy and yet hilarious pyschopath who narrates his sickeningly funny input on perfectly normal situations that make for horrendously funny outcomes! You must watch!

This movie is great. It has a lot of dark humor in it. However, I wouldn't recomend it if you are easily offended (it has some graphic sex scenes and of course homicide). Eventhough Patrick Bateman kills a lot of people, I still found him completely sexy. Something must be wrong with me.

The first time i've ever seen a movie almost as great as the book.
