I've never heard American Psycho classed as a guilty pleasure before, the words I associate it with are 'iconic' and 'controversial'

I enjoyed it from start to finish when I watched it.

It's pretty much one of my all time favourites! Good choice.

I just watched Date Night and I quite liked it. Not the best comedy every but still ranked better than some of the reviews it got.

the premise is somewhat unique and the overall execution is sound. the characters save bale are forgettable and cliché. i don't believe a person like that would exist or get away with it for any length of time. but the action scenes and his whole routine with introducing a song and then getting down to the nitty-gritty is enjoyable in a guilty pleasure sort of way.

Yeah, I always interpreted the book and the film as the murders being the fantasies of a delusional psychotic... Whether any of the crimes depicted in the novel actually happened, or were simply fantasies, is deliberately left open. What do you guys all think?

Bateman was a nut that fantasised about going absolutely nuts and killing everyone. Repressed emotionally. Like when he tried to get money out and inserted the cat and then shot everyone he could find. Just complete fantasy, to suggest otherwise is ridiculous. Just like when he throws a chainsaw - fantasy. His appointment book with all them drawings on it, just idle thinking/fantasising. The ending confirms that it's fantasy.
