First, the positive points of the movie: great cinematography, interesting set designs, and, most importantly, amazing acting from Christian Bale. Now for the negative: everything else. The script was horrible. Unlike other PSYCHOLOGICAL thrillers(cough cough SILENCE OF THE LAMBS), this had no mind games in it. It was basically just a guy going around killing people he didn't like. It didn't leave any guessing or mind work, he just got the victims drunk and hacked them up with an ax. I didn't even finish watching the movie; I found it completely pointless and boring. A good idea for a movie: bad execution.
Two stars.
