American Psycho
2000
With a chiseled chin and an iron physique, Patrick Bateman's looks make him the ideal yuppie -- and the ideal serial killer. That's the joke behind American Psycho, which follows a killer at large during the 1980s junk-bond boom. Bateman (Christian Bale) takes pathological pride in everything from his business card to his Huey Lewis CD collection, all the while plotting his next victim's vivisection.

A self-indulgent script full of pretentious babble. Good acting, but the plot isn't enjoyable. It is a movie that attempts to be clever, but ends up being about abstract ideas, not what is actually on film. Bateman resembles Dexter a little bit
