synopsis
Based on Bret Easton Ellis' controversial 1991 novel, comes this dark story of a young Harvard graduate, Patrick Bateman, who has all the accoutrements of a young "master of the universe" -- from designer wardrobe to a killer apartment -- just like everyone else in his crowd. He desperately wants to fit in, yet, the terrible irony is the more he tries to be like every other money-drenched man on Wall Street, the more faceless he becomes -- and the less control he has over the urges that, ironically, make him feel like an individual. Bateman is a paragon of conformity in an amoral society where to conform is to be amoral.

Director Mary Harron adapts Bret Easton Ellis' controversial novel concerning serial killer Patrick Bateman (Christian Bale) who acts out his male rage by killing women ... or does he? Story Bateman is young, handsome, successful ... and homicidal. This Reagan-era yuppie-gone-mad portrait is not a savory story. Fortunately, much of the violence is off screen, and some of the more gruesome elements of Ellis' novel were not in the script. Though Wall Street's 1980s excesses seem cast + crew
