I have to return some video tapes. Bale's character Patrick Bateman is this amazing, psychotic, rich yuppie living in 1980's New York City. He works on Wall Street at Pierce and Pierce and has an expensive apartment filled with expensive things. When he's not going off to have dinner with the guys, what does he do in his spare time? Finds women and kills them (and a lot of the time he has sex with them before their horrible death). But are these disturbing murders of his actually taking place? Christian Bale is flawless in this movie. There was not one moment where I didn't believe he was Patrick Bateman. Bale really captured the Bateman from the Brett Easton Ellis book. The scene that sticks out to me the most is when Bateman calls his lawyer. Bateman leaves a message confessing to all of the crimes he has committed. During the call, Bateman completely breaksdown. He begins the message calmly and as he keeps going, he starts to get nervous, then he's crying, then he's almost trying to lighten the situation up by laughing, and then he calms down again to end it. It's a rollar coaster of emotions and Bale is there one hundred percent for the ride. Christian Bale really brings Patrick Bateman, this deep, dark, twisted, psychotic, and corrupt character, to life. Along with Bale there is this remarkable supporting cast of Willem Dafoe, Reese Witherspoon, and Chloe Sevigny. A great cast all around. I'm very happy I saw the uncut version of this movie. The sex scene with the two prositutes is actually quite important. It's in that scene that I truly got a grasp on just how self centered Patrick Bateman is. You get the whole picture of him in that scene where he is flexing his muscles and looking at himself in the mirror while having sex. All in all, this is the movie that made me realize just how great of an actor Christian Bale truly is.

It's Anchorman, not Anchorlady. What's not to love about this movie? It has Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd, David Koechner, Steve Carell, and so on and so forth. Will Ferrell plays Ron Burgundy, a news room hot shot in San Diego. Burgundy and the guys love their jobs and have fun while at work. But all of the changes when the station decides to make an addition to the onscreen team: a woman. This puts the entire station in danger because, as everyone knows, women's menstral periods attract bears. Veronica Corningstone, played by Christina Applegate, is a fiesty reporter who won't let anyone stand in her way to the top. Corningstone and Burgundy end up falling madly in love with each other. Buy chaos erupts when Corningstone starts to work her way up in the ranks. All in all, a great comedy. It will get you going every time you watch it.
