About
You’ll likely like American Psycho if you enjoy dark, satirical psychological thrillers that blur how much is real and keep you uneasy with escalating fantasies; Not for you if you want a straightforward, character-driven drama or if you dislike very extreme violence, and it may feel similar to Seven or Fight Club.
Pros: dark comedy; intense acting; memorable moments | Cons: hard to watch; confusing reality; extreme content
