Christian Bale
Christian Bale is amassing quite a diverse filmography. What do you think is his best performance?

Re: Christian Bale
American Psycho

Re: Christian Bale
Empire of the Sun or Equilibrium

Re: Christian Bale
American Psycho for me, as well.

Re: Christian Bale
I'm sure it will be a two horse race between American Psycho and The Machinist. Since I saw neither, nor have I seen most of his filmography, I guess I can't vote.

Re: Christian Bale
American Psycho. He gets points for losing all that weight for The Machinist but the acting was better in American Psycho.
|
Re: Christian Bale
hrm....The Prestige or Rescue Dawn for me. I've yet to see The Machinist...

Snake, as you're a fledgling filmmaker I implore you to see this gem immediately! Brad Anderson is a fantastic director. It goes to show you what can be done on a shoestring budget with a dedicated cast and crew. |

I know all about the work behind it, especially Bale...it's just one of those films that I still haven't gotten a chance to see. I'm sure I'll like it. How's the BD of it btw? That's been in my cart for a while.

whoa...lol...

Re: Christian Bale
he was better than Depp in Public Enemies. how sad the cool bad guy title character was less interesting.
|
Re: Christian Bale
American Psycho. It was the first of his movies I saw and his performance was stellar. I re-watched it recently and his performance holds up well.
It came down to this and Rescue Dawn but I had to go with Pat Bateman. |
Re: Christian Bale
Easily American Psycho. He fit the role so well.

Tough to say.
Though many of his movies have been some of my favorites from recent years, I find Bale rather lacking. He just seems kinda "one-note", you know? I wish he'd lose the harsh "over-the-top" delivery and try something a bit more subtle, so that we can see some more range from him...if he has it. :shrug: Although I was half expecting him to hunt down Colin Farrell and take an axe to his head ;) |
Re: Christian Bale
Rescue Dawn.
|
Re: Christian Bale
Harsh Times
Empire of the Sun 3:10 to Zuma American Psycho My faves of his... |
Re: Christian Bale
American Psycho, that role is almost iconic imo.
|
Re: Christian Bale
Loved his "Batman" voice in those movies.
|
Re: Christian Bale
He was note-perfect in American Psycho, totally nailing the dry, wry tone of the book. Rescue Dawn comes in second. I thought he was pretty bad in the Batman films. American Psycho is his only comedy, correct? He's one of those guys like Sean Penn who gets knocked for their grim seriousness off-screen, and neither one has done many comedies on-screen. I haven't forgotten Spicoli, of course.

Re: Christian Bale
American Psycho sticks out as my first choice
