What scared me the most about this movie was not Patrick, but the people surrounding him. So stuck on their own world that they do not react to a literal threat to society because they have no humanity in them.

After rewatching this movie last week, it's crazy how 20 years later the movie just fits what the world has become today. The way he narrates about his lifestyle just sounds so much like what social media "influencers" sound like today. How this narcissistic self love industry is slowly turning us into psychopaths.

I feel like Patrick’s decision to not kill the secretary is not really because she has morals or virtues, it’s because she’s one of the very few people that actually notice Patrick as an individual person. It’s the same reason he doesn’t kill the gay man. They both make him feel seen and heard for once.

People glamourising a character made to be a caricature of them is the most ironic thing ever

A reminder to men : Masculinity is not about how many muscles you have, how many times you have had sex or how rich you are. It is about how much you value your morales and your relations with people.

I love how the movie shows the morbid realisitic parts of a psychopath. There is no climax, no big plot, no good ending. It's simply emptyness, lack of connection, unstable mental state, and constant suffering.

The stern women real estate agent is also a psychopath who recognises one of her own.  She doesn't care about Patrick's murders as long as it doesn't affect the sale price.

It's interesting how the director of American Psycho has stated that it's actually a strongly feminist film, portraying Patrick Bateman as an extreme caricature of toxic men.

I love the speech that Bateman gives about apartheid, homelessness etc. He's trying to sound serious, but because he doesn't believe in anything that he's saying, it just comes off as a joke.
This happens very often with tv hosts, politicians, CEO's and wealthy people in general.

For example: It very much reminds me of politicians talking about problems that plague so many, yet those politicians can't relate in the slightest since they've never had to deal with it.

Crazy how movies like this, the joker, taxi driver, fight club, a clockwork orange(to a degree) and many more speak to young men in such a way

I just visited New York City for the first time last week. One night at dinner I overheard a conversation from the table next to us - judging from their expensive outfits, wine bottles, and haughty attitude, they came off as very similar to the elite in American Psycho. They discussed their previous night of debauchery rather unimpressively. They bragged about ditching out of an expensive Broadway play early because they got bored and didn’t care about the money. Their voices just sounded so… dull. Monotone. All the money in the world and they couldn’t find happiness in expensive things or events.

The bartender couldn’t hear Patrick calling her an “ugly bitch” and saying he wanted to stab her to death. The other woman in that club didn’t hear that he said he’s into “murders and executions” or she thought it was a joke for “mergers and acquisitions.” The women weren’t oblivious to what he said. They either didn’t hear or they saw it as a joke or they misheard it.

I wonder if these disturbing and dystopian films tried to warn us or conditioned us to not resist the grim world they depicted

American Psycho is really worth to watch, even for people who aren't into movies, especially for the memes

My brother is a huge fan of American Pyscho. I frequently encourage him to better himself but he is stuck in a cycle of loneliness, trying to impress people who don't care, running from the trauma of his past, and I wish he would break away. I had to break away and I am still dismantling my preconceived notions in regards to life in my future.
We have to stop hoping someone will notice us, and instead notice ourselves first.

lets be honest, 50% of people that say they relate to batemen most definitely don't but say it for the meme on the internet or sarcastically.

I recently deleted social media for this exact reason. I am young, I have a sizeable family of my own and all the lack of attention to detail on top of never ending drama has made me not want to even have it in my life anymore. Seeing what it's doing to some family, people who I use to call friends and even myself. Already feeling better.

The one time I watched this movie, I was terrified by the ending because it showed that he was not the psycho, but it was the society and he was actually the hero who was trying to escape it in his weird murderous way. It's a cosmic horror genre.

Something that always seemed so interesting to me from the movie was that Patrick could have had the opportunity to get rid of Louis (The guy that liked him) and Jean (His secretary that seemed to either like him or show some type of care with him).

He did not act on it on those occassions because for some moment on his life, 2 people saw him as a human and not just some occupation or thing. And it also meant to him that they had some degree of humanity left in them, compared to the other people he got rid of, who he saw, as "things". Just tells you how empty his life was even if he had "everything" and the type of people that surround him.
