Yeah, right!
This is one of those rare cases where a film's sequel actually surpasses the original. Of course, the chances of that were very high since American Psycho was possibly the worst serial killer movie EVER. Social satire? Materialism? Yuppie culure? Newsflash: no one cares! That can't save a movie like American Psycho from being what it is: boring. Period. This movie, however, is what the first American Psycho should have been. Throw out all that... business card fonts and 1980s music bands because they don't belong in a serial killer movie. Granted, I appreciate the attempt at creativity, but come on. Anyways, this movie has a very hot girl serial killer (gotta love that) doing away with the classmates that stand between her and her life goal: Quantico's FBI training academy. This means death to all other contenders for her professor's TA position. I love the fact that she wants to get into the FBI and stop serial killers so badly that she becomes one herself. Way better than the explanation Patrick Bateman had for killing people. At least this girl has a goal. And a personality. Something Bateman lacks. This movie has great twists and has you guessing the whole way. And by the way, the acting -- terrific! The actress playing Rachael, the killer, here is a lot more interesting than Bateman, and in this case, even a better actor. Full of black humor and plenty of murders, this movie puts American Psycho to shame because it actually manages to be somewhat interesting. This girl [does not care] about her culture. This is the way a serial killer is supposed to be. If this weren't the sequel to American Psycho, it probably wouldn't be as fun though. Because it has the chance to take all those fans of the first installment and make them sick. And they deserve it for making that film so popular and making me thinking it was good so I would rent it. American Psycho was a waste of money. American Psycho 2 is not. At least bad movies can produce [good] sequels. It doesn't happen often. While this is not the best movie out there, it's way ahead of the first movie in storytelling and enjoyment. It really shouldn't have been a direct-to-video. This is high quality for a direct-to-video movie. If it would have been released theatrically, like it should have been, then fans of the first movie would have gone to see it and hated it. That would teach them a lesson for making me waste my money by giving it good reviews. If you liked the first, you'll hate this. If you had taste and hated the first, this is a breath of fresh air. There's been talk of an American Psycho franchise. I'm certainly looking forward to it.
