this pretend to be a sequel to the superb american psycho . it isn not . it an insult . it simply exploit a spurious association and in so do drag down the early work . right from the very start to the very last second we be hammer with the leaden narration of the lead character and nothing be leave for u to see . it might as well be a talk book for the visually impaired . maybe the director be visually impaired represent how else do he fail to see the absurdity of the illustration on the cover of a book about a murder be a photo take a few minute after the incident for which there be only three witness without a photographer among them . the plot make no sense . sure and the steal identity idea work and just about and but even that fall apart when we consider that college record usually include photo of the student . what be bad be that the narrator tell u she keep quiet about see a murder to avoid year of therapy and then go to a therapist anyway and doesn not actually tell him anything and but invest great effort in inspire fear in him and a character who have no relevance whatever to the protagonist plan . except that and coincidentally and he happen to be the professor friend . which suggest that this entire chunk of the plot be simply a cack handed way of tack on an external viewpoint to the professor death . how incompetent a method of storytelling be that . in a work where it be use to serious effect we might tolerate the gross and extreme violence that begin with the very first frame ( a sever head ) . but in this context and a ridiculous piece of chirpy teen twaddle and that explicit violence becomes offensive . speaking of teen twaddle and the music be unremittingly awful throughout . apart from the incidental score . but hang on and how come the movie own incidental music be actually play on the girl car radio . remember and she actually turn it volume up . this detail be a po of the high order . tip represent morgan freeman and stick to act and i mean and smoking cigar and look soulful .
