The Machinist

I just saw it yesterday in the cinema, and that was one hell of a ride.

Trevor Reznik (Christian Bale) hasn't been able to sleep for a year and suddenly strange notes appear on his fridge. An accident happens at his work and suddenly all his colleagues seem to turn against him, and his world starts to fall apart mixing reallity with unreality. So he needs to find out what the fvck is going on.

Twisted, Scary and a brilliant story.

I liked it. It was very unusual and Bale's performance was great. It's a haunting look at what guilt can do to a person.

thought it was a little dissapointing. so in the end we find out that he was just *******************************. mostly the only thing going for it was his gaunt ass face and body being so freaky. rest was a drag. maybe good for like a 1 hr outlimits/twighlight zone eps, not so much for a movie.
