It's very good and I was amazed at his physical appearance.

[Herr Lipp]

Cool. Christian Bale is a dappa don.

It was a good film, but the formula is pretty Jacob's Ladder / The Tenant material.

I, too, was astounded at his physique in it. Very disturbing.

[Herr Lipp]

he obviously has good metabolic control or something, cos in Batman he'd put all the weight back on as muscle. he was hench in Batman, man.

hopefully I will get this in 2 working days.

In the extras he said he just stopped eating. Sounds like it was torture.

The Machinist was one of my personal favorites this year. I knew almost nothing going into the theater and found myself engrossed by what was happening on screen. His guilt was so much that it was physically making him disappear. A sad and morbid story though, which was right down my alley. My girlfriend went because she has the hots for Bale, boy was she shocked, hehe. I think it kinda messed her up seeing him look like that. In short, it was very creepy, but highly recommended.

Did you even finish it? At the end, it even showed that it unrolled out and no one was in it.

I know, I know....but I thought the body couldve plopped out in the river :O doesnt matter I did say it was probably an illusion yada yada yada not a bad movie at all.

I really like the schiz-out scene at teh police station and in the sewers.
