The Machinist

The Machinist
Saw this movie last night at 2.30am …oh that won’t b last night…that will be today morning lol … no its 12.28 am now…so it was last night only… lol
The movie was released in Jan 2004 and I saw it pretty late, after 4 yrs.

Anyways the movie is really good, it’s a psychological thriller.
Directed by Brad Anderson and lead actor is Chistian Bale.

The movie is about a guy named “Trevor Reznik” who has chronic insomnia. This along with the guilt inside him makes him suffer from hallucination.

The movie is really fun to watch, it’s the movie with different pieces of jigsaw puzzle with the last piece coming in the end.

There is nothing much to write about the movie…Everything becomes clear in last 5 minutes when Trevor discovers what actually is going around him. The story is quite simple but what matters is how it has been put up and beautifully directed by the director and performed by the actor.

For a guy like me, the movie has been refreshing. :-)

The most appreciable part of the movie was the weight loss by Christian Bale for the role.
He lost around 28 kg for the role. He looks like a skeleton in some scenes. I would suggest you to take a look at the pics of the actor in the movie, it is simply amazing.

Earlier I thought that it is the special effect but then since the built remains the same skinny in the entire movie I checked out Wikipedia and came to know about the facts.

I would rate it as 3.5 on the scale of 5.
