This is a quintessential 80's film. Filled with all the yuppie, self-indulgent longings that we would expect from a 1985 brat-packer movie. I cannot say it is cinematic brilliance, but I guess it is kind of cute in a sophomoric way. Most of the characters are either of weak moral standing, or are hopelessly in love with someone unavailable. Even Wendy- the only one not slacking or immoral is in love with pretty boy Billy- the biggest slacker, womanizer of the bunch. Worth watching just to see what NOT to become after graduating from college.
Yuck!
This movie was really bad. There was nothing likeable about the entire film. Aside from being morbidly gruesome, none of characters were interesting in any way. They were all self absorbed materialistic snobs, and they were all exactly alike! As for the serial killer....well, he was just painful to watch in general. Did we have to hear him drone on about those CDs while he planned his murders? I kept wishing he would just shut up! His mannerisms and the way he talked in that "way too white boy" accent, were tiresome after the first ten minutes. I have read several of Bret Easton Ellis's novels and I found them boring and redundant. Doesn't this guy have anything more to say than, "we are a materialistic, inherently bad society with poor moral values?" I think he covers that same ground in every novel he writes. And whats his obsession with the decadence of the 80's? Man, it's over dude. Forget it and move on!

This was a cool movie. One of the best I've seen in awhile. One of those "kick back and enjoy the ride" films with non stop action and fun. Yes, the people in the film have little or no morals, but thats why we go to movies right? If we can't live the life ourselves, we can always escape to a movie and watch others doing it. Very enjoyable. 8 out of 10.
