Christian Bale


Am I the only one who thought he accent was off in this film--too stiff, robotic? I've hard him give much better American accents in films, so I wonder why "Sam's" accent made me want to plug my ears. Not matural at all--

However, to offset that, MY GOD was he built in that film. Arms, chest--wow. Did he just come off "American Psycho" when making this?

"As for his being ripped... actors usually are"

Not like he was in this. CB is usually a lil' more slim athletic-wise. In those swimscenes he really looked like he has gone to extra effort . . .

How funny, I didnt even notice his accent -- perhaps I was too shocked by his bad acting. I agree with you, he did seem quite stiff and robotic, he had none of the dynamism displayed in American Psycho. When Sara told him she thought he was sexy, I really couldn't see why. And wasnt that scene in the car park with sara and sam just the most cringeworthy scene ever. I almost fast forwarded it. Ugh. I also didnt think he looked "ripped", one scene when he took off his shirt I thought he looked flabby. Maybe my expectations are too high because lots of other male actors these days are so buff.
