You mean "Slater".

Christian Bale was American Psycho...Christian Slater is in Playback. Two different people...Someone wrote a 10 star review above and 22 people agreed with it...Most of the reviewers think it's Christian Bale. They don't even look alike.

I guess it's like looking at clouds. You see one thing and I see another. Peace.

Judging by the amount of people mentioning Christian Bale instead of Slater their reviews of this film, i'm guessing this is some 'hilarious' student joke.

If this movie is so good, then why did it only take in $264 at the box-office? I quote TIME magazine

[–] budikavlan 11 years ago

To go that low, it means it was only released in 1 or 2 theaters. So it's not really related to the quality of the movie (though it can't have looked too good if they couldn't be bothered to release it to more locations than that).

Agreed. I loved Christian Bale in Batman but his performance in this movie was brilliant.

"Someone with a sense of humor" is a definition "troll" with which I'm not familiar.

I'm honestly surprised he didn't get an Oscar nod for this. Impressive, to say the least.

I agree. Isn't this the same character he played in The Prestige though?

So says The Goats!

Me thinks your joke fell flat. Nobody seems to have even gotten it.

There are just reactive people too willing to pick fights to get a joke on IMDb.
