Reviews

The Hollywood Reporter -
A brilliantly honed tale of dementia, starring a skeletal Christian Bale as a tormented insomniac wasting away and terrorized by his irreal existence.
|
|
Film Threat -
The Machinist is so brave and visually impressive, it should demand an audience.
|
|
Rolling Stone -
Director Brad Anderson tightens the screws of suspense, but it's Bale's gripping, beyond-the-call-of-duty performance that holds you in thrall.
