Review of The Machinist (2004) by Damien B — 14 Jun 2013
THE MACHINIST (2003): Still my top-fave Brad Anderson flick, followed by TRANSIBERIAN as a close 2nd, THE MACHINIST outdid what he achieved with SESSION 9 back in 2001 remains a darkly twisted Psychological/Suspense Thriller with hints of Alfred Hitchcock and early Polanski, also making it Christian Bale's most hauntingly memorable actin performance to date! Anderson has followed this up with the taut-Kidnapping Suspense Thriller THE CALL starring Abigail Breslin [LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE] and Halle Berry [MONSTER'S BALL] in yet another emotionally teary eyed but well acted performance, definitely recommended for all Brad Anderson fans! THE MACHINIST still comes out tops for the director, thus far! [SCORE: 10/10].
