hyped garbage

Disturbing yet enthralling

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

A girl named Rachael Newman has developed a taste for murder and will stand at nothing to become a college professor's assistant. American Psycho II: All American Girl is an awful sequel from start to finish if anyone ever thought that maybe everything was in Bateman's head well in this movie Bateman gets killed by Rachael when she was younger and she goes insane as well and kills some people and the fact that they used Mila Kunis is one of the least problems that this movie has it's dumb, it's a joke next to the first film and for some reason William Shatner is in this movie too for some reason the film also ends like every horror film does this days which is that the evil escapes and changes a name or something like that i'm going to give American Psycho 2 a 3/10.

If this movie had been made as just another crime/thriller movie and not as a sequel to American Psycho, I honestly think it would have been slightly more successful; the reason being is that those who have seen the first movie will have high expectations of this one (unless they have viewed this IMDb page) and be making comparisons throughout the 90 minute duration. As a sequel to a highly successful thriller movie, this movie falls far short of the mark; even as a thriller this movie still falls short. Both the story and the characters are highly undeveloped, which makes the movie unbelievable. In comparison to the first film it is nowhere near as graphic, which contributes to the unbelievable story and makes the film less sadistic. Parts of the dialogue are laughable but not in a black comedy way like the first one. One of the biggest problems I had with the film is that nobody noticed when someone was killed, there was no police investigation, no panic from the community and this is where the movie again tries to use the same elements that made the first one so successful but in this setting I think it leaves the audience questioning why and adding to the incredulous story. All the shortcomings of the film are because it tries to emulate the first one but in order to even be considered on the same level as the first this film needed to be a lot darker, wittier and graphic and then developed further from that. Really the only positives I can say about this film is the performances from Mila Kunis and William Shatner were brilliant; I think they have done well to breathe life into a dull script and really carried the movie. Parts of the dialogue were also well written ("ribbed for her pleasure" for example) but I think these moments were well out weighed by the negatives. If you have seen the first film and found it to be a masterpiece of both filmmaking and storytelling, then you will need to lower your expectations immensely before seeing this but if you are looking for a b-grade possibly even c-grade movie that's lightly entertaining but still a cut above Sharknado and Paranormal Activity 2 than this film is for you.

For some reason I thought this video sequel to the 2000 film came out fairly recently, and I was a little worried that Mila Kunis, who starred, was being a little careless with her career choices. That it came out in 2002 makes a lot more sense. It also explains why she's so much worse in this than she has been in any film she's appeared in in the past couple of years. She's grown nicely as an actress. She's still hot here, which is more or less the only worthy thing about this film (there's also another really attractive woman in the cast, Lindy Booth). This film may in fact have the very worst script I've ever seen in a movie. As one might guess, this film has little to do with the original American Psycho. Mila Kunis' character apparently killed Patrick Bateman when she was a child. She liked it, and is really good at murder herself. Her life plans, though, have her become an FBI agent and an expert on serial killers, Dexter style, so she can catch the bad guys. To achieve her dream, she must go through a professor at her college, William Shatner, who has a reputation for training FBI agents. There are three other students, however, who may beat her for Shatner's T.A. job for the next year, and she decides to take them out. The thing with this film is that Kunis is a terribly bad murderer. She leaves evidence and witnesses everywhere. And even when she decides to take out the witnesses, the audience is left wondering how a 100 lb gal can overpower her victims so easily. So the movie requires that everyone around her be even dumber than she is, which leaves the film populated by subhuman morons, perhaps even dumber than the screenwriters who created them. You wonder why the cops aren't at all investigating any of the disappearances Kunis causes, but then we meet them and they can only barely form coherent thoughts (one of them actually tries to give his partner, who is piloting their cop car, a speeding ticket while he is driving). The writers, thank God, have barely worked since they wrote this film.

OK, I feel as though that there could have been a lot more done with the film, but for some odd reason the movie was shot in 20 days, not much room for a true masterpiece to be created in my perspective. A lot of people were critiquing Mila Kunis's acting in the film and how they found her sexy but yet annoying, well she was really young, like 16 or 17 years old I believe she said,but obviously she is given these roles and well respected as an actress for a reason, and she worked the role to the best of her abilities, yet i digress.. the movie picks up at Patrick Bateman's demise, she was supposed to be being watched by her baby sitter, but was tagged along on a horrific evening on which she was luckily able to survive from, but it was to be expected, to kill the little girl would have been cruel and ended the movie very quickly, especially since that is what are plot is based upon. My problem with the film is only this, I understand she only stayed in college due to the fact that she killed the actual Rachel Newman and had taken her identity, and that she eagerly desired to be an FBI agent to bring justice and prevent things such as what happened to her baby sitter from happening again to anyone else and could only further her chances of achieving that goal by becoming the professor's assistant. My question is, was her character equally demented as Patrick Bateman to top the 1st, because her pursuit overclouded her judgement, and that in itself I suppose answered my own question, but the very reason for killing all of these people defeated her purpose for being there, that's my problem. She was a very smart woman though and made it a very entertaining film to watch, it was given sex appeal with out the sex, she was very good about how she tidied up her messes and how she extracted her kills, yes it may have been less gory, but smart & sexy to say the least, I do not intend to judge upon how attractive she was,cause she is, but it was well acted, but that's just my opinion, watch it again if you must, really dig deep into the plot, do some research on how it was filmed, and let it be judged by that
