Dubbed with the title "fight club meets momento" by a reviewer from loaded, which can be found on the front cover.

Christian Bale threw himself into the title role with such devotion that he shed an alarming 63 pounds to play Trevor Reznik, a factory worker who hasn't slept in a year. He's haunted by some mysterious occurrence that turned him into a paranoid husk, sleepwalking a fine line between harsh reality and nightmare fantasy.

I haven't got round to watching this yet, but it's on my "dvd to buy" list because it looks frickin' A.

Anyone seen it?

My friend said it wasn't that good but I don't trust his opinion as he knows nothing. It looks good and I'm sure I'll get round to buying it soon.

It was an awesome movie. Pretty creepy. I was never really a big fan of Christian Bale's cause his acting in his other movies is mediocre at best, but he was really good in the Machinist.
You should check it out, Koby. You'll like it. I give it the Honda rating of 9/10.
