The Machinist’s bleached steely grey cinematography succeeds in preventing the audience from placing the film in time and Bale’s epic weight loss is something of a feat. Yet, while remaining watchable, it fails miserably as thriller. The riddle really is as obvious as it seems from the start.
An effort wasting 3 out of 10.
