Wow, youtube is full of fake trailers for this. I could only find one real one on there and it wasn't even embeddable.

Anyway, I really love this film. I love the shallow world of 80's wall street as a backdrop to the ease of which it seems to allow you to loose your identity. Patrick Batman isa fascinating character and Christian Bale is stunning in the role.

I'm surprised he's never done a comedy because he is absolutely hilarious here. It's a black satire that becomes so outrageous in parts you doubt wether it can all be real. And indeed that is the intention. It's left in large part up to the audience to make up their mind about what is real and what is not and both possibilities have interesting and differing ramifications as to theme.

Absolutely love it.
