100% agree! Bale blows!

Everyone thought he was brilliant because of American Psycho and he's been coasting on that reputation ever since. What wasn't realized at the time is that Bale is a one-note guy who can't play any other part. Seriously, he has the range of a shot-putting octogenarian but few people admit (realize?) how bad he sucks.

Plus, you know if he were ever drunk around you, he'd be the type to take a poke at you just to see if you'd flinch.

Awful, he's just awful.
