Favorite Non-Batman Christian Bale Movie - Blu-ray Forum

What is your favorite Christian Bale movie where he doesn't dress up like a bat?

Now I know alot of people would have said Dark Knight or Batman Begins, that's why I left them out of the thread, I wanted to know the most preferred movie of his that wasn't a blockbuster.
Those two are his only (live action) films to gross over 100million domestically in case you didn't know.

My personal favorite of his is Reign of Fire.
But I love just about all of his films, but this one just is a better movie than the others to me.

I like a lot of his movies but my favorite Bale without a bat costume would be...

3:10 to Yuma,
then i would have to say American Psycho,Reign of Fire, and probally Terminator: Salvation will be one of my favs unless its rated PG-13

ckent22 · 03-08-2009, 06:59 PM

Probably "The New World" or "American Psycho"

I'm still a fan of Empire of the Sun and would love to see that film on Blu ray.

Variable · 03-08-2009, 07:06 PM

since we're defining by Christian Bale I went with what is his best performance imo, American Psycho.

if it was purely best movie of that list I think I'd say Prestige.

The Prestige, probably because I haven't seen American Psycho yet.

I'm surprised no one liked "The New World" enough to put that besides me or that it wasn't even in the poll.
