How do movies like this get made.I thought the film was being ironic and then I realized this soulless work was serious. OMG the writing was nearly as bad as the acting. There was nothing that made me feel any of the characters were human. Nothing redemptive no arc no aspects of what we all recognize in ourselves. The costumes were great and some of the music was well done but honestly whoever made this has some serious issues. A lot was taken from Brett Easton Ellis but Less than Zero personified a pariah in our culture and did it stylishly well. This did not have the depth the insight or the existential aspect of alienation. This film left me angry for giving it a shot and feeling as empty as the narrative.
