Does the fact that the film was pretty much entirely bleak and didn't have a feel good resolution make it a bad movie? Not to me. But I can understand why its off putting to people. I think the purpose of the movie was to take you on an uneasy, stressful journey into the making of a madman. There was no batman to come in and resolve that tension. But I actually liked that the movie went there.

Not well-executed though. If what you are saying is true, then how is this not just another version of Fight Club?
