Editorial Reviews

Product Description
"'Fight Club' pulls you in, challenges your prejudices, rocks your world and leaves you laughing" (Rolling Stone). Brad Pitt ("12 Monkeys", "Seven"), Edward Norton ("Primal Fear," "American History X") and Helena Bonham Carter ("Mighty Aphrodite," "A Room With A View") turn in powerful "performances of which movie legends are made" (Chicago Tribune) in this action-packed hit. A ticking-time-bomb insomniac (Norton) and a slippery soap salesman (Pitt) channel primal male aggression into a shocking new form of therapy. Their concept catches on, with underground "fight clubs" forming in every town, until a sensuous eccentric (Bonham Carter) gets in the way and ignites an out-of control spiral toward oblivion.

5.0 out of 5 stars The first rule of Fight Club is..., July 18, 2009

By	ceffalo - See all my reviews

This film is both underrated and overrated. It's underrated because I don't think major critics have always given this one a great recommendation, as it deserves such. I've discovered that, in most cases, if Brad Pitt is in a film then it is probably a good movie. This one is in many ways. However, I must also say that it is fully overrated in that those who really champion this film give it a lot more credit than it actually deserves, probably because of how "cool" the story goes with them.

There are quite a few fight scenes and they are genuinely authentic fighting scenes. As such, I don't think someone under 18 years of age should watch this movie.

The actual content of the film, however, could not be more well developed. If you've seen 12 Monkeys then I must tell you that some of the idea in this film is very similar to that one, and while I don't think this movie is as intelligent as that, it is indeed a well designed idea altogether.

One thing is certain. If you have no idea what this film is about I can tell you that figuring out what is actually going on is not very easy. A truly detached movie watcher can probably figure it out and yet still be fully entertained by it. If you get sunk into the movie, though, you will be well into it before you understand what's happening, and the epiphany delivered is absolutely the tops. A genuine work of art.

Don't be deceived by the title to this film. It's a far deeper idea than it would appear on the surface, and it's far more rewarding than most films could ever be.

It's a five star film. Enjoy.

From the beginning of the film, you don't know what is going on. You meet the guy (Edward Norton) who is plagued by insomnia. He is strange and attends support meetings to pass his sleepless nights. Then one night he meets Tyler (Brad Pitt) and all hell breaks loss. It will knock your socks off!!!!!!!!
