Editorial Review:
Amazon.com essential video:
All films take a certain suspension of disbelief. Fight Club takes perhaps more than others, but if you're willing to let yourself get caught up in the anarchy, this film, based on the novel by Chuck Palahniuk, is a modern-day morality play warning of the decay of society. Edward Norton is the unnamed protagonist, a man going through life on cruise control, feeling nothing. To fill his hours, he begins attending support groups and 12-step meetings. True, he isn't actually afflicted with the problems, but he finds solace in the groups. This is destroyed, however, when he meets Marla (Helena Bonham Carter), also faking her way through groups. Spiraling back into insomnia, Norton finds his life is changed once again, by a chance encounter with Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt), whose forthright style and no-nonsense way of taking what he wants appeal to our narrator. Tyler and the protagonist find a new way to feel release: they fight. They fight each other, and then as others are attracted to their ways, they fight the men who come to join their newly formed Fight Club. Marla begins a destructive affair with Tyler, and things fly out of control, as Fight Club grows into a nationwide fascist group that escapes the protagonist's control.
Fight Club, directed by David Fincher (Seven), is not for the faint of heart; the violence is no holds barred. But the film is captivating and beautifully shot, with some thought-provoking ideas. Pitt and Norton are an unbeatable duo, and the film has some surprisingly humorous moments. The film leaves you with a sense of profound discomfort and a desire to see it again, if for no other reason than to just to take it all in. --Jenny Brown

Fight Club was one those films which fall into the category of "loved it or hated it "

Psychological and physical violence both leave scars
Both will heal over time, but the mental scars go deeper
Fight Club gives people the chance to come face to face with the antagonist, be it a stranger or someone you have known all of your life
Stranger's sometimes have more control over your life than ... Read More

There is no other movie more appropriate and prophetic about the times we live in, so this review warrants a departure from what you're used to. First I'll say some relevant facts about me as a reviewer of this film and about what this movie is *not*, then we''ll take a look at the facts about what the movie *is*.
I'm not under twenty-five. I'm not even a 'twenty-something'. If you think you're above or beyond taking a good look at this movie, and considering what its subtext might be, ... Read More

Fantastic movie based on a fantastic book. It's a little bit different than the book (story-wise), but all the changes were good adaptations to the media difference. Edward Norton and Brad Pitt both play their characters perfectly.

There's a lot that can be said of Fight Club, first that it is not a movie for people who are perfectly content with society, or who frequently shop at IKEA or love their Starbucks.
Fight Club is one of the few movies I've ever viewed that basically takes a look at our society, and tells you not only what is wrong and missing, but how to fix it.
It's dark in a way that would make humanists cringe, and it's automatically going to make anyone in love with the modern world furious. ... Read More
