1d

A dazzling entertainment that wants us to luxuriate in violence as we condemn it; a brilliant solution to depicting the divided self as a protagonist; and proof that Brad Pitt, as well as Edward Norton, can really act.

The disenfranchised modern male has been the subject of several Hollywood films. But few have matched the dramatic punch of Fight Club.

5/5

The movie is not merely the best of the week, month or even year, but a singular event, like the opening of 2001 or Pulp Fiction. You know you are seeing something brand new and emotionally powerful even if you don't necessarily know what it means.

3.5/4

Modern materialism takes a beating in Fight Club. So do its practitioners. So do those who wish to destroy it. So does the audience. But in this case it's an exhilarating pounding, administered by a master manipulator.

A literate, risk-taking, riveting work of savage genius.

It's a dangerous and unnerving movie because, while they are manifestly defending civilised values, Fincher and company involve us at a visceral level in the seductive attractions of what the film attacks.

Fight Club is all about the struggle to find meaning in a world without God, and the subcultures offering solutions.

Fight Club (1999), directed by David Fincher and based on the novel by Chuck Palahniuk, is a psychological drama that explores identity, consumerism, and the search for meaning in modern life and identity. The film follows an unnamed narrator , a man struggling with insomnia and dissatisfaction with his ordinary life. His world changes when he meets Tyler Durden, a charismatic and rebellious soap salesman. Fight Club is a thought-provoking and intense film that challenges viewers to think deeply about society and themselves. While it may not be suitable for everyone due to its violent content, it remains a культ classic and one of the most impactful films of its time.

Fight Club - definitely in my list of top 10 movies of all time. Pitt and Norton are both great actors in this film (only in my mind to be out-acted by Helena Bonham Carter as Marla Singer). Great cinematography and soundtrack that really keep the movie on pace. It's a classic, 100% recommendation to watch this movie.

Favourite movie ever. As a horror fan, the bloody scenes made me love it more!! This is a psychological movie, with AMAZING twists. The attention to detail David Fincher has will never cease to amaze me. (Of course giving lots of credit to Chuck Palahniuk). The soundtrack, the actors, the scenes, everything. I love this movie with all my heart!!

One of the greatest movies ever made. From a time when Hollywood made movies instead of political statements.
