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.

Can I Get This In Cornflower Blue? January 3, 2009
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
The quintessential flick for anarchists, angry guys, or cult film lovers. Ed Norton and Brad Pitt team up to create an extraordinary film. It is not for the faint of heart, nor is it for the extremely sensitive.
The Narrator, Ed Norton, suffers from insomnia and finds his solution going to various support groups until he meets Marla Singer, Helena Bonham Carter, who upsets the balance that The Narrator has achieved. Enter Tyler Durden, Brad Pitt, who solves The Narrator's housing, sleeping, pretty much all of his problems. Once realizing what he's gotten himself into The Narrator has an entertaining journey of discovery which leads to the establishment of a new life.
Fight Club is both entertainment and social commentary. When Pitt's character Durden criticizes so many things taken for granted or thought of as necessities in modern society one has to wonder how far off the mark he really is. The Spartan existence of Durden almost seems attractive when he explains how frivolous materialism has made humanity.
If nothing else you will have an altered view the food industry. And a distinct wonder of what you really can accomplish.
All told this is a great film, with a fascinating if bizarre story. The cast is perfect in brining the dysfunction of the world to the forefront of your mind.
Still one of my favorites, even after several viewings. September 21, 2008

The director/writer just plain got this one right. If you read the book, then see the movie, the movie IS the book on the big screen.
Well made, well acted, well done.

I had heard that this was a good film, but I put off seeing it. That was a mistake. This is a film that totally and completely shows the need for a post-Modern need to reinvent the ideals of American Masculinity. Edward Norton and Brad Pit give amazing performances. Helena Bohnom Carter is truly a gifted actress. YOU MUST SEE THIS FILM....NOW!!!!!!!
