Summary: The Greatest movie or all time !
Review: This is easily the greatest film of all time. One of the reasons for being so great are the great preformances from Ed Norton and Brad Pitt. The film is very misinterpreted and have read many reviews stating that it is to influental and nilistic, however it is really mocking it self on these terms . Fo example Tyler Durden rebels against almost every product, becuase we don't need it for survival, films included so why is there a film about it, because it is self mockery. And this one of the things that makes the film so clever and witty. The amazing plot devlopment at the end is just amazing. This film contains many new style visual effects and the mis en scene that is created by the greatest director around at the moment is just fabolous and makes you feel like you are in the dark place where the narrator is. This I think is one of those films either you love it or you hate it. You have to read the film correctly, it is a black comedy thriller. The comedy is very subtle but also very funny. Some of the cleverest movie lines are in this film " With a gun barrel stuck you only speak in vowels". The screenplay has been very well adapted from the book exluding of course the ending. YOu have to see this film, and even if you don't like it you can still appreciate it for it style. In ten years time this could be the most popular cult film of all time.

Summary: Absolutely THE BEST movie of the 90's!
Review: This movie absolutely blew me away. I loved "Seven" and "the Game" so I knew i'd at least like the movie, but I could never have predicted how much. It is perfect in every sence of the word. Every aspect of the film (Acting, Directing, Style, Story) is Faultless. Brad and Edward go together like Mr and Mrs Brady, The editing and Cinematography are mind-blowing. It is perfection. Anyone who disagrees is Dead Wrong.

Summary: "The world we all know is there,but don't want to admit"
Review: I don't want to say that fight club chnged my life but it did, by helping me put into words what i've felt for years.We are all clones,Tyler shows us this.We buy what the TV tells us,we wear what everyone is wearing,we act a certain way because we are conditioned to act this way.Just think about that,let it sink in and re-examine your actions and what really causes you to do things you do. This just scratches the surface of what Fight Club is about.When I sat down to watch this movie I was expecting the Ultimate Fighting Championhip because of title,the whole movie contains about 10 minutes of fighting.Contrary to some critics the violence in the film was not meaningless,this was the most justifiable violence i've seen on film. David Fincher directed this film perfectly.His use of camera angles,shaking the camera,and blurred shots fit so well with the tone of the film.Brad Pitt was an excellent choice for the role of Tyler Durden the man who makes and sells soap for a living,but is extremely complex.This is Pitt at his best.Edward Norton plays a run down white collar worker who is not happy with his job,his looks,his whole life, and no matter what IKEA furniture set or how much DKNY clothing he buys he still feels incomplete,sound familar? Fight club is the most well made movie i've ever seen.In addition to that it is the most insightful movie I know of.It tackles issues other movies don't have the guts to.You may hear someone say they didn't enjoy this film,watch it for yourself.These people fall into two categories,those who could not understand the film because of tunnel vision,and those who are afraid to admit what they may have become.

Summary: the best film of 1999
Review: I see movies a lot and I always watch the credits. Most often, however, I watch the credits and read off the names to myself. After Fight Club, I just sat in the theater and said to myslef, "Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmnnnnnnnnn." Fight Club is David Fincher's best film. It is the best film of 1999 and it is also my personal favorite. The choice of actors couldn't have been better and the script is superbly written and stays very true to the novel. Even the Dust Brothers score is perfect. I like to compare this film to another of my favorites. It seems to me like this is a '90s version of Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange. Of course, they're not exactly alike, but they are very similar in theme. Buy this movie!

Summary: Misinterpreted
Review: Fight Club is one of the few films in recent memory that attempts to honestly analyze and deconstruct our infatuation with media generated ideals. Whether it's the Ikea furniture Norton's character surrounds himself with or his desperate attempts to assimilate the Brad Pitt persona, Fincher spends much of the movie showing just how little we really think of ourselves.The much talked about violence acts as a catharsis, an escape from the pervasive ennui that envelopes their lives. Ironically, by subjecting the viewer to the many fight sequences throughout the film, we realize that the violence really does have a purpose. The point is that the characters have become so obsessed with trying to live up to preconceived ideals perpetrated by the media and coupled with the "effeminization" of the male sex (the film's concept, not mine)their only means of escape is the primal ritual of bashing one's face in. Some of these ideas have been addressed before, yet never have I seen them treated in such a beautifally brutal and kinetic way. Highly recommended.

Summary: Redefines "great movie"
Review: Are you tired of the same tired derivative movie formula? Are you sick of being dupped every week to go see the same meaningless film? Looking to see a great movie? "Fight Club" is the answer. I saw "Fight Club" because I admired Fincher's earlier work and enjoyed the source material by Palahniuk. "Fight Club" is one of the best films of all time. Propelled by amazing visuals, a riveting soundtrack and an undeniably haunting underlying philosophy, "Fight Club" will forever remian at the top of my favorites list. Despite the ranting of shallow critics, this film does not glorify violence, but rather uses it to show the extremes of discontentment. Is it not ironic that you are buying "Fight Club"?

Summary: **Fight Club- the novel vs the movie**
Review: I saw Fight Club in the theaters before I read the book. The movie was so powerful to me that I wanted to see if there was more. The idea of the movie was to make everyone credit go to zero which would created total chaos. In the novel, Tyler just wanted to have control over eveything. If you enjoyed this movie, I suggest you read the novel because it is even crazier than the movie. i cann't wait to see what extra, possible deleted scenes the DVD will have.... latas......

Summary: FINSHER'S BEST MOVIE
Review: when I first saw SEVEN, I thought that FINSHER'S work was pure genious but David has done it again! He took the two best actors of this generation and made a perfect blend.He made a great satire of the modern american way of life. I really liked the part where Norton looks at an IKEA magazine like he was looking at Miss May on a PLAYBOY magazine, it showed how perverted this society is. The filming is great. the only regret I have is that Fight Club was only nominated for best music at the academy awards, I think this movie deserves to have the award for best picture. Well, You can't argue with an event who gave 11 oscars to TITANIC. It is very hard to find in the movie history a contreversal movie with the best picture award.I guess i'll just enjoy it knowing that this movie is the best picture of the year.

Summary: Just a good movie. Really.
Review: First off, controversial content aside, this movie is just plain well done. The acting is superb, the script well written and the atmosphere, sets, camera-work and pacing are all excellent. David Fincher has created an amazing movie.It's violent, true, but I think the violence in this movie has been extremely overstated. Saving Private Ryan was worse than this, violence-wise, and (although I'm probably going out on a limb here), I'd say it's an inferior movie as well. So are many action movies. More to the point, unlike most Hollywood action flicks, the violence in this movie has a point, and is there for a reason. I can't say that I left this movie vowing to fight the evil corporations or to live faster, better, more spontaneously or anything. But I did come away thinking, which I think was more what was intended. At least try this movie out. It's well worth your time.

Summary: Pure Cinematic Adrenaline.
Review: Fantastic. A nearly flawless film that takes viewers along for the rush. No words can explain the joy of watching this film. Once is not enough! Buy this film. It should be any true moviegoers library. A film that takes chances, cuts no corners and does not soften its tone. This truly brilliant satire expects a lot from a viewer. It's been a while since a film lets go and lets the audience catch up. I saw it three times in the theaters and I'm counting down the days till its release on DVD. This was the best film of the decade, even better than Pulp Fiction. Edward Norton and Brad Pitt deserve metals for the work they did in this film. Fantastic. Ignore the critics. This film is the ride.
