Summary: Near-perfect
Review: I can see why 'Fight Club' would be easy to hate, but I can't see how it's possible not to simultaneously love it.It is just so incredibly cool! David Fincher is clearly developing the filmmaking techniques of the future here, with special effects used non-obtrusively throughout the film. The man has a visual sense unmatched in mainstream cinema, and along with the clever and hilarious script this means the movie is like a long series of set pieces. Those who dislike 'Fight Club' (excluding people who just can't cope with the actually-not-so-explicit violence) typically do so because they either see an offensive "message" in it (fascist, anarchist or conformist depending on the reviewer), aren't impressed with the level of insight achieved, or feel the film is a mess of contradictory ideas. The first group is clearly deluded, as the people behind the film have expressed healthy scepticism about any ideologies presented in the film, but the other two have a point. The film DOESN'T offer a solution, and it IS a mess of ideas and emotions. That's because it is about our culture at the eve of the Millennium, which is just as confused and inconclusive. No, its (only) real flaw lies elsewhere, in the storytelling. The identity-twist near the end makes sense the second and third time you see the film, but on first viewing it seems artificial and constructed. Similarly, the faux-happy ending is too indistinguishable from genuine Hollywood schmaltz. These two points could have been communicated to the audience in a better way, but otherwise the film is just about flawless.

Summary: WONDERFUL
Review: First of all this film is easily easily one of the best films I have ever been fortunate to see. Even though I could not stop laughing throughout the majority of this film it would be extremely insulting to classify this piece of art as a comedy when it defies all possible labels. As a matter of fact the evil of labels is the thesis "Fight Culb" basically expresses; "You are not your job, or how much money you have in the bank." This film identifies itself with not only the anti-establisment element but more essentially as an anti-consumer advocate. Besides the insightful themes the viewer will also be delighted with the superb performances of both Norton and Pitt. I have seen all of Norton's work and the majority of Pitt's and I can declare without a doubt that their performances in "Fight Club" is by far the best of both their careers.

Summary: insanity or normality
Review: Fight Club which is stared mainly by: Edward Norton, Bradd Pitt and Hellna Bonham Carter, is one of the best movies that been made in past few years.
not because of its impressive visuals, not because of its good acting, not because of its flowing plot and smart text.
Its because of the idea behind its plot, the plot of the movie is the kind that developed with mach thought throughout the movie.
Things that you couldn't see or didn't take mach notice of you understand as you see the movie. This movie also takes use of ideas of some philosophers that tried to make people question things throughout time.
Fight club tries to make people question their society and their ways of living.
This movie is being repesented by the same people it critic and thing that makes it even more special.
In conclusion i recomend this movie to anyone that likes to watch good movies.

Summary: best movie of 1999
Review: Fight Club has definetly got to be one of the best movies ever. Brad Pitt and Edward Norton are awesome in this movie, and play their roles extremely well. I didn't like the movie the first time I watched it, because it was kind of hard to understand and comprehend it all at first, but after a 2nd and 3rd viewing I took it all in, and I believe it to be one of the best movies ever. Fight Club is full of sorts of symbolism and things of the sort, talking about life, and about people's feelings. I still am not sure what the true meaning of the movie is, but even past that, it's still a great movie. Buy it.

Summary: project: ability
Review: this movie, fight club, has so much ability. it has the ability to make you shut up for 133 minutes and just sit back and take in this beautiful movie. it has the ability to make you do things that have just been in the back of your mind, you didn't know they were there. it is elite and that my friend is true.

Summary: Bludgeoned with the Obvious
Review: _Fight Club_ is not the movie you might think from the trailers and previews. It *is* a movie about a lot of the stuff that often makes American Society of the late 20th century so brutally depressing and unfulfilling, particularly from the point of view of lower working-class men. As such, it has a lot of interesting things to say about bonding, identity and social standards. Because of this, I found the first half of the movie absorbing and witty in a dark kind of way, full of grim humour and cutting observations. After that, however, it really lost its grip on me. The narrator (Edward Norton) is a literally anonymous corporate drone whose only pleasure in life is ordering kitchsy items from catalogues. A period of insomnia sends him in search of emotional catharsis at various support groups for the terminally ill where he meets Myra (Helena Bonham Carter), another "voyeur." Shortly thereafter, he meets travelling soap salesman Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt), a virtual human phrasebook of "radical" thought and recipes for making explosives from household products. The two men discover the dubious transcendent experience of pummelling each other into oblivion and decide that this is what's missing from men's lives. Thus the Fight Club is born. And that's where the movie lost me. From that point onward, the cutting, and often humourous, observations about society were too much replaced by scenes of bare-chested men knocking each other about interspersed with Tyler Durden's pseudo-anarchistic dogma. For someone who's never thought much about society's self-sustaining and materialistic hierarchy, Durden's observations might sound enlightened, but for me it got old really fast. After about fifteen minutes, I felt as bludgeoned as the men in the club and it was all I could do not to turn the movie off. I was also disappointed in the way the Fight Club itself mutated from a place for men to find themselves and discover their power (however dubiously) into a kind of miltary organization that dehumanized the participants every bit as much as the society they were trying to combat. Although this is pretty standard cult development, I found it depressing. I look for movies of this sort to push the boundaries in new and different ways and offer new ideas, if not solutions. _Fight Club_ didn't do that. It fell back on the same old revolutionary script and became just another movie about guys blowing things up while becoming the thing that they hate. Was that the point? I didn't know, and I got the impression that the movie didn't know, either. It left me with a real feeling of futility. The acting is actually quite good, and a _Sixth Sense_ type plot twist towards the end goes a long way towards redeeming the middle portions of the film but doesn't quite manage it. _Fight Club_ is probably a good movie to see if you're feeling angry with the world and need to have your anger validated. But don't expect any real answers, because it doesn't offer any.

Summary: Not at all what I had expected
Review: David Fincher's movie isn't at all what the title implies. Okay, so there's fighting but there's definitely a lot more to it. The movie begins with narrator Edward Norton as an insomniac who solves his problem by crying it out at support meetings surrounded by dying people. That is until Marla (Helena Bonham Carter) turns up. Also a tourist she ruins his sessions, until he goes to live with Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt) after his flat is burnt down. Both men manage to fight out their pent-up aggression and Norton almost manages to forget about the enigmatic Marla. Gradually this 'fight club' grows into an expression against a comsumerist society with rules and orders. The movie poses several important questions about the nature of society and the nature of the self, comparing the rules and order of society with the rules and order of the self. Certainly on this level it should be applauded as being in a recent rush of intelligent Hollywood movies, and this is definitely one of the best of the lot. With regards to acting it's a real gem, with Norton proving once more that he is capable of just about anything a director can throw at him. As Tyler, Pitt adds to all those annoyingly unnoticed superb performances that he's notched up and Helena Bonham Carter plays against type marvellously. It's also beautifully shot, demonstrating the characters' lust for violence well. The violent scenes are not for the faint-hearted but there's also nothing gratuitous here. Plus, there's an ending that makes you reevaluate everything that's gone on before. This is scary, thought-provoking and at times absolutely hilarious viewing.

Summary: Best movie of all time.
Review: "Fight Club" is the best movie of all time. It has two of the best performances ever by an actor. Edward Norton and Brad Pitt are those two. Edward Norton is my favortie actor of all time and Brad Pitt is one of my 15 favorite actors. They make this movie come alive so well. Henla Boham Carter is also very good. She is also one of my favorite actress. Suprsingly Meat Loaf did a good job,which was unexpected. Every singel person in this movie was good not a bad performance to be found any where. The best stroy line and the best plot EVER! Probly the best job ever done by a director. David Fincher is the best director of all time. He is my favorite director. Edited every well. Shoot great.
Everything about this movie is great. Not a thing wrong with it.
The DVD is also the best DVD of all time. All the features are great. I can watch it all day every day!

Summary: Amazing
Review: An amazing mind bending movie. I was enthralled in the first five minutes. Different than any other movie I have ever seen; it is one of my all time favorite. How can you not like Brad Pitt and Ed Norton shirtless, and sweaty, the fact that the plot is also amazing is a wonderful bonus. Check out the book, it's even better. Not for the faint of heart or stomach.
