Rating: Summary: You have to see this movie at least twice Review: I originally saw this movie in the theater. It was great then and even better now that I've seen it again on DVD. If you don't like to think during your movies, this isn't for you...its one of the most thought provoking I've ever seen. Lots of interesting self-analysis that goes on during the movie.
Rating: Summary: Particular Viewpoint Review: I liked the film because it gave a particular viewpoint of the book. I also very much enjoyed the book and most of the time, I don't enjoy the movie version of books I enjoy. This was the exception. Good Job.
Rating: Summary: Excellent movie, but beware the message Review: I found Fight Club to be an excellent movie, as the title of my review suggests. Although ultraviolent, this movie is also well crafted with spot on direction. It's also a visually stunning movie with cleverly interweaved effects. This aspect of the movie is too often ignored. I should say however that I was a little disturbed by the overall message. I happen to like Ikea furniture with its always fashionable Scandinavian design.
Rating: Summary: 3 words:WHAT A RUSH!! Review: Wow,what an incredible piece of cinema.At first,when i was watching i didn't like it too much,but as the movie progressed,it started to get interseting,and more wild,and that is what makes a movie.My hat goes off to David Fincher for puttin together,one of the greatest fight movies since Rocky.It is also one of Edward Norton's finest performance's since American History X.The climax of the movie is incredible,what happens is:wrong, ain't tellin you, buy the movie and find out.
Rating: Summary: WOW! Review: Before I saw this movie, all I'd heard was negative reviews. I rented it, expecting a horrible movie, but when I was done watching it all I could say was "Wow!" Fight Club is unlike any movie you've seen in a long time. I bought it for DVD, and again all I could say was "Wow!" This is an amazing DVD packed with everything you could ever want on two discs. This is a movie that you think about nonstop after you see it, so buy this DVD!
Rating: Summary: My Second Favorite Movie, A Thorough DVD Package Review: The DVD has all sorts of excellent features and bonuses, but they can only eclipse the movie Fight Club for so long.Fight Club is neck and neck with my favorite movie The Matrix, which are too much to compare, so I'll forget about that. More importantly, this movie about men seeking a purpose to life through fighting and non-violent revolution (they only fight friendily amongst themselves =). Many questions arise from the narrator (the most versatile Edward Norton) about what he really wants: To continue leading Fight Club after establishment? To participate in worldwide revolution? Can I stop it? This leads to plenty of plot development and twists, in addition to... The philosophy and the assumed answers make this movie a pleasure especially for those searching for answers. In particular, I believe teenagers like me would enjoy this movie immensely if they can understand a plot. Besides the violence you see in the title and advertisements, Fight Club is an insanely intelligent movie. Even my violence-makes-nauseous aunt thought it was great. Ugh, I dunno what more I should say because you need to see it too. I don't see how anyone can dislike or deny its look, feel, or ideas.
Rating: Summary: Better Late than Never Review: Not only was it a great movie, but a great cinematic experience as well. Well written, acted, filmed. A couple of spots seemed to drag just for a bit, but they picked right up again (or maybe I just missed something, which would have been easy to do since this movie was an a visceral assault on your mind.) I feel this film deserves a second viewing to catch it all. Not at all what you expect from the trailer. Theatres need to strictly enforce the admittance of minors to this film so ignorant teens dont start up fight clubs all over. This is not about fighting in the usual sense. More about fighting for your sense of self. If you don't understand parts, ask someone who saw the movie with you. Talk about it. It will come to you. If you still don't get it, it's too late for you.
Rating: Summary: All Generation X Men Must See This Review: I originally did not want to see this movie because of the title. I thought it was just another violent, pointless movie. Not the case. Although, as many, I did not see this in the theatre's I bought the DVD out of encouragement from a friend and interest in the movie. This has become one of my favorite movies of all time. This movie is outstanding and makes powerful statements about society, and especially men today. If you are a generation x man you must see this. This movie is very well acted by Edward Norton, and Brad Pitt, and very well directed. I have not yet read the book, but plan to. The picture quality is great on this anamorphic DVD, and the sound editing is great (nominated for an academy award in this category.)
Rating: Summary: Really a thinking movie (Simply Incredible!) Review: Alright, alright, so everyone knows now that this is a really good movie. Well, perhaps not EVERYONE. So maybe I can change a few minds with this review...? WEll, this movie starts off looking nothing like a thinking movie, if you base your opinion solely on the titel and a lot of the trailer info that they gave. But as soon as you start watching it, you realize how much thinking the cast and crew did in it, and how much thinking you need to do to pick up on everything. And trust me, no single viewing will reveal everything! Also, this movie is borderline psychotic. And you feel THAT, too. By the end of this movie I was beginning to feel just as insane as our hero (played by Edward Norton). And the ending. Well, let's just say that the ending... Well, not to be stereotypical, but you have to watch it for yourself. And watch it you will. But remember, "The first rule of Fight Club is never talk about Fight Club".
Rating: Summary: One of the Most originally hidden Movies Review: This is one of my favorite movies of all time. it is very high on "the list." Acting: Superb. I haven't seen this type of acting by two young people, that people don't like because they thing they're cocky, in all my life. Brad Pitt gives such a convincing performance as the do-anything leader of Fight Club, and Edward norton's character. Now Edward Norton, man, can you picture a better insomniac than him? I thought not. The acting is down right convincing and is helped by the unbelievable screenplay. Plot: An insomniac is fed up with life and doesn't know how to live it. He try's social groups but they make it worse. Then he meets Tyler Durden and the fun begins to rip into your chest like you've never experienced. THey stard Fight Club, a way to get the pressures of life off your back. Then they take it a step further and, well, I shouldn't say more because of the ending. The ending will blow away your mind! It will not make sense at first but then you can see it. With all this said, when I first saw this movie I was a little dissapointed. It was not what I expected. Then I saw it a second time and I was motionless. The hidden secrets in this movie are what caught me in. They are the reason that this movie is beyond your minds capacity. If you think you missed out on something, you did. So just watch it again and you will find it. It has so many interesting and provocative points on life, women, men, society, leaders, brothers, government, movies, homosexuality (this might take some time to figure out), heterosexuality, puberty in your 30's, and the list is endless. If you thought that those are some odd points, wait till you see the movie. This film is dark and always in your face. It doesn't escape from you. it is almost as if you become Edward Norton's character. You begin to feel him and feel his emotions. A note to everyone: Go see this movie with an open mind. Then you will allow yourself to see the modern classic titles Fight Club. I have always been pulled in by dark, controversial, disturbing, funny, and odd images. This movie has all of that in one. One may disagree with me on all of this becuase they missed the message that it was giving out. I can't say the message becuase it will give away the story. Another point is that this plot has so many stories hidden within the obvious that you will HAVE to see it again. You should love this movie's forceful views on society. It shows this through hidden views. Ancient Greek Mythology must be read with the concept that one thing means another and that one thing is hiding behind another. This is what Fight Club is. It is a hidden masterpiece that will never cease to entertain the viewer.
