Reviews & Ratings for
Fight Club (1999)

This movie is dark and disturbing, however, it is equally smart and stylistic. I found it hard to watch at points, but I couldn't turn my eyes away. Fight Club makes many bold statements against the modern consumer-driven society, and produces Norton's best performance and Pitt's second best (12 Monkeys).

Watch this movie, and watch it again with some of your more intelligent friends.

Wow! This is film is a really interesting and unique view on toxic masculinity, and consumerism, the story beats of this film are amazing, the pacing is just great, the look, colures, and feel of the film is spectacular, and the use of music is really good too. That ending is just immaculate, defiantly one of my favorite endings, and film.

I watched movie after imdb list
It has so many twists that i never understood movie at first watch i watched it three times then i get it
Can't say anything about plot just watch it

The first rule of Fight Club is- You do not talk about Fight Club, but I'm gonna make an exception here. This movie is so good that it needs to be talked about! Brad Pitt as Tyler Durden is just amazing. I love movies that are complicated and a little hard to understand, but when you do understand they blow your mind! The scene where the protagonist pretends to get bashed up by his boss is just amazing (so good that bollywood had to copy). Each time I watch this movie I find out something new, there are so many amazing elements that you can't fathom by just watching it once.

There are movies which entertain you, and there are movie which provoke you. Fight Club is in the grey area.

Jack(Not named in the movie, but called the same in the script) is a typical everyday guy, trying to find the perfect balance between the expansions of his personal effects and his bank account. He runs into Tyler Durden, an impossibly self centered man with radical ideas who's sexy enough that it's illegal. They start a Fight club, a place where (quoting Jack) you can be GOD for a few minutes. How Marla singer fits into this, Fight Club metamorphosizing into something more sinister and the real identity of Tyler Durden forms the plot.

Edward Norton plays the narrator, an everyday man suffering from insomnia before finding a cure that satisfies his inner demons. He is slyly hilarious and brings the necessary gravitas to the character. But the character to stay with you is Tyler Durden played by Brad Pitt in a career defining role. While he oozes charm effortlessly, he also brings a lot to the table which is absent in the original Chuck Palahniuk's novel. Helena Bonham Carter plays Marla Singer, a tragic dark mess with sufficient charm. You won't even notice the other characters until familiar faces like Jared Leto pop up once in a while.

David Fincher took quite a gamble in directing Fight Club after the debacles of his previous releases. This was a movie which was way ahead of its time(and was expectedly rejected by the then audience). But his faith in the source material paid off in the long run, and Fight Club is now considered to be one of the best films ever made and rightfully so. The cinematography is impeccable, consistent with Fincher's works. The dialogues are sure to stick with you for years to come. Almost every line Tyler speaks is frame-worthy. The vinegar burn scene is the stand-out, though. Special mention to the opening credit graphics.

I made sure this review stays spoiler free, but the internet is not so kind. Stay away from spoilers if you don't want to ruin the experience of your life.

A compelling storyline with a powerful message to its audience. David Fincher has combined social awareness with a brilliant plot twist in this masterpiece which explains its high rating, placing it in the Top 10 Highest Rated Movies.
Edward Norton plays a similar character in this movie as he did in 'Primal Fear(1996)'. Easily one of the greatest plot twists and endings to a movie ever, the audience is often left with unanswered questions and forced into thinking outside the box. Every single character in the movie has a story to tell, contributing to the plot.
A movie buff or not, one MUST watch Fight Club. Credits to the story writer -Chuck Palahniuk as well.

We are being brainwashed by our own kind. The increasing consumerism will swallow us all. This movie is a masterpiece and so is this book it's based on! Norton and Pitt are excellent as always. Must watch. Must, must, must watch. A mind-blowing movie that will change something inside you. And the ideas Tyler Durden comes up with are nothing short of revolutionary.
