I think that most people miss the point on this movie. Yes, it is a great action film with great fight scenes. Yes, Brad Pitt is a really good bad guy. Yes, The music is great. Yes, the apocalyptic regime known as "Project Mayhem" is led by an anarchistic genius. The point of this movie is that we as a society have grown so accustomed to being a part of the big picture that we forget to be individuals. Yeah, yeah; I am too analytical; whatever! "Generation X" followed the "ME Generation" and was followed by the "Why Generation". I am a member of Gen-X and I know that Gen-X was and is lost in mediocrity. This film will ring true always because of one simple fact; most people are sheep. Even the people who join the fight clubs and "Project Mayhem" are following someone else's lead. Don't you see it. Don't you understand the glaring, screaming point of this film - that most of us are just cogs in a big machine; but we can break away. I love this movie. I love the action. I love the dialogue, the acting, the direction, the editing, the music... But what I really love is the underlying truth that is layered throughout the film and brought to the surface without any pomp and circumstance. We are all desperate for something more, something to be a part of, something that will make us feel (pain, hate, love, anger, rage, emotions of every scale). This is a great film in every way, and Brad Pitt, Edward Norton and Helena Bonham-Carter deserved, at the very least Oscar nods, but the film was too controversial, to gratuitously violent and destructive. The supporting cast, including a then unknown Jared Leto, Meatloaf (yeah, the singer) who shines, and several other familiar faces, was phenomenal. As a hollywood blockbuster, this film had it all. But, more importantly it had something deeper. You can disagree with me if you are not the "artsy-fartsy" type (like me), but the truth remains the same, this film had a point, made the point and took no prisoners along the way. So, live a little, and watch this movie. Then go out and make something of yourself. Even if you don't get to beat the crap out of someone for fun.Read full review
FIGHT CLUB has always been one of of favorite films, since the day it was released. For some individuals, the movie may be hard to follow, as we have been told. Are you familiar with Jekyll & Hyde-type personalities?? Its a GREAT MOVIE about a person with multiple personalities that one day, just decides to unknowingly make "the" change, and show the world his true opposite. The movie offers A LOT of GREAT ACTION, and GREAT PERFORMANCES by Ed Norton and Brad Pitt. We consider FIGHT CLUB to be one of Brad Pitts Best Performances!! VERY FUNNY, Entertaining, Thought-Provoking, and will keep your interest from beginning to end!! You may need to watch the movie 5-10 times to see all of the action "blips", that you may not see the first couple times of viewing. FIGHT CLUB is DEFINITELY on our Top Ten List of BEST MOVIES!! This particular 2002 DVD version is the ReMastered Anamorphic Widescreen version (UPC 024543044796). Buy It or Rent It?

What do I like about this movie? The cast is amazing - every role is filled by an actor that fits it like a glove - Norton, Pitt, support cast - all great! The story is solid - as you've already read, there is an unexpected (yet very awesome) twist at the end. You're also not left confused, which can be a big problem in movies of this nature - the movie does a great job of recapping and leaving the viewer in awe. Even the soundtrack is good! What didn't I like? Honestly, I only feel the movie could be improved if they had made it a little bit longer and added a few more complex events (if you know what the twist is, you should know what I mean). I feel it would help to drive the point home, and make the viewer even more intrigued. Keep in mind: The language, violence, and sexual content of this movie are why it is rated R, not the best for young'ins. Not the best date movie in the world either. Awesome movie to watch with a group of buddies - don't try it at home. ;) *I have published the same review under multiple items due to the similar nature of the products-in this case the movie content between various DVD versions.Read full review
First time I watched this movie I was in college and hadn't slept in 3 days and didn't know what I was in for. Having watched it many times since then I have to say I am always repeatedly more impressed again and again. There are more layers than an onion to be uncovered from a zany movie of testosterone fed fun to a deep social commentary on the American culture. This movie has so many memorable quotes and anecdotes the dialogue could be considered poetic prose. Enter the mind of an unsatisfied insomniac and take a ride through a mental breakdown where life the universe and everything are questioned and the answer isn't 42 this time. There is so much going on I guarantee every time you watch it you'll discover something new whether it be as subtle as the spliced in frames of foreshadowing or something big like a new perspective on life. Anyone who has worked at a dead end job, hit rock bottom, or lacked love in their life will appreciate this movie. Next time you need a boost you just may find yourself wondering "What would Tyler Durden do?"Read full review
If you're like I was and haven't seen this yet, do so. Also, if you're like I was and didn't know the plot twist, READ NOTHING about this movie before seeing it and don't let anyone tell you. The plot twist is such that the next time you see the film, it is completely different. I was lucky: I got to see it as it would've been in its first run in the theater--no spoilers, complete innocent. Having said that, it was also a pleasure to see that it wasn't all guys bonding over fist fights. The fighting is almost secondary to the main plot drives, but since it didn't give anything away, that's all you ever saw in the trailers during its first run. If you do know the plot twist, I still recommend this for its anarchistic black humor and great performances. Brad Pitt sure but Edward Norton and Helena Bonham Carter are superb also. Dark dark dark, but fun fun fun. Yeah, even from a woman's point of view (but admittedly not a girly glitter pink fluff sort of woman).Read full review
