"'Fight Club' pulls you in, challenges your prejudices, rocks your world and leaves you laughing" (Rolling Stone). Brad Pitt ("12 Monkeys", "Seven"), Edward Norton ("Primal Fear," "American History X") and Helena Bonham Carter ("Mighty Aphrodite," "A Room With A View") turn in powerful "performances of which movie legends are made" (Chicago Tribune) in this action-packed hit. A ticking-time-bomb insomniac (Norton) and a slippery soap salesman (Pitt) channel primal male aggression into a shocking new form of therapy. Their concept catches on, with underground "fight clubs" forming in every town, until a sensuous eccentric (Bonham Carter) gets in the way and ignites an out-of control spiral toward oblivion.

favoloso!!!!!!!!!!
allora, penso di averlo visto una decina di volte e, ogni volta, mi piace sempre di più! Brad Pitt è bravissimo ma l'anima del film è Edward Norton uno dei più talentusi attori in circolazione oggi. (dimenticavo, con Pitt ci doveva essere anche Norton, per il premio al miglior carattere stilato da Empire, perchè alla fine Tyler Durden è Norton-Pitt)

The Bottom Line:

Despite having acquired a considerable cult following, this movie is little more than artfully constructed eye-candy--pretty boys without shirts for the girls to enjoy, and explosions and anarchy for the boys.

What do you get when you adapt a worthless novel? A worthless film
Oh man, oh man, talk about a film that doesn't deserve all the cult like respect it gets, then let's talk about Fight Club.

Misunderstood by practically every mindless drone who, after watching it for the first time, went out and started their own clubs leading to severe, yet hilarious, injuries and other goings ons, what we have here is a violent nosedive by David Fincher who crafted a supreme piece of neo-noir called Seven.

The philosophy of the film is not profound nor deep, nothing penned by the hand of Chuck Palahniuk is capable of this. I know a guy, whom I respect, who likes Palahniuk but he KNOWS that he's simply literary junk food; not everyone is hopeless, I guess.

Hey, guess what? Even non-conformists conform to rules, and mob mentality is bad and stuff, because you have total freedom but at what cost and blah blah blah, hey, great, I don't care, tell it to the 250lb meathead. Losing all hope is freedom; laughable, utterly laughable.

NOT as laughable, though, as the lauding with pride of the negative comments made by critics in the 2 disc edition's pamphlet.

Cute.

Sick and tired of being sick and tired
Sick and tired of corporate American greed, Norton's character seeks comfort in a few weird places. He eventually meets Pitt's character on a plane ride home. Circumstance puts them together soon after and the Fight Club emerges. The end result is bringing down the system and that is a metaphor for what Norton's character goes through till the end. Add Helena Carter's character, Marla Singer, recently in the Sweeney Todd remake, and you have the dark necessary to truly make this movie work.

Be honest with yourself, did you notice the Brad Pitt "Blips" the first time? If you said yes then you are either a LIAR or you like to expand your mind...Whether you did or not, this movie is one of the best.

This comedy is pitch black and brought to you by Director David Fincher as an adaptation of a novel by now famed writer Chuck Palahniuk. Ed Norton and Brad Pitt give a most incredible performance made sharp by the script and sweet visual effects.
