One of my favorites

Fight Club was one those films which fall into the category of "loved it or hated it "
I stand with the former loved it
The premise of the film is to fight back
Psychological and physical violence both leave scars
Both will heal over time, but the mental scars go deeper
Fight Club gives people the chance to come face to face with the antagonist, be it a stranger or someone you have known all of your life
Stranger's sometimes have more control over your life than you do
Fight Club has a nice plot twist and is always throwing in new little subplots' to keep you on your toes
Edward Norton is excellent as the narrator and one of the best actors to emerge over the last 15 years
Brad Pitt turns in a great performance as Tyler Durden the "partner" of Norton
Meatloaf also turns in great performance as Bob, whose mental scars are almost as large as his physical ones
Helena Bonham Carter is worth seeing as Marla Singer the woman who feels left out and realizes that a woman isn't the only one who can feel downtrodden and abused

The most intelligent movie ever made! Seriously.

I RARELY watch the same movie twice... so of course I wouldn't go to the same movie twice in the theatre. I did for Fight Club. 2 times in the theatre, every time it's on TV and finally I bought the Collector's Edition DVD, which I've watched twice so far.

The movie is an intelligent view of what we have become as consumers. The fighting is a symbol for the anger that we have to deal with and keep inside every day. If someone told you that this movie sucks because it's about a bunch of people who are angry so they decided to create an underground fight club, ignore him/her.

I won't spoil anything, but if you're the kind of person who is amazed by how people accept obvious "insincerity" and are happy with it, then this movie is for you. If you think it's stupid to spend your money on designer underwear then this is also a movie for you.

If this movie was created in 2007 or 2008, I'm sure that Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt) would've been asking: Why is Paris Hilton famous?, Why would anyone waste time watching TMZ and eventually create a new breed of parasites that sticks to the "celebrities" and intrude their personal lives in order to satisfy the curiosity of the... mmmm.. I really don't know what to call anyone who's giving that much of attention to actors and singers whom according to the logic, they are here to entertain us, but somehow something happened and they've became the most important figures in the society and we are supposed to follow them as role models! I'm sure he'd be asking about the factory that's creating all those teenagers with too much make-up who are giving us an idea about the next generation.

I can go on and on... JUST WATCH IT!

An anonymous worker in an automobile company (Edward Norton), thoroughly stricken by ennui over his faceless consumer identity, rebels against society when he falls under the influence of the charismatic and subversive Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt). Soon, the two are forming "fight clubs," where men beat each other senseless, and spearheading an anarchistic guerilla group.

This film has a great first act and shows signs of becoming a first-rate indictment of our commercial culture (never mind the irony that it comes in the form of a big Hollywood movie). Unfortunately, it derails about the time that Tyler Durden comes on stage. From this point, it becomes progressively sillier, and what strikes many appreciative viewers as a primal cry of rage against conformity seems to me more like a temper tantrum with powerful explosives. It fails to deliver a coherent message, but the high caliber of the cast and the skill of director David Fincher keep things watchable.

Fight Club Steelbook Edition

The movie edition is the special edition with all the special features - just enclosed in a thin metal casing. I was impressed that the metal casing is the exact same dimensions as a typical plastic dvd casing. It just seems more substantial and fitting for a movie of this calibre. I will definitely buy the Steelbook edition of Man on Fire, and I wish more movies were available in this casing. The movie itself is great, and the special features are very deep with several commentaries and loads of behind the scenes extras. I recommend this version for anyone who likes Fight Club considering the Steelbook edition is cheaper than just the regular special edition.

"'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.
