Fight Club (Widescreen Edition) description
All films take a certain suspension of disbelief. Fight Club takes perhaps more than others, but if you're willing to let yourself get caught up in the anarchy, this film, based on the novel by Chuck Palahniuk, is a modern-day morality play warning of the decay of society. Edward Norton is the unnamed protagonist, a man going through life on cruise control, feeling nothing. To fill his hours, he begins attending support groups and 12-step meetings. True, he isn't actually afflicted with the problems, but he finds solace in the groups. This is destroyed, however, when he meets Marla (Helena Bonham Carter), also faking her way through groups. Spiraling back into insomnia, Norton finds his life is changed once again, by a chance encounter with Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt), whose forthright style and no-nonsense way of taking what he wants appeal to our narrator. Tyler and the protagonist find a new way to feel release: they fight. They fight each other, and then as others are attracted to their ways, they fight the men who come to join their newly formed Fight Club. Marla begins a destructive affair with Tyler, and things fly out of control, as Fight Club grows into a nationwide fascist group that escapes the protagonist's control.

Fight Club, directed by David Fincher (Seven), is not for the faint of heart; the violence is no holds barred. But the film is captivating and beautifully shot, with some thought-provoking ideas. Pitt and Norton are an unbeatable duo, and the film has some surprisingly humorous moments. The film leaves you with a sense of profound discomfort and a desire to see it again, if for no other reason than to just to take it all in. --Jenny Brown

♥♥♥♥♥ The ultimate cult film, IMO
This is an absolutely original movie, unlike anything else. Its a satire with a really grim sense of humor. Designed to encourage thought rather than to just entertain. The situations are just presented straightforwardly & the audience is left to make up its own mind. I'm grateful somebody's making intelligent films like this & we get a choice & an occasional change of pace. This is quite possibly the weirdest mainstream movie out there & extremely worth the viewer's trouble. The 3 leads are fantastic & they all do a top-notch job. I read the book after seeing the flick & I'm glad I did it in that order. The movie's plot twist wasn't ruined for me beforehand & I got a better understanding from the book. For example, in the book its explained that Tyler Durden gets all his clothes from the lost-and-found at bus stations & so forth. So you see why he dresses so strangely. Again, only try this one if you're looking for something unusual.
