Highly Recommended

Rating: 10/10 (6 December 2001)

Being a big fan of the actor-director combination of David Fincher and Brad Pitt in Seven, my expectations for Fight Club were very high and I wasn't disappointed. Add to the Fincher-Pitt combination the talents of Ed Norton and Helena Bonham Carter and you have a recipe for success.
Fight Club is a tremendously dark comic thriller that keeps you guessing from the moment it starts until the very end. I must admit to being very confused after seeing it for the first time but, after the second viewing I was totally taken by this incredible piece of work. And after seeing it a few more times since the subtle plot points that aren't noticed the first few times just become clear the more and more you watch it. I'm sure there must still be little points that I haven't noticed yet
To those who haven't seen it, the title is slightly misleading in that you may believe it is just a very violent film but don't be fooled, although there are scenes of violence, the film has so much more to offer than just fighting.
In short another great film from David Fincher
