An interesting and dark film.

Rating: 8/10 (8 May 2006)

Fight Club tells the story of a boring man with a dull life who meets an eccentric soap salesman named Tyler Durden. The two become friends, and end up starting a "fight club". A place where men can vent their anger by beating the crap out of each other. As the movie moves on, the fight club gets larger until it evolves into a terrorist organization, and a shocking twist ending reveals that Tyler Durden is more than he appears. Fight Club is a very interesting film. It's a film I recommend seeing more than once to take it all in. I recall not liking it at first, but when I saw it again, I took it for what it was. A brutally violent and in your face drama/comedy that deals with many of life's problems.
The always amazing Edward Norton plays the nameless lead role in the film with Brad Pitt as Tyler Durden. They both play their vastly different roles well, and the relationship between them is more believable than most movies about two friends. The writing and the build up to the ending are crafted so well that you almost get drawn right into the film. Fight Club is a dark and disturbing film that requires a thinker to view it properly. Very good.
8/10
