I never knew it was so good!

Rating: Null/10 (19 March 2001)

When this movie came out, I had no desire at all to see it. The commercials portrayed the movie as something like a modern underground boxing ring. All the reviewers could talk about was how shamelessly violent it was. By letting myself fall victim to bad publicity, I missed out seeing this movie on the big screen. Where was the marketing for this movie, I ask you?
This movie was terrific. An incredible social commentary of our time period. Makes us question our daily values and routines. Makes us... well, look at Brad Pitt in a whole new light! He gave one of the best performances I've seen in his career. Of course, Edward Norton was incredible, his dry wit and knowing narration are a key component here. A very pleasant surprise for a doubting Thomas here!
