Phenominal and funny

Rating: 10/10 (6 June 2000)

I think people take this movie too seriously sometimes. Yes, Fight Club has some powerful messages about culture, society, work, identity, and abandonment. However, if you strip it all away - fight club is merely a simple tale about a guy finding himself. The look and feel of this movie is astounding. Every scene and movement has a Kubrick level of sophistication.

Fight Club is not for everybody. It also demands something of its audience. It is best to view this movie as a whole rather than its parts. Each part is weak in some way, but as a whole there is a powerful, visually stunning message that is not terribly complex, but still very intriguing.
