Bizarre. Disturbing. Funny.

Rating: 10/10 (22 October 1999)

I'm going to go ahead and join the majority of reviewers by pushing this movie. It is definitely one of my favorites this year. The plot twists are incredible, and Norton gives the performance of the year! It is arguable better than the one given in American History X, and deserves to be nominated for another Oscar this year. Norton and Pitt's performances are reason enough to see this film.
I went into the movie expecting a repeat of what I saw on the previews. What I got was a movie that delves into the minds of twisted, complex characters. Fincher does such a wonderful job laying out the story... there is never a point in the movie where I thought that time was wasted. What I really loved about the movie was its look. It had dark imagery all through the film, which the soundtrack contributed to. Besides from that, the visual effects were utterly convincing, and I'm sure they will leave many viewers squeamish. They were so convincing, in fact, that many viewers will be unable to look past the violence and see the genius in this film.
Fight Club was well worth the ticket price.
