My god, this film is good

Rating: 10/10 (19 November 1999)

Fight Club is an instant classic. It's a classic because it's the best film of all concerned, is the antidote to every sentimental schmaltzfest ever made, poses a really provocative question, and has a classic gag about children's films being 'tampered' with. I've occasionally wondered whether that actually happens... Although the last third isn't quite as good, the first two thirds are the best example of sheer energy in filmmaking since 'A Clockwork Orange'. And Meatloaf is very, very funny. Go and see this film. Now.
