Requires Some Thought, honour this, and it will amaze you!

Rating: Null/10 (2 January 2003)

***SLIGHT SPOILERS*** We are all controlled by numerous factors, our job, our possesions, how much money we own and live by what society defines to be normal, and ultimately who we are lead by (Prime Minister, President etc...) but then even breakaway cultures end up having a leader, even if what they are lead to believe is not to be lead!
Many people in their own minds see themselves how they'd like to be, but this could only happen outside the control that is their own life, very few people actually have the guts to pick up the ball and run with it.
Fight Club has sooo many meanings and hidden messages that it requires a lot of thought to fully appreciate the film. I have seen the film twice and still keep reading into it more and more.
Ed Norton makes a fantastic appearance as the joint lead alongside Brad Pitt in a film that basically mocks us all for being such automatons, and what deserves most credit is Ed Nortons narration throughout the film, it is so monotone, and emotionless and thats just how it should be for this film.
Fight Club has a EXCELLENT twist (So DO NOT let anyone tell you anything about the film, just watch it), and if you watch it a second time or third you will notice by listening and watching carefully that there are BIG hints throughout yet anyone that tells you they sussed it first time round... well, I think they'd be lying.
It deserves 10/10 for storyline, directing, performances by the cast and a twist that rivals sixth sense. Nothing too fancy with the cinematography but it doesn't really need it.
I'm sorry to say that a lot of people will (and do) hate this film, possibly because they do not see what it is really about, and just see the fighting, which admittedly, if thats all it was about, it would be rubbish. It's just a shame that it won't be remembered as one of the greats, I read somewhere on IMDB that a GREAT film is not easy to watch and I have to perfect examples of this, Fight Club, and Requium For A Dream.

I'm sure I don't need to tell you but did you know there are single frame flashes of Tyler Durden while Jack (if that IS in fact his name) is at work and at the therapy groups? I bet once you've seen them you'll see them every time you watch the film without freeze frame. Also, in the scene where Tyler is burning Jacks hand, there is only one pair of legs under the table.
