One of the greatest movies of our generation.

Rating: 10/10 (25 January 2001)

"Fight Club," directed by David Fincher, is one of the greatest movies in modern cinema history. Like Citizen Kane (not that Fight Club is in the same league as Kane), Fight Club is both misunderstood and loved. There are those among us who despise the movie for it's violence and political views, and there are those who love the movie for it's look at the effect of violence on society, it's style, and the wonderful acting by Pitt, Norton, Carter, and Aday. I am one of the latter. The movies also stands true to the messages in the novel of the same name by Chuck Palahniuk. Violence is not the answer. (This is one of the best lines in the movie: "Self-improvement is masturbation...self-destruction is the answer.") Anyway, I hope that others will discover this film for what it really is: a wonderful piece of art.
