Bad ... Scary Bad

Rating: 1/10 (15 December 2006)

If you're looking to waste an evening with over-indulgent tripe then this just might be the film for you. David Fincher has made an entire career out of making films that cater to the lowest common denominator and the basest of instincts and with "Fight Club" he outdoes himself. What's worse than Fincher's ham-fisted direction is the performance of the non-actors Brad Pitt and Edward Norton. Everything they do tends to either be over-the-top bad or so very unforgettable as to almost be non-existent. From uninspiring frame one to the "thank God it's over" final frame this pictures drags itself around on it's half baked premise like the last steps of someone on their last breath of life. Save yourself the time and seek out something far more substantial than this.
