And I thought it was a "Van Damme-style" action movie...

Rating: 10/10 (19 June 2005)

I won't write a lot about this film, mainly because my English is very poor, but also because the most important things about "Fight Club" were said and written in previous comments. What I'd like to state here is: I sat down one night in front of my TV set and started watching "Fight Club", because I really hadn't anything better to do that very night. I remember I thought "it should be another "Van Damme-style" action movie, with a bunch of tough guys trying to beat the crap out one to another, with the power of their fists". Well, the title didn't gave me any hope of getting something better. The movie started and the fights didn't, at least for a long while. What i saw was a very philosophical movie that captured my attention from the very beginning to the very end. And yes, if I expected for some action, the action was there too... but just as an exclamation mark, to enforce the whole idea of the film. And when I reached the final scene, I didn't have a single doubt about it: it was the perfect end to such a great movie. Thanks, Lord, for not giving to me anything better to do that night that sit in front of my TV set and watch a movie.
