A twist I would never have guessed.

Rating: 8/10 (17 November 1999)

Fight Club was nothing like I was expecting. I think based on the name I was expecting something more like Blood Sport. It does not concentrate on fighting and who is the best but more on the freedom, release and desire of a man to fight. It is about a strange friendship that helps liberate a man from the regular bonds of life. The formation of the fight club leads to bigger and grander schemes - all aimed at trying to free men in general from their normal passive responsibilities. The club has a powerful far reaching affect. I think it is a very clever movie and introduces things I have never seen in any other movie. It was refreshingly different.
