David Fincher did a very good job in making this film. Brad Pitt, Edward Norton, and Helena Bonham Carter all give excellent performances as the roles they play.
Here's how it goes down: We start in a room where the narrator (we're not given his name) has a gun pointed in his mouth. Tyler Durden (Pitt)is holding the gun. The narrator flashes back to another point in the movie. He had insomnia, and he couldn't sleep. on the DVD player, if you slow it down at the right time, you can see Brad Pitt in the picture. The narrator goes to support groups to see real pain people have. Eventually, he gets to sleep. Really good sleep. However, he loses his sleep yet again when Marla Singer (Carter), a drug-addict who has no diseases at all, comes into his support groups. They talk over who gets which support group on which days. They agree on it, but when they exchange numbers for when if they want to switch, his doesn't have a name, so she wonders which one it is..."Cornelius, Rupert, Travis? Any of the stupid names you give out each night?"
On a flight, he meets Tyler Durden. He talks about how the safety cards in the pocket in front of the seats show calm faces when experiencing a 30 000-foot escape or 600 mph drop. When I first saw this, I realized that he's right. Why the f*** would anyone look calm when they're about to die, and during a crash of all things? After meeting again at a bar since the narrator's condo blew up, Tyler asks the narrator to hit him. The narrator pulls away from the scene to talk about Tyler. He gets the film go from one reel to the next. He likes to add pornography into children's films. He also urinates in the soups. They eventually get in a fight and they go over to Tyler's house where they will stay.
Eventually, Fight Club is assembled, with many men involved. 8 rules of Fight Club: 1. You do not talk about Fight Club. 2. You do not talk about Fight Club. 3. When someone taps, goes limp, or yells Stop, the fight is over. 4. Two people to a fight. 5. One fight at a time. 6. No shirts, no shoes. 7. Fights will go on as long as they have to. 8. If it's your first night in Fight Club, you have to fight.
A lot of other things occur in the movie and the twist is really cool. This is all I'm going to say. Watch the movie. You might be surprised.
