A film to love or hate.

Rating: 9/10 (9 June 2001)

Alot seems too have been written about this movie already! Which, I suppose, would please Mr Fincher whatever the content of those words.
And perhaps that's the whole point about this film. It's not necessarily about any single topic.... male isolation, mental illness, violence, a sense of belonging etc etc..read all the possible and probable 'messages' that this film delivers elsewhere. This film is designed to make you THINK.
If you don't want to think, fine, I too like to watch Bruckheimer's rubbish for pure entertainment. But if you want to walk away feeling "Wow, I truly have seen a masterpiece ", then see it!

You don't have to 'get it'. Don't feel lost if you think you ARE lost in the plot! Just wallow in it. Movies like this happen rarely.
Watch it twice, three times. (The impression is still there for me.) This is simply one of the best movies ever conceived and delivered.
