Wow. Unbelievable story, directing, and acting

Rating: 10/10 (26 September 2011)

OK, I saw this movie when it came out on video, only because I was working at a video store. I watched it with my best friend and actually fell asleep (not because I was bored, just tired). I woke up when my friend yelled out. I didn't know what he was yelling about, so he had me rewind it. I had missed the part where the Narrator figures out that he is Tyler Durden. I was so impressed that I went out and bought the book, and have since become a huge Chuch Palanhuik fan, and this isn't even his best book, and I think the movie is actually better than the book. But the movie was fantastic. Brad Pitt is incredible in this film, as he usually it. I honestly believe he deserved an Oscar for this role. He hilarious and frightening. Plus the movie never slows down. Fincher is a master (aside from Alien 3, but that was just a terrible script, and he knew it). The man really knows how to work a twist (The Game, Seven). This should have at least been nominated for best picture. Much better than The Social Network, and people praised it like it was the greatest thing ever. I wish someone would make Invisible Monsters into a film as good as this one. It is by far more superior to Fight Club. I love to read and it's the only book I have ever read in one sitting. Love Palanhuik, love Fincher, love Pitt, Norton and Bonham-Carter.
