Wildly funny!

Rating: 10/10 (6 May 2005)

I was skeptical about seeing this movie, wondering if it was going to be merely a bunch of guys beating the crap out of each other. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it spoke deeply about the human psyche and the ease with which it can be manipulated. Fight Club was enormously funny, but in a darker sort of way. Edward Norton and Brad Pitt both do a fantastic job of setting the tone for the whole picture. It has become one of my favorite movies, and that's saying something as I'm not easily impressed!
One tip however, do not try and take this movie entirely seriously. It is meant to be a dark comedy and taking it seriously will only ruin it for you. The most frightening part of this movie is that, ridiculous though it seems, it is entirely plausible. The movie examines a cult-like mind set, yet allows one to have a good time as well.
