One of the All-Time Best

Rating: 9/10 (2 December 2007)

Being a movie fan such as myself, I am always hard-pressed to answer when asked to name my top five or ten favorite movies. This movie is always one of the first ones out of my mouth.
Some have complained about the violence and possible suggestion becoming a terrorist is okay, but they are missing the point. This movie is about defining yourself in your terms rather than letting others do it for you. The fighting is about making you focus on what's real, much like when Tyler swerves in front of a truck. With the prospect of your own mortality facing you, you realize what truly matters and what does not.
With such a powerful message delivered in such an unconventional way, I am still amazed it got made, but I am glad it did. This is by far one of the most thought-provoking films I have ever seen. If you have yet to see this film, by all means see it AS SOON AS YOU CAN. The time you spend watching it will be some of the most well spent in your entire life.
