Rating: 9/10 (13 July 2007)

A young disaffected worker (Edward Norton), Who has trouble sleeping. But when he meets an unusual soap salesman by the name of Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt). When these two becomes fast friends, they decided to start a Fight Club about men facing their emotions and anger. But their club becomes more ambitious, when they decides to fight the system and causing plenty of mayhem towards major corporate companies. While the disaffected worker is starting to fall in love with an odd woman named Marla Singer (Helena Bonham Carter) but the club has becoming more dangerous, careless and getting themselves into all kinds of trouble.
Directed by David Fincher (Alien 3, The Game, Se7en) made an very ambitious, black comedy with a twist. Norton and Pitt are excellent in the movie. Fincher shows plenty of rich visual style with great scenes, gags and terrific music score by The Dust Brothers. This was film was critically lambasted and an box office failure, when it was first released but it find life on DVD and it had an major cult following ever since.
The two disc set of this film. DVD has an sharp anamorphic Widescreen (2.40:1) transfer and an strong-Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound. The first disc has four commentary tracks with the cast, novelist and crew members of the film. Disc two has plenty of mini-featurettes, deleted scenes and more. This was probably, one of the most fascinating films of 1999. This DVD is digitally remastered in THX Picture Quality and Sound. Based on a novel by Chuck Palahniuk (Choke, Invisible Monsters). Screenplay by Jim Uhls (Flicker, Isobar, Jumper). Super 35. (**** ½/*****).
