More than just a good fight.

Rating: 9/10 (17 October 1999)

You have to see Fight Club to know how good it really is. A 20 something (Ed Norton) is unhappy with the life he should be happy with. He's what society thinks everyone should be, yet he doesn't want the role of "sanity's child". Nothing helps him past this unhappy life until he meets a strange soap salesman on an airplane. Enter Tyler Durdan (Brad Pitt). During a night of drinking, the two begin to fight. Without argument or hatred, they just fight. Ed Norton feels release in the insanity of merely hitting someone with his fists. He begins doing this with Brad Pitt so frequently others take notice. They start Fight Club. People with similar problems as Ed Norton find a similar release. This is only a part of the movie. The fighting in Fight Club is more of a focus point, a "bond that ties", between everyone who's unhappy with what they are and with what everyone else wants them to be. This is the kind of movie that makes you doubt your own thinking about who you are and what you want to become with what little life you have. Not to mention all the humor you'll find all the way. This is a must see movie for anyone. Anyone. It'll be a couple of hours well spent.
