The greatest movie I have ever seen

Rating: 10/10 (22 December 1999)

Fight Club really surprised me. It was written great, acted great and directed great. My friends told that this movie was great but I definitely didn't expect what I saw. FIGHT CLUB IS WITHOUT A DOUBT THE MOST ORIGINAL MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN. While I was whatching Fight Club I forgot it was just a movie. It grabbed hold of me and didn't let go till it was over. After the movie was over I sat at my seat for thirty minutes thinking about what it all meant (the movie has many deep underlying points but, you do not get a chance to think about them till after the movie is over). I won't tell you my conclusions about the the overall point of the movie (partly because I haven't completly decided on them yet). This movie is not just about a club for fighting as I originally thought, it is a gripping, deep drama about the disillusionment of generation X. It was acted out wonderfully by Edward Norton (the narrator). I believe and sincerely hope he gets an Oscar for his performance. Brad Pitt also did an excellent job pulling off the part of Tyler Durden. I loved him in this role (and i dont even like Brad Pitt). I feel his performance in fight club is his best performance ever!! Helena Bonham Carter did a role unlike any she has ever done before (she plays a likeable slutty druggy) and she pulls it off great!! David Fincher has made a masterpiece. Fight Club is by far his best movie by far. The way he directed this movie and the camera shots he got alone make this movie worth watching but, the acting and story make it the best movie I have ever seen. In conclusion this movie is wonderfully acted and gripping. I watched it for the first time and couldn't stop thinking about it for three days so, I went and watched it again. I am going to see it one more time and when it comes out on video I am going to buy it. I feel this movie has a good shot at next year's best picture award and I certainly hope it wins it. In conclusion all I can tell you is GO SEE IT TODAY.
