professionally produced bore

Rating: Null/10 (29 January 2001)

fight club is one of those movies i like writing review for, because it can be summed up very easily and quickly. In this case, it is a technically superior and intellectually empty movie. it repeatedly pummels the audience with its main message - consumerism is bad; you should choose for your own life; be an individual without blindly following other people bla bla. tell us something new please. wrap all these extremely clichéd messages in some fancy camera work and MTV-style storytelling and you have fight club. overall this movie gives the impression of coming from the hands of a skillful yet immature teenager. An average movie.
