Editorial Review: Description: "'Fight Club' pulls you in, challenges your prejudices, rocks your world and leaves you laughing" (Rolling Stone). Brad Pitt ("12 Monkeys", "Seven"), Edward Norton ("Primal Fear," "American History X") and Helena Bonham Carter ("Mighty Aphrodite," "A Room With A View") turn in powerful "performances of which movie legends are made" (Chicago Tribune) in this action-packed hit. A ticking-time-bomb insomniac (Norton) and a slippery soap salesman (Pitt) channel primal male aggression into a shocking new form of therapy. Their concept catches on, with underground "fight clubs" forming in every town, until a sensuous eccentric (Bonham Carter) gets in the way and ignites an out-of control spiral toward oblivion. Amazon.com essential video: All films take a certain suspension of disbelief. Fight Club takes perhaps more than others, but if you're willing to let yourself get caught up in the anarchy, this film, based on the novel by Chuck Palahniuk, is a modern-day morality play warning of the decay of society. Edward Norton is the unnamed protagonist, a man going through life on cruise control, feeling nothing. To fill his hours, he begins attending support groups and 12-step meetings. True, he isn't actually afflicted with the problems, but he finds solace in the groups. This is destroyed, however, when he meets Marla (Helena Bonham Carter), also faking her way through groups. Spiraling back into insomnia, Norton finds his life is changed once again, by a chance encounter with Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt), whose forthright style and no-nonsense way of taking what he wants appeal to our narrator. Tyler and the protagonist find a new way to feel release: they fight. They fight each other, and then as others are attracted to their ways, they fight the men who come to join their newly formed Fight Club. Marla begins a destructive affair with Tyler, and things fly out of control, as Fight Club grows into a nationwide fascist group that escapes the protagonist's control. Fight Club, directed by David Fincher (Seven), is not for the faint of heart; the violence is no holds barred. But the film is captivating and beautifully shot, with some thought-provoking ideas. Pitt and Norton are an unbeatable duo, and the film has some surprisingly humorous moments. The film leaves you with a sense of profound discomfort and a desire to see it again, if for no other reason than to just to take it all in. --Jenny Brown Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Fight Club Steelbook EditionThe movie edition is the special edition with all the special features - just enclosed in a thin metal casing. I was impressed that the metal casing is the exact same dimensions as a typical plastic dvd casing. It just seems more substantial and fitting for a movie of this calibre. I will definitely buy the Steelbook edition of Man on Fire, and I wish more movies were available in this casing. The movie itself is great, and the special features are very deep with several commentaries and loads ... Read More Rating: - The most intelligent movie ever made! Seriously.I RARELY watch the same movie twice... so of course I wouldn't go to the same movie twice in the theatre. I did for Fight Club. 2 times in the theatre, every time it's on TV and finally I bought the Collector's Edition DVD, which I've watched twice so far. The movie is an intelligent view of what we have become as consumers. The fighting is a symbol for the anger that we have to deal with and keep inside every day. If someone told you that this movie sucks because it's about a bunch of ...

Soon, the two are forming "fight clubs," where men beat each other senseless, and spearheading an anarchistic guerilla group. This film has a great first act and shows signs of becoming a first-rate indictment of our commercial culture (never mind ... Read More Rating:  - DisgustingBrad Pitt is disgusting. His wife is disgusting. This movie is disgusting. And if you like this movie, you're disgusting. Rating:  - One of my favoritesFight Club was one those films which fall into the category of "loved it or hated it " I stand with the former loved it The premise of the film is to fight back Psychological and physical violence both leave scars Both will heal over time, but the mental scars go deeper Fight Club gives people the chance to come face to face with the antagonist, be it a stranger or someone you have known all of your life Stranger's sometimes have more control over your life than you ...
