इस फ़िल्म के बारे में जानकारी

Sick of his dead end, white bread, corporate career and disgusted with the empty consumer culture of his generation, a confused young man serendipitously meets Tyler Durden. Together they create a new club where young men come to relieve their frustrations by beating each other to a pulp. Two rules govern the club: no more than two men per fight and no one is to mention fight club to any outsiders. Reverse-psychology proves it's power, as the latter rule instantaneously spreads the news of fight club throughout the underworld sub-culture. Tyler Durden, the ringleader, quickly becomes a cult hero of epic proportions, a new messiah for a dead generation. Meanwhile, Jack manages to get involved in a twisted love triangle with Tyler and a girl named Marla, who is also at odds with reality.

रेटिंग और समीक्षाएं

You can't underestimate what a hugely influential and revolutionary film Fight Club was on release. It's bleakly comic tone may have been lifted by everything from Mr Robot to Dexter, but it's the cinematography and knot of seeming coincidences here that move this into thriller / horror territory. It loses it's way in the final third, only for a thrillingly emotional / heartwarming / downbeat ending

One of my favourite films, dark humour and macho posturing - what's-not-to-like? And for those complaining about the price... I waited it out until the HD version was £4.99. (It has apparently been as low as £1.99 in HD so keep an eye out for a bargain)

How I haven't seen this film before now astonishes me. It's a true masterpiece and I'd recommend this to anyone with a liking toward niche, independent films. Even though this isn't either of those, it plays out like one because it's quite unique. I drew my interest in this film after watching The Painted Veil, which Edward Norton starred in.
