MY REVIEW
When I first read the previews of this film,it appeared to be a simple film with a predictable storyline of two disturbed guys starting a fight club where people take their frustration out by fighting.But a rating of 8.8 on IMDB made me watch it.

When the movie started i couldn't take my eyes of it till the credits rolled. Since then i have watched it many times and each time it feels even better.It is Edwart Norton plays the nameless protagonist who suffers from insomnia.He is frustrated with his job and his employer.He meets the 'soap maker' Tyler Durden(Brad Pitt)  and the mysterious Marla Singer(Helena Bonham Carter)and then starts The 'Mayhem' in the film.One of the most unanticipated and well written ending I have ever sen

After Amrican History X, this is probably Norton's best performance.Brad Pitt and Helena Bonham Carter support him really well.Fincher intended Fight Club's violence to serve at a metaphor for the conflict between a generation of young people and the value system of advertising and that he has done really well.

This movie is a must watch for all the people who love complicated movies. By far the best film i have ever seen


My rating 10/10
