Director - David Fincher
Genre - Crime/Drama/Thriller
Based on cult author Chuck Palahniuk's novel, this is a movie that will throw you violently out of your comfort zone and into a grungy, unhinged world. 'Matrix' was science fiction. This, horrifyingly, could actually happen in real life. Edward Norton and Brat Pitt both turned in edgy performances but it's Fincher who is the true star here, directing from a script that many directors might not even have the balls to attempt. Ballsy and rife with cynicism courtesy of Palahniuk's angst-ridden mind, this is a film which put Palahniuk's name on everyone's lips while firmly securing Fincher's place in the arena of cinema. Warning: may turn mild-mannered chaps into full blown terrorists or to a lesser extent, terribly fond of picking fights with close friends and people at work (the latter may only refer to us).
4 STARS!

You're liable to 'Choke' if you're not a fine director like Fincher. That other film seems to have disappeared into oblivion. We haven't caught that one. Did you?
One meets tyler and his life will never be the same again. A movie that changed many peoples perspective about consumerism, philosophy and life priorities.
But sir, the first rule is you are not supposed to talk about it.
But I have never got around to seeing Fight Club for some reason. Maybe some day :)
Vivek - Watch it today. Some movies you have to watch and some you don't. The 'Game', truthfully speaking, we wouldn't have felt bad if we've never watched it thinking back. This one has Brad Pitt and Ed Norton acting the devil's thorns out of a Chuck Palahniuk novel! What's holding you back?! You'll thank us later. Believe in the hype this time.
I agree with your statements about the ballsiness and edginess of it.
