Fight club review
My Rating: 8.4/10
IMDb Rating: 8.9/10 Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 80% Metacritics Rating: 66/10 My Favorite Quotes 1. "Man, I see in fight club the strongest and smartest men who've ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off." - Tyler Durden 2. "It's only after we've lost everything that we're free to do anything." - Tyler Durden 3. "The things you own end up owning you." - Tyler Durden I have just finished watching Fight Club and I truly do not know what to really think of it. I think will come back at a later date and finish this review. But for know I will touch on some of the things I did and did not like. As far as the acting goes I really liked that aspect of the film. Especially Brad Pitt and Edward Norton they were absolutely fantastic. As for the rest of the crew I did not care much for especially Bob. I do have to admit I found Edward Nortons description of his titties to be absolutely hysterical. I like the whole fight the power and rise against things in the world we do not need, but want, so basically material things. It really staged a good theme that the film continued to follow throughout. Also the plot twist of Edward Norton being Brad Pitt as well was quite alarming. If I had not already had it spoiled by some of my friends and the Internet. The plot was very good and apart from the ending scene turning into a fucking Fast and Furious film I really enjoyed it. I'm also a bit skeptical on the whole building being blown up shit CGI scene at the end. All in all a great piece of cinematography. |
