It's already over two hours long, you want it to be over three hours? Movies are too long as they are.

The beginning was rather intriguing but it goes down hill with its juvenile rebellion.

Overall I was impressed with Fight Club - it wasa very well written movie and raised alot of interesting points.

As good as it was though I still think the ending could have been better.For starters the plot twist was fairly predictable/ cliche andI don't think it fully capitalized on the momentum it had built up.Suddenly making Tyler Durden to be the bad guy was a poor decision I think - especially after all the progress he had made up until that point. As it was the ending just felt sort of senseless - like it was lacking in some way.

Still it was an ok ending - I can live with the fact that FC wasn't perfect.

I think that Fight Club is largely divisive because it is so widely misinterpreted.

Sort of like how when Beavis and Butthead gets criticized for the dumbing down of teens, when that's the exact same ****ing thing that the show is trying to comment on.

In any case, I love Fight Club.

MrGeezer

Bingo!

Geezer couldn't be any more right!

Oh wait--

Again, let me reference Beavis and Butthead.

A LOT of total ****ing idiots thought that Beavis and Butthead were cool guys, which is SOLELY because those are the exact same kinds of people who were too stupid to realize that the show was mocking people like them.

Fight Club consisted of a bunch of ****ing losers, and the people who think that the fighting was "cool" completely missed the point.

MrGeezer

I don't see it as an attack on consumerism at all. Tyler Durden was the one spouting that anti-consumerism crap, and Tyler Durden is revealed to be a villain who is full of ****. Tyler Durden addresses his followers as snotty little crybaby man-children, and that's EXACTLY what they are. If anything, I think that the movie is a comment on blindly following of bull**** ideologies.

MrGeezer

Hm, I stand corrected. NOW, he couldn't be any more right.

I have it on DVD. I think it's a great film. Haven't watched it in a while to be honest though.

His name was Robert Paulson. Also, it's pretty clear that the "Fight Club" was incorrect when the ****ing protagonist reviles it and blows away its leader.

Perhaps it's because I read the book first, but I thought the movie was awesome. You do get a bit more insight on some things, but I thought the movie fleshed out everything necessary to tell the story. The ending is different, though. I like the ending of the movie better. I do not agree that making the movie longer would have made it better. At all.

I enjoy it regardless of whether I want to think or just turn my brain off. I like the editing and camera work in that movie a lot.

I found it fairly Ho Hum. Decent, just nothing to write home about. I enjoyed it most because of Norton who i have a longstanding man crush on.

They're a bit too old to be called juvenile.

I didn't get it.

Memento was released around the same time, and was WAY better.

Haven't watched Fight Club, but have watched Memento. That's a damn good movie!

I didn't care for it, but like some cult movies like A Clockwork Orange a lot of its crazy fans misinterpret what it's saying.

I dug it. I am not a huge Norton or Pitt fan, but I felt they both did a good job in that movie. Overall, I felt the premise was relatively unique and that's what kept my interest in it.

I find that a bit insulting that because you didn't like it suddenly it has crazy fans who don't know what they're talking about. C'mon.

I thought/think Fight Club is one of the better movies I have ever seen, and I've seen a lot of movies.

I enjoyed it. It's not as "deep" as people say it is, but it is really entertaining.

Are you kidding me???? Its ones of my favorite movies. David Fincher is a genius.

But I guess everyone has different tastes in movies . . .

That's not what I said, I find that the cult fan aspect of this and many films seem to love the film for all the wrong reasons. I was not saying it's like that with all fans of the film...

Movie was better than the book, but the book has the better ending. The ending of the movie is inconsistent with the rest of the point of the story. In all, Edward Norton = awesome, even if Fight Club isn't.
