Review of Fight Club

Fight Club (1999)
9/10
Inventive and wild
23 October 1999
I've seldom felt so blown-away after leaving a theatre... not coincidentally, another recent film that left me feeling this way also starred Edward Norton. Fight Club may be controversial, but that's probably because many people don't like looking too deep below the surface. As satire, as pure entertainment, as social commentary, Fight Club excels. It's not a smooth ride, and there may be some suspension of disbelief required to take it all in, but isn't that one of the things that fiction is all about? I hope this won't be ignored at Oscar time.
