Fight Club
will rattle your cage and give you a new experience in motion
picture impact levels. There's a great deal to think about and
sort through.
I doubt that any two people will see this
picture the same and come up with the same answers.
This movie is much more than just beating
the stuffings out of each other. It could knock your socks off
just by the experience of watching. |
Make no mistake, Fight Club is a
gritty testosterone-driven thrill ride. The direction of this
film is no less than brilliant--it takes you through twists and
turns you have never been through before.
Despite the fact that it is filled with
talented actors, it suffers from the dreaded trick ending, making
it a roller coaster ride of extreme violence that jumps the track
despite itself. |
The first thing is: Fight Club is
not a date film. This psychological thriller has an obsession
with filth, and it has many extremes and disturbing factors,
like degradation, with the only up-front female in the movie
apparently being used to represent all of womanhood as a trash
receptacle for sex.
There is relentless brutal violence, gloomy
warped morality, and irritating politics.
I didn't like this bloody picture; I found
it unnatural and inhuman. |
