Fight Club (1999)

Recommended cult classic from XX century. If you don't get distracted by the David Fincher's masterful direction and Brad Pitt's alpha image, you can comprehend it's not about alpha male rebellion, it's the dream of incels, socially disconnected men unable to form normal relationships. Narrator: Wagekuck obsessed with IKEA catalogs (special interest in consumer minimalism), crashes support groups for fake emotional connection, has neither a partner nor friends. Tyler: Chad effortless charisma, sexual dominance, zero social anxiety. Pure fantasy cope.…

56/100 A man, with a rather skewed view of the world, teams up with another guy, who has an opposite but equally skewed view of the world, after his condo is destroyed by an explosion. What develops is ...interesting. Despite the fact that the film is waaaayyy toooo long, Edward Norton and Brad Pitt are exceptional, the writing was top notch (I really like the constant philosophical and humorous banter being tossed around), and the film has a rather profound twist I didn't see coming. Not bad. - DrNostromo.com
