I think I like this movie more every time I watch it...

That's all.

really? I found it an interesting idea the first time and each additional time less then that

Wayside · Apr 23, 2005

Which idea did you find interesting Crothian? I daresay the movie has more than one.

Um, guys - we're not supposed to be talking about this.

I love the movie Fight Club. I have lost count of how many times I have watched it.

I trust you have seen the flashes of Tyler in the early stages before is actually introduced as a character on the screen? This link has some info on where they are at if you have missed it:

If you liked the movie, read the book. It's even better (though the movie is incredibly faithful) and the ending is excellent.

I love the film and keep meaning to read the book.

Count me in with Crothian. The first time I saw it I thought it was a moderately enjoyable film to watch with some interesting ideas. On successive views though it lost the entertainment factor and the points the movie were trying to make seemed a lot more forced and less interesting, to me at least.

So, my final conclusion is that is a decent little movie with delusions of grandeur and shouldn't be the basis of your entire worldview. Yeah, that's extreme I know, but I know about twenty kids who seriously base their entire life on that movie.

I liked the book too, but actually thought the movie was better. It was really one of the best novel-to-film conversions I've seen since The Godfather, and you can tell much respect was paid to the source while still finding its own vision. I'd take the movie's ending over the book's anyday.
