The second rule of Fight Club is: You DO NOT talk about Fight Club!

David Fincher's magnetic neo-noir drama FIGHT CLUB (based on the 1996 novel of the same name by Chuck Palahniuk) broke rules (and maybe a few faces) when it was released in 1991, and has since grown into a much-loved and oft-quoted pop culture classic. Ed Norton plays the unnamed protagonist, an "everyman" who is so discontented with his run-of-the-mill white-collar job and bland, IKEA-heavy existence that his malaise and unchecked male angst leads to his forming an illicit, underground "fight club" with oddball soap maker Tyler Durden (a smoldering Brad Pitt). The "club" appeals to other equally malcontent men (including Meat Loaf and Jared Leto) looking to the highs from recreational fights to get off and feel alive. Things get more complicated when "the narrator" becomes embroiled in a complicated relationship with an equally dissolute woman, played by Helena Bonham Carter.

"FIGHT CLUB pulls you in, challenges your prejudices, rocks your world and leaves you laughing in the face of an abyss. It's alive, all right. It's also an uncompromising American classic". (Rolling Stone)

"FIGHT CLUB is one movie that exactly caught the pre-millennial tension. Great performances, stunning visuals and a plot like nothing you've ever seen - one of the films of the year." (Empire Magazine)
