Fight Club

Everyone seems to want to be Tyler Durden these days. I mainly heard this name all over the manosphere and self-improvement internet niche. People mention a lot about it and quoting, “ the first rule of fight club is you do not talk about fight club”. If my memory serves me well, I watched this a very long time ago but for no reason, I want to watch it again. Since I don’t recall a lot of its plot and the characters, I once thought that Tyler Durden is the main character as the internet makes it seem like he was the main character. Meanwhile, actually he’s just the deuteragonist. I personally like Edward Norton's performance in this film more than Brad Pitt who plays Tyler Durden. Could it be just because it’s Brad Pitt that this movie garners cult-like following and is pretty famous?

However, Fight club isn’t a movie that I have strong opinions on. It was one of those movies that I watch just because, as an entertainment, and it stops there. Perhaps I failed to get the deep message of the movie or the movie just completely failed to catch my attention. And I am sure that others could have praised the cinematography, screenwriting etc but other than the screenwriting that I deem really good, it was all that from this movie to me. If you have not watched the movie, I suggest that at least once you watch this and you might like either it’s cinematography or screenwriting or the actors.
