( fr ) Fight Club is a 1999 American feature film adaptation of the 1996 novel by Chuck Palahniuk. The film was directed by David Fincher and follows a nameless protagonist (Edward Norton), an everyman and an unreliable narrator who feels trapped with his white-collar position in society. The narrator gets involved in a fight club with soap salesman Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt) and becomes tangled up in a relationship triangle with Durden and a destitute woman, Marla Singer (Helena Bonham Carter).

Tessa01 Hall of fame  fight club is one of my favorites well done David Fincher.

politicus Dislike  Je n'ai pas du tout aimé ce film. Malgré le très bon jeu des acteurs je trouve que la symbolique de la violence comme exutoire du quotidien ne fonctionne pas du tout. ça bastonne pendant deux heures quinze sans plus !

smiddchile This movie can be enjoyed by all but it can be best appreciated after reading 'Thus spoke Zarathustra', by Nitzsche.

M.I.A. Officially More Influential Than Prince, Lil Wayne, or Kanye West
Congratulations to M.I.A. for making Time's list of the 100 most influential people in 2009, two years after her last record, and three months after being nominated for her first Grammy. Spike Jonze, in his adulatory but perceptive (She reacts to whatever's in front of her: 'Those are booming Indian drums,' 'That is a dope producer,' 'Those kids are making sick beats.') essay on the artist, calls her a child of Chuck D and the Pixies and Fight Club and MySpace. Add Sri Lanka (the current plight of which M.I.A. does not fail to mention in the accompanying hagiographic video) and Jean-Michel Basquiat and that list is just about right. A good day for the right person. [Read more]

Fight Club's Fincher to direct Facebook film?
Cera is, according to the source, the top choice because audiences find him particularly likable. Rumours about the plot of The Accidental Billionaires hint that Zuckerberg is going to be portrayed rather unfavourably -- basically, as an obnoxious nerd -- and obnoxious nerds are not the world's biggest box-office selling point. Cera could possibly make the part more sympathetic. In LaBeouf's favour, he really does sound like Zuckerberg. [Read more]

Something More Terrible than Fight Club: The Girlfriend Experience
This is not a time for fight club, is it? The cynicism of the '90s appeared to have reached some sort of apex of anomie near the end of the decade. We could no longer choke down our own image as bored consumers, pathetic workers, and depressed youth. The course of action became disturbingly clear: one could either kill everyone in their vicinity, or learn how to fight with others. With some dumb luck, the anti-globalization movement made an appearance and gave so many bullied children, computer [Read more]

Single Person's Movie: Fight Club
Effusive praise aside, we are objective enough to understand Fight Club does have flaws and limitations; both of director David Fincher?s two most recent films, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and Zodiac, are more complete thoughts from a cinematic standpoint. But Mr. Fincher has never again come close to capturing the spirit and energy of Fight Club. He attacks the adaptation of Chuck Palahniuk?s novel, written for the screen by Jim Uhls (whose only other legitimate credit is for Jumper; go [Read more]
