Fight Club

Havn't seen the film OJ.
sorry

Yossarian

I would consider it a very black comedy.
A truly excellant film.

Q_Ball

Yes, tis a magnificant film. you can actually appreciate how much thought and effort went into it. The way it was shot with the nearly-subliminal shots of brad pitt, the scientifically-correct opening when the camera pans the brain. The quality of the acting and dialogue.

Excellent

It's a 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

HIT IT!

Magwitch

Excellent, highly origional, clever and very dark. NOt at all what I expected. I had planned to avoid it as a hype movie about violence but had to bring my wife to see Brad Pitt. But I must also admit that I have a thing for Helena B Carter (WOOF WOOF!).

Excelsior

The best kind of movie- one that defies or confuses typical categories.

Edited overall to remove everything because OJ removed the offending sentence from his.

yossarin

the books great as well

JustHalf

What's the name of the book (I'm fairly sure it's a different title), and who wrote it?

It was really odd watching the film and associating with the Ed Norton character, then the ending... yikes.

And God said to Adam: 'I am root, FOO.'

It rained in San Francisco Wednesday evening, but the penguins were
still there Thursday morning, smiling broadly.

I loved it, amazing film, but I wouldn't put it in any particular genre.

Excelsior

oh Dave, you crazy nerd.
The book is called Fight Club, and was written by a nice Oregonian named Chuck Palanhiuk

If you've seen this movie, reading the book is nigh on pointless.

Black comedy. The blackest, and the best....

Damn it Jim, im a doctor, not a Beefy King !

What do you people thihnk of seeing the film,
would you class it as a funny and action or what ?
I thought some scene's were well done, like in the fight's were the fella's teeth are falling out and when they go around causing vandlism, its bit of a mix between a comedy and action/triller I think, because some parts were quite funny, would anyone else have any other opnion's than me about what type of film it is?
if so posts why you would think it is below

Cake Fiend

Well it's fairly obvious well before the "changeover" tbh...

Lenny

LOL, the fella Bob was funny looking with his tits

How wrong can you be? Quite apart from the different ending there's numerous other images and such to make the book worth reading.

ObeyGiant

Given Palahniuk's writing style, you gain very little extra from reading the book. The strong narrative of the film means that 95% of the book is directly quoted in the film.. the remaining 5% of the book is not worth the effort - there are a lot more books out there worthy of your time.

I think all the ingrediants to the bombs and stuff is included in the book

Shouldn't that be banned under US export laws?

Edited because of "that darn enter key"

One of my all-time faves that movie... a must-see IMO.

JustHalf

joey joe joe junior shabadu...thats the worst name i ever heard

sixpack's little hat

Its definitely a must-see film however i have to agree about the book. i think i would have enjoyed it a lot more if i'd read it before deeing the film.
anyone ever tested whether equal parts frozen orange juice and gasoline = napalm?

could have some fun with napalm
