I watched this film many years ago but found most of it quite tedious and boring, but since those years passed and my mind slightly matured, I decided to give it another chance and decide whether or not my perspective on it differed. Indeed, it was one of the confusing, mind-fuck movies I've ever seen, but that mind-fuck only came in once it was revealed the narrator was actually, Tyler Durdern. It was so confusing that, in the end I stared at a wall for close to 5 minutes coming to terms with the whole plot in itself and it's ending. What I also notice again is that there was also no dull moment in this movie and the dialogue was amazing. Never once did I feel the urge to go on my phone or read a book which most films I see, fall victim to (which forces me to re-watch it again). The actors were also amazing, my favourite was Brad Pitt's portrayal of Tyler (which is unusual for me because, when I watch a movie with him in it, his performance is not my most favourite overall).
In conclusion, Fight Club is a great movie and definitely one to check if you've seen Requiem For a Dream or American Psycho (among other cult classics), and understood its message. My opinion on this film did change after all, and I do think highly of almost everything about it. Fight Club is a film I'll put on during movie night with my friends and will watch all of it, beginning to end, with no interruptions.
