Fight Club


The movie "fight club".. is a very controversial movie... i hate it as much as i like it.. for those who haven't watched it i won't burn it i promise.

it is talking about the other side of people.. what we keep inside and hide from everyone else.. the deep human feelings and desires in its meanest and dirtiest way...
all the time the movie keeps u disgusted, hating every character in it, but yet having a slight understanding to why the characters are doing this,, and knowing that anyone can just be like them if he looses what he/she holds on to..

the hero is a very decent guy who works for a well known areoplanes company... he's a bit lonely but he keeps himself busy and just keeps on going... untill he meets the weirdest friend ever (who's Brad Pitt)
his life changes 180 degrees... and he starts to do & say all what he has never thought of doing or saying... and he thinks he is now free of modern life's ties.. (this was thru free fights)

There is a famous line that Brad says and is always put on the commercial: "First rule of fight club is not to talk about fight club. Second rule of fight club is not to talk about fight club!" he says it twice... which i think is pointing to the fact that we keep our "bad" feelings and deeds for ourselves and never talk to others about it, we want everyone to think we r Perfect... no envy or hatred, no low self esteem or anger.... we want to keep it a perfect picture..

the story goes afterwards aginst the expectations of any viewer (u might be saying: da elli 2olty mesh 7ate7ra2eeh:) ) yes i know what i am saying... the rest of the story which i didn't tell is much more exciting...

So this movie keeps u very interested till the last scene... and also disgusted as i said... maybe because u can never imagin that a person can hold such a mess inside... all the characters are psychos for sure :)

just a remarkable movie... it's not nice.. not sweet or ends happily, but it might teach u something... or might not... ;)

Exactly Billy that's what i meant.. each one of us has similar feelings and tendencies... we must control our energy & our desires or else it will destroy us.
Sports is one way of course... but not killer sports;) Another way is to try to change the things we don't like around us. If we fail to change the surroundings then start thinking abt changing ourselves. If not both then quit the thing completely, whether it is work, group of people, a relation or whatever! but do not start a destructive habit...
