Fight Club - 1999
IMDb : 8.8/10 ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
The movie I chose for my first cast about films today is *Fight Club*. This text will not contain any spoilers, so you won’t lose the enjoyment of watching the movie. The film I selected to introduce is a complex psychological and philosophical piece, one that critiques today’s consumer society. It shows how a society transforms into a consumerist one and what kinds of issues arise in society and individuals’ mental health as a result.
This work, which is adapted from Chuck Palahniuk’s book, presents a nightmarish world that David Fincher, the director of the film, has created. It portrays a tense and dense reality that is very much relevant to today’s societies and modern humans—people who get pummeled and are searching for liberation in the hidden depths of their own selves.
