...performance as the liberated and outspoken Tyler Durden. Whilst Norton is also excellent as the film's narrator and lead, who loses everything on his way to hitting bottom.

Visually stunning, the film isn't actually as violent as the title or the subject matter suggests, and it is worth while remembering that the whole movie is to be taken with a large slab of salt. The DVD release is a 2 disc package, feature four commentaries all of which are very entertaining and informative, and loads of behind the scenes footage (the majority of which features multiple audio tracks and multi-angle facilities). A comprehensive package for an outstanding film. I'd say more, but the first rule of Fight Club is that you do not talk about Fight Club... :)... Read review
