Twenty-five years ago this week, Fight Club made its way into theaters before finishing its brief run with only $37 million domestically and $100.9 million worldwide.
Fans and critics didn’t initially know what to make of it, and the numbers it put up were anything but blockbuster-worthy. Regardless, Fight Club eventually exploded in popularity on home video and cable, leading to a massive resurgence that transformed it into a cult film. It’s easily one of director David Fincher ’s best movies, and it significantly increased the profile of Chuck Palahniuk, the author of the original novel.
Related Brad Pitt has one of his most charismatic performances Between the end of his heartthrob stage and his growth as a character actor, Brad Pitt took on the role of Tyler Durden. He’s got the flashiest part of the film, and most of the story revolves around Tyler. Through Pitt’s performance, Tyler is charming, charismatic, and passionate. It’s easy to see why the narrator befriended Tyler, and why so many of the men in Fight Club seemingly worship the ground he walks on.
Norton may not have gotten the same kind of acclaim that Pitt had for his role, but he’s equally important to Fight Club‘s success. He’s very believable as the film’s underdog character, who has a dark side of his own. The twists are unforgettable As Tyler says in the film, the first two rules of Fight Club are “don’t talk about Fight Club.” Similarly, it’s a bad idea to spill the details about the movie’s biggest twist. It’s enough to say that the clues are there ahead of time, but most of the first-time viewers may be surprised to learn that everything isn’t as it seems.
