Is Fight Club worth watching when you've already got the twist spoiled?
Considering I rewatch it several times, I suppose so.
It's a gritty, visceral, nihilistic story, and I think it's told pretty well. Even though you know the ending, try to watch it with the mindset of not knowing what's happening, but even knowing the story, that shouldn't change things.
The beginning is pretty much a narration of consumerism gone wild. It has a very jaded point of view, and it's interesting to see how the story evolves from insomnia to domestic terrorism, though it does seem like a pretty outrageous jump.
And Brad Pitt and Ed Norton do great jobs. I'm not a Brad Pitt fanboy, but I do admire how he's so good-looking, but he's more than willing to take on ugly roles, such as Seven Years in Tibet, Snatch, 12 Monkeys, and of course Fight Club. This was also my first exposure to Helen Bonham Carter, before she became a Tim Burton regular. Her portrayal was good but also creepy because I once dated a girl like her. Not quite as bad but pretty close. That was exhausting (in the good and bad ways).
It makes me wonder about the character who got the fight clubs started. It's one thing when some stranger sees
two guys punching each other, and he says he wants to be next, but it's something entirely different when he sees one guy punching himself repeatedly and says he wants to be next. Who the fuck thinks that's a good idea to make eye contact with a whacko like that?
