Sam Rockwell is one of the best actors in the business right now, and while this film isn’t for everyone, it sure is fun for the rest of us
Not as good as the book but what ever is. I was still very impressed with what they did here.
Entertaining and Rockwell gives a magnetic performance. The movies a bit of a mess and all over the place tonally, but it’s an easy watch
Lacks Fight Club's wonderful direction, but tackles similar Gen X masculinity themes
They left a lot of important stuff out of the adaptation. This is okay but if you've read the book, it's a disappointment
Rockwell is always awesome, and there's some pretty good dark comedy, but it feels directionless and disjointed.
It was OK. Hard to top fight club though in the adaptation department. Especially when it’s another chuck palinuik adaptation
Almost Fight Club. Need to read some of this Chuck Whateverthephiuk guys books now
Not perfect but I can’t see anyone other than Sam Rockwell as the main character after this. Always a solid performance.
Same writer as fight club, uh… not quite that good though
