Fight Club Has a social warning effect
2021-10-13 18:32
"Fight Club" is a sports film style movie. The exciting storyline and powerful social warning are comparable to the 90s movie "A Clockwork Orange". "Fight Club" is not only very impressive, but also aroused people's thinking. Unlike many horror films, it leaves a lot of questions for the audience to think about and argue. The thought-provoking, multi-layered stories shown in Fight Club provide people with enough material for discussion. ().
"Fight Club" is indeed a violent movie. Some plots are so cruel that some viewers will turn their heads and ignore it, such as a person pulling his loose tooth out of his mouth. Of course, all these bloody shots are meant to reveal the main point of the film: human beings are cruel by nature, and the daily suffering numbs people's hearts, triggers madness, and results in unpredictable consequences. The members of the fight club are victims of the loss of humanity and feeling in modern society. They have become cogs on wheels, and the only way for them to restore their individuality is to return to the most primitive and brutal instinct of pain and violence ().
