FM4 - Single Film - Critical Study: Fight Club

Read renowned film critic Alexander Walker's review of 'Fight Club' in the Evening Standard here at the time of the films release. It is highly critical of the film stating that it: "promotes pain and suffering as the virtues of the strongest. It tramples every democratic decency underfoot. Like Hitler, its characters elevate the halbstarken, the "middle children of history", the underclass of outsiders who feel alienated and unvalued, and form them into disciplined cells, giving them a purpose in life which is to inflict panic and anarchy on the community."
What do you think?
