I hate it.

Cinematically there's little to fault - but I hate its message with a passion. It's so pointlessly nihilist at face value, and then the makers tried to back-pedal and say it's just a comment on the emasculation of the media, how mainstream consumerism is, and it's all just such a tired and pretentious little cliché that bores the living crap out of me + is really a weak subject material for a film.

Boo ****ing hoo, IKEA are big. Oh nooooo you don't have a father figure. Grow the **** up and stop complaining.

It's also ludicrously overrated - I don't think it's even Fincher's greatest film [Se7en is far superior, intellectually and in terms of story; Zodiac was also brilliant, let alone Benjamin Button], let alone the 14th best film ever [according to IMDb].

The only redeeming feature of the film were that Helena Bonham Carter had an interesting character for a change, and Brad Pitt was SMOKING hot. And there's something kinda hot about Norton too.
