Trailer  | Overview
This action packed adaptation of Chuck Palahniuk's novel of the same name follows the life of an insomniatic office worker whose apartment explodes, leading him to befriend a generous but eccentric soap maker who offers a room in his run-down house. The two quickly become friends as they discover they both have a passion for fighting, an interest they expand in to hundreds on underground "fight clubs" across the country. But it's not long before the clubs' activities expand from friendly underground scuffles to low-level corporate terrorism. When the group plans a large-scale operation, the once mild-mannered narrator must decide if the situation is out of control. With action and suspense building towards an epic finale, the surprises continue until the final frames. |
