A ticking-time-bomb insomniac and a slippery soap salesman channel primal male aggression into a shocking new form of therapy. Their concept catches on, with underground "fight clubs" forming in every town, until an eccentric gets in the way and ignites an out-of-control spiral toward oblivion.
An enjoyable cast and a couple of charming relationships are enough to make this a surprise.
A glorious spiritual adaptation of the idea at the centre of the text.
Very funny and smart, its shot like a comedy and suffers like most comedies do because of it.
