    Spectacular Film with a Novel Twist, but Way Too Graphic and Disturbing for Under 16.

    This is a fantastic film; one of my favorites. The performances were astoundingly good. The story was amazingly thourough. And the twist... oh man! Mind-blowing! Up there with spectacular twists like the ones in The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, Identity, etc. I enormously reccommend this film to any movie fan!

    Super awesome!

    I watched this movie when I was 12 and loved it. A few parts it was gruesome, and a brief sex scene. However the deep story and twist ending along with the brilliant characters make this one of my top 5 films.

    Graphic Dark Comedy is Entertaining

    If you hate sex, violence, and language skip this one, if not enjoy yourself its pretty funny.

  7. I rate this title on for age 13 and give it 5.0

    this would be ok for 13 and up. the worst part is the social behavior (which is very antisocial) and violence and language. sexual content is moderate and drug content is mild. for violence there are 2 graphic scenes.

    Brilliance, if it floats your boat.

    The book was fantastic on its own, and the movie Fight Club simply wraps both up into a nice soapy and satirical package. If the acting, the philosophy, and the infamous ending plot twist aren't enough to get you snared into this story, then there's always the flashes of Tyler (the deranged political activist of this story) and his pornography, the very original music, and even Ikea tables to reign you back in. Needless to say, this flick isn't for kids, unless you know them well enough. I first saw it at thirteen, and, not being easily shocked, got a grasp of the philosophy quickly enough and was able to look past the flashes of porn and the swearing and drinking and smoking and even the twisted characters to understand what was behind it. So, if your kids are more intellectual and you don't mind them seeing things such as this and think they're mature enough to handle it, then go ahead. It all, of course, depends upon personal opinion, but this movie is rated R for a reason, is all I'm saying. It's a thoroughly enjoyable movie, and don't let the title deceive you: this fight club is more than the usual testosterone battle that you'd expect - it's a whole world of testicular cancer, beautiful and unique snowflakes, and, of course, soap.

    Amazing but graphic in every way

    Such a grea movie a twist and drama. WARNING THIS FILM IS NOT FOR KIDS I AM NOT JOKING. Sexual content not to bad we breifly glimpse a breast but is fuzzy so it's hard to catch. iolence brutal and graphic, males are repeatedley punched, tortured, and killed and all of them enjoy this "fight club". Langauge is explicit filled with inneundos, f words, and others. Ending I won't spoil but amazing plot a must see but the ending you can't tell if it's good or bad so 15 and under won't undersand and will most likely think bad wins so very very bad message.

    I liked it.

    I saw this when I was 14, and honestly I think it's one of the best movies out there. Only thing that bothered me when I first saw it was the unconventional sex.

    Amazing movie, but difficult to understand at a young age.

    I watched it first when I was 11, and loved the plot twist, and I watched it again when I was 13 and understood it much better. Performed the chemical burn scene with my best friend for my 8th grade graduation speech. The violence is symbolic for something much deeper than just being a "man" and as a girl, i enjoyed it more than most of my male friends. amazing movie. the sex isn't anything that 12 year olds haven't seen before (the internet, their friends even), and i'm kind of desensitized to violence in general. great movie... just, great movie.

    Dang...

    Fight Club is the ultimate guy movie. but um, helo did enyone else notice the graphic sex scene(even though it's very short). this movie is so awsome, I loved it, the end makes you feel good. a deffinet rent for a guy night, but women probubly wouldn't find it entertaning insted just gross. if your kid knows how these things work(sex) and knows not to repete the many bad words you WILL hear I'd say it's ok. this movie is so funny I LOVE it . deffinetly watch it!

    A master piece

    This film is most likely the best of the year that it came out in, but in competition with American beauty but still this is one of my favorite films. Now you have to know your kids well to let them see this it is defiantly for very mature 13/15 year olds.

    Highly Entertaining Film!

    I love this movie, I love the book too! It's an extremely well done movie with great acting, the writing was great and so was the directing and execution. If you can't handle language (I can) then this movie isn't suggested, the f-word count comes up to about almost 80. Anybody who complains about the violence is overreactive. This film doe's contain all sorts of reckless behavior so if your kids go and do things they see in the movies then don't let them watch this. A+ movies by a great director (DAVID FINCHER) and I haven't enjoyed in ending so much since I don't know what. Highly reccomended!!

    Greatest movie EVER!

    David Fincher really di a great job directing this film. My favorite actor is Edward Norton He is so awsome. The violence is not that big of deal though.

    Anarchistic, Demented Satire from the Director of 'Se7en'

    I said yes, it would be okay for kids my age to see it. However, that applies only, to kids who are familiar with the concepts of satire, alienation, sexual intercourse, steroids and the negative effects of them, violence to blow off steam, and anger towards the government for whatever reason. With that it mind, this is one of the best movies I have seen in a long, long, time. David Fincher, the director, has scored a major hit with this. See it, but make sure you fully understand the above concepts and don't have a tendency to say Ewwwww! when someone gets punched or hit or stabbed or anything.
