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.
the movie is okay cool fighting some parts and alot of funny parts truth is 16 and over because it has some scenes of nudity and bloody violence worth watching not worth buying
A movie most loved by (mature) teens and young adults.
This is a movie that younger people can enjoy, but only if they understand that it is satirical. If your kid is the dumb, monkey-see, monkey-do type, then they are the targets of this film, and probably wouldn't enjoy it anyway.
First off, this is an excellent film and I think everyone should see it at some stage.
That said, it is very violent and has a lot of sex in it. It's probably not going to do any harm to anyone who's about 15 but the messages it pushes can easily be misinterpreted. It's not difficult to imagine that some teenagers or even adults will think of it as glorification of violence and rebellion.
Once in a while you come across a film that can change the way you see your own place in life. Fight Club is that kind of movie. Ed Norton portrays a “nameless” character that almost every person watching can relate to. Brad Pitt makes the most of his character to its maximum potential with the guy that every male watching wishes he could be. The supporting cast is incredible, the film’s dark humor and grainy atmosphere sets the viewer in their world which strong resembles the one we live in. Every line that Brad Pitt’s character “Tyler Durden” voices makes worthy of an instant quote for years to come. Words cannot explain the power the movie hold and only all of your senses can take in this terrific masterpiece.
Showed this to my younger brother at 15 because I trusted he wouldn't repeat the language or violence depicted. Fantastic film and fantastic novel. Highly recommend although I think it would be a bit awkward watching with a parent!
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.
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!
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.
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.
