Fight Club (1999)

This movie is about a man who works at traveling automobile company who suffers from insomnia. He goes to a doctor about his problem, but he refuses to give him the medication to help him sleep and advises him to start visiting cancer support groups.
He starts by coming to a testicular cancer group and pretended that he had cancer too and the emotinal relief of that group like crying helps him with his insomnia problem. Soon enough he becomes addicted to the support groups and starts going to alot of support groups everyday. Once he spotted another fake person, Marla, in those support groups he realises that he can't cry anymore on the group and because of that he can't sleep anymore.
In a flight of a business trip, the man knows a guy name Tyler Durden, who is a soap salesman. When he was coming back he noticed that his apartment was destroyed by a fire. He calls his new friend Tyler and they meet at a bar. Here's when the real story starts, maybe one of the my favourite parts in this movie. They talk about consumerism and drink. After than Tyler invites the man to stay at his place. When they are leaving the bar they start fighting. After that they would do the same fights at the outside of the bar and that attract men. Some time after that they'll creat a Fight Club in that same bar basement.
Some day Marla calls the man and asks for help because she is overdosing, but the man ignores her. Tyler will be the one that will save her and become her sex partner, if I can say that.
Tyler starts travelling and creating more Fight Clubs around the country. With that he will create "Project Mayhem" that has the goal to "clean" the world of the new society.
At the end of the movie he discovers that him and Tyler are the same person and he suffers from dissociated personalities, they fight in a building where he tried to take the bombs that the   "Project Mayhem" installed in some of the biggest buildings in the city.
The ending of this movie is one of the best and epic I've ever seen, Marla and him are holding hands from the top of a building and watching the city the top building of the city to get destroyed.


This time I chose to put the ending of the movie instead of the trailer because I think this is so epic that I can't even describe.
