Fight Club and it's not close.


See how easy that is to do?

The anti-racism propaganda they shove down your throat, the dreadful music, it's terribly shot, it's a typical spoon-fed and patronizing script that hollywood would love, and worst of all, the dialogue. The dialogue is sooooo bad

Norton's performance is really the only redeeming quality about the film

The director even said it sucked

I'm shocked and saddened that AHX has more votes than Fight Club at this point. I consider Fight Club one of the best movies ever made.

I absolutely love Fight Club, but I'm shocked and saddened that anyone would consider it one of the best movies ever made.

That's a tough one. I'd have to say AMX as a better norton performance, but FC as a better movie.

I think his best performance was in Primal Fear.

Love American History X, but gotta go with Fight Club.

American History X is a story and a great one at that.

Fight Club is an Idea. A philosophy.
Lessons learned within, deeper truths, the real message...
Man, it's more than a film. It's an awakening.

I think Norton's performance in American History X was better, but Fight Club is the better movie.

I think both are great movies and I couldn't argue with someone if they picked either one.

Fight Club. AHX is just too much for me to handle on a Sunday morning. I can watch Fight Club anytime.

Fight Club by far.

What was the symbolism in blowing all the corporate buildings up?

Fight Club for rewatchability. American History X for impact.

Why do you think American History X is terrible? I like to hear some reasoning. I thought it was universally well liked.

ETA: Question already answered.
