Poll question: Fight Club: mostly liked or mostly disliked?
I just watched this with my girlfriend and wonder if opinions of this movie divide on gender lines.

1. I can only vote once but you can count me for 2 votes because
it's one of my daughter's favorite movies (to the point that "I'm Jack's smirking revenge" is her AIM icon).

2. With a qualifier, my wife likes it.
She has a visceral reaction to some of the fight scenes, but she likes the movie overall. Especially Norton's performance.

9. watching it again, I realized my friends and I used to do the fight scenes in my basement when I was
about eight or nine.

Without the face punches or pounding heads on the floor.

4. I don't like the fight scenes, or the "soap-making"
but I do so enjoy the whole idea of the credit reporting bureaus being gone. At this point, our human worth has degraded to a number found in a file. *sigh*

14. Unfortunately, I do enjoy it
You're not supposed to like the movie if you like the movie. The same way you're not supposed to talk about fight club.
