A film that affected you in such a deep way couldn’t possibly be garbage.

To me, Fight Club is about going through a period of growth that is necessary to live in the modern world. First of all you realise how much bullshit the modern world contains. And then after a few years you learn how to live a wholesome life amongst the bullshit.

It’s a necessary growth phase that intelligent people (especially men) must go through. And hopefully come out the other side a better person, just like the main character of the movie.
