      He was referred to as “Jack” in the screenplay, and throughout the film he refers to himself as Jack (ex. “I am Jack’s complete lack of surprise.”).

        I really wouldn’t characterise that as referring to himself as Jack. He’s referencing articles that use that format, not saying that his name is Jack.

      I’ve seen some regions give him a name which makes the film worse. I loved the reveal that at no point had we actually learned his name.

        Well a modern movie actually having a narrator kinda gives it away. Especially when they’re recounting the tale of some nobody.

            I’m saying that the format of a film generally doesn’t need a narrator. Typically what is told by a narrator is just actually seen on screen, shown in flashbacks or whatever. The framing story of Fight Club doesn’t need a narrator, nor are they defined as any third party in-universe like a detective making sense of it.

            So that the narrator remains in a movie where they aren’t apparently part of the plot already spoils us that there’s some reason we are not told for which we have a narrator. From there the simple mystery rapidly unravels.

              Lots of things have a narrator when one isn’t necessary, that’s not all that weird for a film and doesn’t tell the audience much.

              nor are they defined as any third party in-universe like a detective making sense of it.

              I don’t think that comparison works here. Most of the film is a flashback, described by the narrator. He doesn’t give his name as he tells us what led up to the prologue but that doesn’t seem all that odd, it doesn’t seem pertinent. Marla asks what his name is but the scene ends without us finding out - it’s relevant information to her but we have no particular reason to care whether his name is Dave Smith or Lance Elbowbottom III. It’s only later, with the reveal, that it becomes interesting. The credits might as well call him “also Tyler Durden” but “narrator” works well enough.

      Both movie and book are good. It is a great watch but not popcorn cinema. Put your phone away and listen closely. I should rewatch it too.

        I always do. I can’t stand people on their phone during a movie.

      I initially judged it by just the title and thought it was some action flick. It is not; it’s much better. Would indeed recommend, and please go in blind!
