HOME | SCOOP!! & NEWS | BOLLYWOOD Fight Club - Review17th Feb 2006 20.45 IST By Nikhil Kumar Sohail Khan's latest production Fight Club is a stylishly shot movie with punchy action but no substantial story. The movie has a huge cast ensemble - Zayed Khan , Ritesh Deshmukh , Dino Morea , Sohail Khan , Sunil Shetty , Ashmit Patel , Rahul Dev , Ashish Chaudhary and three beauties Dia Mirza , Neha Dhupia and Amrita Arora . 
Although 'Fight Club' cannot be called a brazen replica of David Fincher's 1999 movie of the same title (starring Brad Pitt), it still borrows the basic plot from the Hollywood flick and then adds some desi masala - songs, romantic angles and a few twists. The movie, directed by Vikram Chopra, tells the tale of four friends - Vicky (Zayed Khan), Karan (Dino Morea), Somil (Ritesh Deshmukh) and Diku (Ashish Chaudhary). Fun, frivolity and fights are the primary indulgence of the four friends. The quartet decides to form a fight club that will provide people with the service of settling scores with enemies. Story takes a turn when the four friends go to Delhi for an assignment in a nightclub that has been at the receiving end of the ire of a few dangerous and notorious gangsters. Things become grave after the killing of the brother of Anna (Sunil Shetty), a powerful and influential man. Anna vows revenge. As the battle lines are drawn, the four friends call on their invincible buddy Sameer (Sohail Khan) for help. Equations change with the coming of Sameer. What follows is a series of serious fights embellished with action and stunts that scorn the laws of gravity. From a point of view, 'Fight Club' is full of clichés. The fun and hilarity is plain average at best, the fights are engaging but not enthralling and the mandatory dance numbers featuring Amrita Arora and Dia Mirza are nothing more than mere fillers. Zayed Khan looks very natural playing his part, while Ritesh Deshmukh is too much of a frolicker to fit the Fight Club. Dino Morea is uptight while Ashish Chaudhary leaves no impact at all. Sohail Khan is fine enough, but such roles are becoming a tad repetitive for him. Sunil Shetty, as usual, relies on his limited emotive range. Rahul Dev acquits himself well. To sum it up, 'Fight Club' is a visually slick but soulless movie.
