I read the book and had a completely different vision in my head. Watching these clips it looks kind of empty...the book made me feel really trapped and dirty...looks just too clean.

[GeDi709]

Choke was one of the greatest books I've ever read, I was kind of excited when I heard they were making a movie out of it, but im kind of scarred to. It seems liable to get fucked up. The clips aren't doing much for me either. The tone seems totally different than the book.

[SpeakandListen]

I thought the movie fight club was excellent and perfect to the book

20F here alone and bored and horny c

[MaXCKY]

Am I the only one here that thinks Choke the book is funny? I mean I understand how it's going to be a funny movie...

[youjustlostyourjob]

i love palahniuk, but this book sucked...kinda hard. this movie looks gay.

[SoggiFry]

i laughed throughout the book. i think it has a comedic undertone throughout most of the book. the point is victor is pathetic but doesn't even know it. he doesn't understand what's wrong with him. and he makes humor out of terrible situations. im not sold on this movie by any means...but im willing to give it a chance. we'll see

[bradical2001]

"Amazing" isn't the right word, but its the first that comes to mind

[bradical2001]

Was it me or was haunted and diary horrible?

[Eno Eyes]

fuck, its a comedy...fuck i was expecting a good movie

[Ashley Beckett]

Sofia Coppola should have directed this.

[Ashley Beckett]

I wasn't expecting a second fight club at all, but reading the book I felt such a powerful sick pathetic feeling, and none of the clips I have seen REMOTELY convey this. I think a novel should convey the tone of the book. This is definitely routing near a comedy more than anything. Clark even says he likes the feeling it has of a certain part of this world.. I strongly feel that 'part' isn't light hearted and sweet like he so humorously puts it.
