These are two of the preachiest and most obtuse movies I've ever seen. I suppose I'll give my vote to American History X because it's slightly less unoriginal.

Edward Norton is awesome.

Both are great films, but I think American History X short-changes us a little bit on Norton's transformation in prison. Fight Club has no one thing that bothers me like that, so it gets the nod here.

The two best Edward Norton Movies, Fight Club wins easily although AMX is awesome.

This is insane. AHX doesn't measure up to Fight Club. There aren't many movies that can.

American History X. Norton is far greater in it.

American History X smashes Fight Club. Norton is off the charts in this one....

Fight Club is a clever film with a fantastic twist and performances by the two leads but AHX is one of my favorite films of all time and Edward Norton's transformation physically in preparation for the film and emotional during the film puts it ahead of FC in my eyes.

Norton's performance in X is better, but Fight Club is too legendary.

What a freakin' curve ball. When it comes to Edward Norton,i think this is not even a contest: "American History X" easily gets it. I may change it later 'cause it's too damn close,but for now i will stick with it.

American History X is the more quality film. And I personally enjoyed it more as well.

Very different movies but both similar at the same time. Both have a stab at society but Fight Club plays with your mind and American History X plays with your heart. Both have good structures mixed with stunning cinematography and acting. Fight Club is the winner here because some parts of American History X feel a bit rushed.
