The narrative around Fincher is that he's a meticulous control freak who will often require 50 takes per scene, so I'd imagine that it's likely whatever you're picking up on was intended to be that way, for whatever that's worth.

I do agree that there've been a few scenes where the dialog didn't fly for me (most of the times they delve into the tangential intellectual/philosophical discussions of the girlfriend/academics feels forced & clunky), but I dunno if that's the result of the actors or just the dialog itself.
