good film ....good film

I must watch this one again sometime. The sound track, If I remember correctly is pretty good aswell, it adds to the erieness of the film.

Yup, excellent movie! After viewing it a couple of times, I have to admit that I still don't understand it completely, but it's a great movie nonetheless.

I've been meaning to watch this again, but haven't gotten around to it yet. I'll have to do that one night this week :D. Thanks for the reminder, LOL.

And I agree with ShankS about the soundtrack. The music was perfect for this film!

I wanted tol beat the fucking gym teacher with a bat...

And i like Patrick Swayze, but his character sucked. He PLAYED him well, very well. Fucking pervert.


In summation, i really like it.

Re: Re: Donnie Darko

This movie is ok but is way overrated by many....its seems like its "cool" to give this movie good ratings....

"SPOILER"
I dont like to be framed...its starts out like a horror flick and ends up like a quasi mystery.....and i dont like the gay music ...:)

No offense, but Donnie Darko is not a cinematic masterpiece. Anyone who thinks so is either 11 years old, or hasn't seen any of the dozens of movies from which Darko steals from.

It is absolutely impossible to understand completely. There are two fatal flaws towards the end of the movie that make the suggested climax ridiculous.

All that being said, it's an okay, but overrated movie.

And I do like the music...I am a child of the 80's after all.

***SPOILER***

Anyone who understands the ending is lieing I'm pretty sure because by no means does it make perfect sense. It isn't one of those movies like sixth sense or fight club or SAW where the twist where you think WOW that's cool and yeh that is possible.

Donnie Darko hits a lot of different theories & when I suddenly thought hey, its about time travel and that we live on a continual loop I was bamboozled by the ending where Gretchin doesn't know him yet feels a connection to the mother of Donnie who she never even met.


Saying that, the actor playing Donie, is a fantastic actor
