personally i dont know if I'd consider Darko overrated .. it did strive to be different in a time when most american film aimed at young adults is mainstream romantic comedies ... so i think it gets kudos for origionality at least.
I thought it was somewhat convoluted .. like a lot of non linear films are ..
It had some cool imagry and it dared to think about the movie once it was over which is almost unheard of for films aimed at that demographic.
Not everyone has to love it but i think it should be admired for trying to do something different.
I dont know why but i began to see Napoleon Dynamite as the flip side of this film .. they both seem to exist in the same universe ...
