Goodbye to comments under me. This movie is one of the best, compelling and interesting movies that has ever been made. Maybe it's just because I can relate to it, but this shit man......

The movie offers a lot of room for speculation and is sometimes very strange but also very compelling.

@drnkmnky Unless you watch the stupid director's cut. ;)

@Robin Abrahamsson I wouldn't know about that, since I have never seen the director's cut. But because of your comment I will stay away from it, lest it ruins the film for me (-:

lol. this is one of the films that I have to google to find an explanation. I feel like I know what I watched but at the same time, unsure if I was right. hence, the googling. ugh. I like it though, it's hypnotic, you'll want to watch until the end.

Ends on not one but two of the laziest narrative devices: the "it was all just a dream" and the open-ended "insert your interpretation here". I figured there had to be a reason it took me so long to try this movie.

Not many movies could engage me as much as Donnie Darko did, but it has. I've watched this movie many times and I love watching it every time. It's definitely an experience I'll remember for the rest of my life, as it helped me open my eyes to a lot of things. Definitely recommended. Finally, don't watch the sequel, it's bloody awful.

Don't know why this movie has a rate so high. It's good, but not that good.

A brilliantly crafted science-fiction thriller, Donnie Darko is a beloved cult film from writer/director Richard Kelly. The story follows a high school student named Donnie Darko who starts to have visions telling him that the world is ending, and he soon comes to believe that the visions are guiding him to fulfill a higher purpose. Featuring Jake Gyllenhaal, Jena Malone, Drew Barrymore, and Patrick Swayze, the film has a solid cast that delivers some impressive performances. The writing is also quite exceptional, and is able to convey high-minded concepts and creates a mysterious and cryptic tone. Additionally, the soundtrack and score do an outstanding job at complimenting the look and feel of the film, and gives it the right energy. Donnie Dark is an expertly crafted dark thriller that’s extremely compelling and thought-provoking.

Absolutely one of the best movies I've seen this year! It somehow managed to be confusing, compelling and conclusive at the same time, and I for one will have a hard time forgetting the bunny. If you have an extra two hours, you should absolutely watch this movie!

One of my favorite movies and absolutely brilliant. Richard Kelly created a masterpiece of confusion and one of the best endings ever with the mad world song montage.

Was not expecting to like this one as much as I did. I don't think it's a masterpiece or like the greatest movie ever, but that's not to say I was fully intrigued and focused on it from beginning to end. Enough engaging sequences and surprisingly funny scenes brought this psychological ride to the level that I would consider to be great. I don't necessarily get the huge fan-base it's gotten, but I could see it as more of a cult hit. It's a bizarre movie and not one I'll probably revisit soon, but I'm glad I saw it. When Donnie ripped into Jim Cunningham, I was on the verge of laughing my ass off. That scene alone earns this movie at least four stars.

"Donnie Darko" is one of the stranger, more baffling films you'll ever see. Mental illness, arson, high school, dreams, Armageddon, murder, self-help, religion, etc. etc. etc., are all lumped into a truly entertaining and mysterious mass of a movie. Oh yeah! And I did forget to mention that a jet engine, a 6-foot tall rabbit, and time travel get thrown into the mix as well. If all of this sounds appealing to you, then you need to run not walk to your nearest video store and pick up "Donnie Darko". I suggest the video store because you're going to have to watch this multiple times to get any idea of what is going on.

But this is a lot of fun. I can't say it's a great movie and all of the references and symbols will have you searching Wikipedia for days. I really don't know what this movie means or if Richard Kelly is playing us all for fools as we watch it repeatedly for the true meaning of life or something. All I can say is that "Donnie Darko" is a true curiosity of a movie. I wish there were more like it.
