Donnie Darko

Adam's Rating : 8.5      Rotten Rating : 83       ReviewDate : 05/15/2009


Let me state something up front: if you don't want to think about your movies and you just want to be mindlessly entertained, RUN (do not walk) from this movie.

This is not to say that the movie is so deep that you can't enjoy it. The movie has a fairly interesting and bizarre plot twist at the beginning and this shoves the movie down a rather intriguing path. Much of the weirdness starts to come together towards the end. However, when the movie does end you'll need a pickaxe and mining helmet to see exactly what just happened. Or maybe not, I don't know - you can watch the film and be satisfied with what you saw or you can be the type that likes to know everything that the director wanted to convey to the audience. I spent hours reading about this movie and it really made me think about some interesting topics.

I gave the movie an 8.5 because it made me think and it entertained me.
