In a word, amazing.

For a long time I searched for 'the best movie I've ever seen.' I thought about it for awhile but couldn't come up with an answer. Then I saw Donnie Darko. Bam. There was my answer.
Donnie Darko is not a movie for everybody. If you consider American Beauty one of the best movies you've ever seen, skip it. It's full of mind bending twists, insane camera work, beautiful special effects, and amazing performances. I loved every minute it of. After five minutes I was saying to myself, "This movie is perfect." I'd recommend it to anyone willing to see it. Quite simply the best movie I've ever seen.
