"Donnie Darko", deeply rooted in the formative tendencies of film, is a captivating, eerie work of art. It comes complete with a wonderful score, an array of fantastic cinematography, as well as a plot that does not fail to stun and scare. The movie follows, Donnie Darko, a disturbed teen who was a pyromaniac as a child. His psychological problems come to a head when he begins to see visions of a strange rabbit named Frank, who has some chilling news for him. The plot often leaves the viewer wondering why, but, as usual, it all comes together in the end. Moreover, it is an astonishing reassembly of references made throughout the film. A truly amazing film.
