I couldn't stop thinking about this movie for days.

Rating: 10/10 (6 May 2002)

Some people see a movie and it touches them deeply. That's what this movie did for me. The first time I watched it I was left stunned. The second time I actually shed a tear. It's funny, creepy and sometimes sad. It's a brilliant freshmen effort by Richard Kelly. It can be confusing and it is much better if viewed on dvd with all the deleted scenes and commentaries. Jake Gyllenhaal gives a great performance. The supporting cast is excellent as well. The music in this movie is unbelievable. Kelly intentional picked songs that go with the story..in a weird kind of way. I get goose bumps every time "Under the Milky Way" comes on. Simply put, this is the kind of movie that inspires future directors and writers. I highly recommend this movie to all!
