Donnie Darko was something that had always grabbed my attention but I had never decided to pick up at the store, but I'm glad I did. It was a very moving and powerful yet strange and sadistic movie, it is unlike anything I have ever seen, I rate it at the highest of levels for its acting and originality. Obviously it isn't to be taken serious as it is fiction but Jake Gyllenhaal does a very real and psychotic performance he just keeps getting better and better, pick this movie up when your at the store you won't regret it!
