A Life Changing Film....

Rating: 10/10 (2 March 2005)

There are some movies I seen in my life that help change my life and how the way I see the world. THE PASSION OF THE Christ ,PUNCH DRUNK-LOVE, HEARTS IN ATLANTIS, and now DONNIE DARKO.
A young boy by the name of DONNIE DARKO, is sort of mentally ill, sleepwalks something awful. One day he has a dream of a six foot tall demonic-like bunny who tells him the world is about to end in 28 days, 6 hours, 42 minutes, and 12 seconds. By doing this the bunny saves DONNIE from a airplane engine crashes into his room. And the scary thing is that no one knows where it came from. So as long as DONNIE does evil favors for the bunny, which name is FRANK, tells him more of the future.
Now the movie seems and looks like a slasher film, but it's totally not. It goes through it stages of horror, then science fiction, comedy, drama, and a hard dose of reality. Sometimes in the same setting. The person I really connected with is DONNIE, who like me felt abandon buy family and didn't feel like being alone, because like him I think not one person should be alone when they time is up. And basically what this movie is about. The second chance we get to set things right after we know the answers to the question in this place we call life, especially the director's cut which is just as brilliant as the original cut. And the song at the end of the movie called MAD WORLD is the summary to the whole movie and My personal favorite song in the world. This film will change your life forever. It makes you really care about it's leads and the last deleted scene on the DVD made me cry harder than on the movie. And hurted me real bad. Glad they left it out of the director's cut, although it will make even more powerful than ever. After this movie you too would want to do something that will change the world, you, and the others around you. And that's a promise on that.
