Donnie Darko is a great movie!

Rating: Null/10 (24 January 2011)

Donnie Darko is a great movie. It takes place over 28 days.
It's a very dark movie.
Jake Gyllenhaal does a fantastic job at portraying the troubled teenager. His acting made the movie for me. The movie is sort of confusing, and you see things you didn't realize after you watch it a few times. There are lots of subplots, one of which involves Drew Barrymore who is a school English teacher. The set is fantastically done and very pretty. I honestly can't think of any bad things about Donnie Darko. The directing, acting, lighting, soundtrack--no complaints from here! If I had to say one bad thing about it it would probably be how confused I was after watching it for the first time. It's an amazing movie that you can definitely watch a couple of times and still be interested in it.
