A true cinematic masterpiece and a cult classic

Rating: 10/10 (2 August 2008)

Donnie Darko is an amazing motion picture. What does this movie really mean? Did Donnie find a portal to another dimension? Was it at all real? The film is wide open to interpretation. Its relatively flawless and a true gem. It is funny, it is scary, it is ominous, it is bittersweet and terrifyingly beautiful. Jake Gyllenhal's performance was fantastic as was everybody else. The cinematography is great and the music is some of the best ever put on film. The cult status this film now has is largely due to its wickedly twisted plot. What did it all really mean? Its up to you the viewer to decide for yourself. This movie must be watched by everyone that breathes.
