Who isn't Screwed Up?

Rating: 8/10 (25 October 2009)

This is one of those movies that screams "yeah I'm screwed up and that's OK!".
Donnie Darko is portrayed in his drugged out glory by Jake G. and though his character is drugged up he is probably the most "lucid" character in the movie...
He is the only one that actually sees what is so screwed up around him...
You have teachers that are trying to reach kids through their individual methods. The phys ed teacher who brings in the self help guru played by the late Patrick Swayze (who is also screwed up).
The English teacher who is using a passive method of kids reading short stories but that isn't working either...
Donnie is doing things to save his community but in the end the only thing he can do is? Well watch the movie!!! I just watched it again and I still think it's relevant today (8 years later...) JD
