just watched vs. butterfly effect

Rating: 8/10 (3 April 2005)

Having tried to watch the movie a year or so ago on the sidelines, I stopped watching.
I've watched it just now, after watching Butterfly Effect about six months ago. This one is a good flic in its own. I saw the basic guy teen working things out for himself that many seem to do. I also saw that this guy teen act out in such a way that seemed to show a portent that he knew that there were no repercussions in his actions, e.g. the suggestion that his teacher add a literature to her rectum or the blaze that would be set afoot after the meeting with Frank.
In that right, I think that this movie is quite good. The ending was a bit sad, whereas the ending of a like movie Butterfly Effect was actually uplifting.
Donnie did well with what he had and actually expressed some good teenager angst, but didn't do anything with it; however, the character from Butterfly Effect learned from his mistakes and helped his family.
Two disparaging movies that made me think along the same ways.
