Okay, but not that great...

Rating: 6/10 (18 July 2002)

It seems that whenever I read about a movie, the nice people at IMDB.com recommends that I should see Donnie Darko. Well.... I already did. Many people on this page had already praised this movie, so I had to see what the fuzz was all about.
I was disappointed!
The movie is not bad, it is just plain boring. Nothing much seems to happen, but still the feeling and the tension makes you watch the entire movie. I did not find it as rewarding, as I had hoped. I would rather not go into details, as everybody probably knows the plot. My main problem is that people on this site seem to think that you LOVE this movie or you are pretty dumb. Well... I don't and I'm not. I just like a LITTLE action in films. There, I said it!
But my biggest question is: Why do the people at IMDB think that I would enjoy this movie, if I like horror, comedy, suspense, thriller, drama, or adventure, etc. Personally I do not think that EVERYBODY who loves ANY kinds of movies like this. I have seen some movies that I really liked. I have seen some i adore. This is not one of them.
Not a complete waste of time, but if you need action, don't even bother...
6/10
