Don't be discouraged by people who think they are "Critics"

Rating: 10/10 (22 April 2004)

Donnie Darko is a great film. Have an open mind when watching it though or you'll end up like half of America and hate the movie. This movie is #95 on the highest rated movies list.... Taste or not, thats just the facts. If you feel that every movie has to be compared to "The Matrix" sit this one out, but if you are a fan of art films, this is a must see. This film was an instant cult classic in the UK but wasnt advertised much here in America (read the last "critics" post and you'll understand why) because it wouldnt be as popular here. Sit down, pop some popcorn, dim all the lights, turn the sound and bass up real loud, sit back, and be awed. If you're a Stanly Kubrick fan like I am, this will become an instant favorite. It is literally my favorite movie.
