Deranged, weird, but brilliant.

Rating: 8/10 (17 September 2009)

Since Patrick Swayze just died recently, I have decided to review some of his films. I have already reviewed Dirty Dancing and Ghost. Now, I am reviewing Donnie Darko, the one he had the weirdest role in. In Donnie Darko, Patrick Swayze played Jim Cunningham, who was actually a pedophile. Yeah, I told you it was his weirdest role.
Donnie Darko isn't a film that I loved, but I did think it was very good. The story is unique. The acting is pretty good, and well, the film just works. I found this film to be pretty disturbing. Especially cause of that Bunny Frank, who Donnie sees repeatedly throughout the film and who saved his life. I am not going to get into the plot because it is too unique but I will say that the film has to do with time travel. I really thought that Donnie Darko was a cool and interesting film. It's hauntingly brilliant and I give it a big thumbs up.
Donnie Darko: ***1/2 out of ****
