The best and the brightest

Rating: 10/10 (5 June 2005)

"Donnie Darko" is simply the best science fiction movie ever made, bar none. Although I have not read reviews for this feature, all I could add is that I agree wholeheartedly with any and all accolades and praise, and believe any negative comments must be from ignorant losers who should crawl back into their pathetic hovels and never resurface. "Donnie Darko" is to the science fiction genre what Lynch's "Blue Velvet" is to the fantasy genre. The entire story is intriguing and edited beautifully. Whoever is responsible for the movie, Drew Barrymore and others, did everything, including casting, perfectly. In my book at least, Darko replaces the original "Alien" as the acme to be judged against in science fiction movie making. The only reasons for not seeing "Donnie Darko" would include being a fool or being a masochist. If you are offended by fun and good story telling, then "Donnie Darko" may not be for you.
