incredible in many different directions

Rating: Null/10 (18 September 2004)

This movie summarizes artistic and symbolic film making. With parallels left and right I couldn't stop thinking about it after I had seen it for the first time. On the outside it's a story that could be either really weird or really stupid, but the actual film displays an idea of time travel/paranormal capabilities of any one human being is enough to get one started on trying to unfold the story itself. Donnie is also seen as a kind of a super hero in his attempts to rectify his destiny that he is so eagerly trying to find. Plus, who can escape the relationships between Jim Cunningham and the Anti-Christ as well as the strange link to Frank who was the cause of the whole predicament of Donnie's. This movie makes you think and if you'll watch it again, take a look at how the director is trying to tell you the inside of all that's going on, not just what the story is unfolding for you. That is the definition of creativity on screen.
