one amazing movie

Rating: 10/10 (25 December 2006)

i have seen this movie probably 30 times, and every time i understand it more. It is definitely confusing and twisted, but at the same time it is also really funny and smart. Though there is time travel and some pretty far-fetched ideas, it is a movie that anyone can relate to and enjoy. At it's core Donnie Darko is about a boy who makes the ultimate sacrifice to save the ones he loves, in doing so he also saves the entire universe. I would recommend this movie very highly though it isn't for everyone.
I loved Jake Gyllenhaal's performance as the teenage hero. He was smart, funny, twisted, and surprisingly normal.
