Donnie Darko

Donnie Darko is in mostly in the top ten of like every movie list.  But most people I've talked to then watch it and find it disappointing, as they don't have a clue of what just happened. I think that is what makes this movie shine.
Donnie Darko is about a normal kid called Donnie Darko (Jake Gyllenhaal), he is normal until he starts to have visions of a tall rabbit who tells him what to do. He goes to a psychiatrist. That doesn't help much.
Until two minutes before the conclusion of this movie you'll think you're on top of the plot, well let me tell you: use those two minutes wisely because the conclusion is a roller coaster.  The end is sort of dramatic, sort of sad and disappointing.
I find the rabbit a bit freaky.  Especially when it's late at night and you're lying in bed staring at the ceiling and seeing weird shadows on it.

  1. Hi Jasper,
    Miss Tracy game me the link to your site.
    This is an excellent blog: your reviewing skills are quite impressive.
    I have to admit that Donnie Darko would be a likely contender for my own top ten list. I think you hit the nail on the head with your review too, which is hard for such an ambiguous film.
    Keep up the good work. I might just log in from time-to-time to see what films I need to be on top of.
    Regards,
    Mr M.
