Donnie Darko

DocM · 03-15-2007, 12:34 AM

Hey guys, I just saw Donnie Darko, a bit late may be I know.
Although I think I liked it, I'm a bit confused, maybe its because I watched a bit late at night.
Anyways, to those of you who've seen it, can you please shed some light on what exactly went on in that movie??
Thanks

Seen it five times, and it took me 4 times and some reading online to put all the pieces together. Combined with some imagination of course.

It was a year ago I saw the movie last so I don't remember enough to shed some light on everything, but try to do as I did. Watch it some more, watch the directors cut, read online and just think alot.

One of the best movies ever

^^ Thx, sounds like a good idea. Definitely not your every day movie obviously

Indeed, and the cool thing is, the movie was the director's first film.

This is by far one of my favorite movies.

I remember the first time I saw it, I was a bit... um under the influence, so it left wuite an impression on me, I have seen it many time since I just love it more and more. But then again I usually like all really wierd movies.

As for shedding light on it, umm, what in particular? I think for movies like these its best to just make your own interpretation or you can go and find what others say.

Yeah, and with this movie you are supposed to as well.

I have to agree with you guys. There is no single explanation for such movie. I guess it was done that way so that you make what ever you want from.
True that it may be uncommon and unconventional but I think that its simply brilliant.
