Review of Donnie Darko (2001) by Johnny L — 30 Oct 2013
"Donnie Darko" is a milestone. Perfect choice of actors, excellent soundtrack, great script. Drama, teenage romantic comedy, sci-fi, mystery, thriller, "Donnie Darko" is all this and a lot more.
Effortlessly shifting moods, filled with profound symbolisms and requiring at least two viewings to get to know this brave new cinematic yet real world and feel all there is to feel, it's an engrossing and, finally, genuinely moving picture.
If the "ultimate film" - one that deals with everything in the most moving way - truly exists, it's this one.
