Donnie Darko REVIEW + Mind Twisting Movies List - khaleesi - Aug 15, 2014 Well guys, I finally decided to watch the movie Donnie Darko. I didn't want to watch it before only because I thought it was a retarded bunny movie after seeing a few pictures, now I regret not watching it sooner. Spoiler (Click to View) Short summary From IMDB: Spoiler (Click to View)"Donnie Darko doesn't get along too well with his family, his teachers and his classmates; but he does manage to find a sympathetic friend in Gretchen, who agrees to date him. He has a compassionate psychiatrist, who discovers hypnosis is the means to unlock hidden secrets. His other companion may not be a true ally. Donnie has a friend named Frank - a large bunny which only Donnie can see. When an engine falls off a plane and destroys his bedroom, Donnie is not there. Both the event, and Donnie's escape, seem to have been caused by supernatural events. Donnie's mental illness, if such it is, may never allow him to find out for sure -- Written by J. Spurlin" found on: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0246578/plotsummary My opinion/review: This movie's amazing, but very mindfucking. If you don't like getting mindfucked, this movie isn't for you and it'll just give you a headache. The acting is very good in this movie, and the plot's amazing. The only thing I would change about this movie is the ending, just to make it a more happy ending, and I wish we knew more about the character Gretchen Ross. Other that, it's perfect. Donnie Darko (2001) IMDB ratings: 8.10 Though I personally give it a 9/10. Is there a sequel? Yes, there is. Will I watch it? No, I will not. It's called S. Darko (2009) IMDB ratings: 3.7 Other movies like this that I've seen and recommend plus I added my personal ratings (feel free to comment more like these below, and I'll add it to the list): Fight Club - 10/10 Shutter Island 9/10 Memento 7/10 Triangle 8/10 Vanilla Sky 8/10 The Butterfly Effect 8.5/10 The Number 23 7/10 Eternal sunshine Of The Spotless mind 7.5/10
