Re: Donnie Darko?
From my experience, people's opinions on this movie run from one extreme to the other. I figured the people who didn't feel strongly either way would just skip the thread. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Re: Donnie Darko?
I have to state I only said it was "interesting". I just felt it needed defending from people who clearly weren't paying attention (*cough*). The film is kinda contrived and intangible - I agree it tries too hard to be "wierd" and hence is somewhat pretentious (it's also difficult to talk about without sounding so yourself [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]). But it also works on many levels (symbolic, emotional, thriller), its funny, great soundtrack, lots of movie references, makes you think etc.

Re: Donnie Darko?
clearly it's overrated, but at least i didn't start getting frustrated by it while i was watching, and for me that's pretty damn good. however, i didn't come out thinking it was some great, revolutionary piece of cinema.
it's pretty good for what it is, but it isn't all that. |

Re: Donnie Darko?
There's two extremes. I was curious whether I was in the minority or not.

The only direct consequence of the school flooding was Barrymore getting sacked. So I figure it must have a reason. However, she does leave with the words "cellar door" which is the clue he uses at the end of the film at the old womans house. That's a bit weak though I think. |
