He returns home the next morning to find that a jet engine has crashed through his bedroom.

The Cult of Donnie Darko and the #1 Fan: A Darkomentary. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - One of the best movies of the new millennium...After several viewings and much thought, all I can say about this movie, in seven words or less is, "My God, what a totally fantastic flick!" A film, which I only finally saw (but had heard about, many years after it hit theaters and later DVD and cable). I really cannot say how great this film is, but I'll try. Note however, that on Amazon's rating scale from 1 star to 5, if I could, I'd give this SIX stars, but am limited to five. For this is a work which rises above the five star Amazon rating ... Read More Rating:  - Heavy...Or, Lite?I just watched "Donnie Darko" last night w/my son who is 16. My son said, he loved it, awesome. You can really take this movie 2 ways, not getting it at all, or totally loving it. I was somewhere in the middle. It was both funny, and chilling at the same time. It reminds me of a movie I saw a long time ago, called: Jacob's Ladder. Without spoiling the end of the flick for those who haven't seen it, I do encourage you to check it out. I saw someone's earlier review stating it was kind of like a Napolian ... Read More Rating: - Like a Nightmare Version of "Napoleon Dynamite"When my son brought this movie home, I thought it was going to be another predictable teen slasher. Not at all! This combination sci-fi/moody teen/drama-comedy/time paradox leaves you haunted, for all the questions left unanswered. The plot is indescribably complicated. You can't tell whether Donnie is hallucinating the giant evil bunny (a la Harvey) that tells him the world is going to end in 28 days, or whether you have joined him in a bizarre parallel world, where all the laws of science and the universe ... Read More Rating: - Where Is Donnie?-This review was written in conjunction with the standard edition of the DVD, not the 2-disc Director's Cut- 2001 was a year full of outstanding films, but one film stood out from all of the others for its sheer inventiveness, its brilliant vision, and its director's ambition. No, I'm not talking about The Lord of the Rings (although, my previous statement could easily be applied to that film as well). Richard Kelly's feature debut film as a director, Donnie Darko, is a fascinating science fiction ... Read More Rating: - Donnie Darko (Theatrical Version)As I have yet to view this version of the movie, I did purchase it based on my acceptance of the Director's Cut. This item shipped in 5 days when it was estimated from 2-12 days. This item arrived in pristine condition, wrapped in plastic. This is an excellent movie that I highly recommend, along with recommending the seller (A+ IMO) for my next purchase. It was indeed a pleasure doing business with this seller. |
