Default Re: Donnie Darko

That's a good flick. I'm not one that needs to have a plot explicitly lain out for me. Even so, the first time I watched it I got to the end and though I'd enjoyed the movie I was like "WTF!!!". To this day I think it fails in some ways to provide good exposition. But its pluses - a good sense of humor, great acting, music that nails the mood, and an escalating sense of foreboding and doom - easily override that.
