I remember being underwhelmed by it. I was in High School when I watched it, but I guess I was too critical to really enjoy it. People around me were screaming it "changed their life". I had the same with Napoleon Dynamite. I tried to like it, but it was just an ok film.

Donathan Darko got me to put that Mad World song on a mix cd and feel super deep and misunderstood riding the bus to Highschool

Donnie Darko was better after I read a full breakdown of the timeline/time travel shenanigans that explained everything in the very simple terms that my feeble mind requires. That upgraded it from weird stoner movie to "oh I get it now, neat I guess."

I enjoy/enjoyed it. It's good music mixed in with some interesting scenes and dialogue. You can like a movie without any pretense of it being deep.

It's fine. It's got too much unique poo poo to be a wash, and it clearly touched enough people that it accessed something in the zeitgeist. I don't think it holds up to modest scrutiny, but it's also not like a dumpster fire unless you happen to be near rich white teenagers bleating about it circa 02-05. Richard Kelly and his team were really "feeling something" and wanted to convey it, and that's respectable. I also respect it for kickstarting Jilly Gyll's career of "I'm going to do what Jared Leto always tries to do, but successfully" wherein he weaponizes his cologne model good looks to ask the audience how much they'll take of an awful weirdo character.

It's very brave to have a high budget movie with one of the leading characters being a furry, things have really changed since the Shining

You Are A Elf posted:Nah, the director’s cut ruins what is a nice ambiguous psychological thriller and turns it into a bad sci-fi film by over explaining everything with pages of the time travel book and added unnecessary scenes. I saw it once and hated it.

it was an interesting and incoherent movie and a cool obscure movie to stumble upon but its not actually worth obsessing over and we should all just get over it if you wanna relieve the experience watch a jean rollins movie or something idk

I wanted to revisit them so I ruined a movie night with friends who hadn't seen either by watching them back to back. I think the films are still great, but I don't think my friends appreciated them as much.
