The Great Jedi speaketh! Yup mate, Donnie Darko is one strange film and all the hoopla around it, as far as I get it, comes from its ambiguity. When people don't get something in an indie film, they are more likely to classify it as "deep". As you can see, I can't stop whining about it. Its the flipping stupid climactic twist that makes me really wince. Ah well! Keep commenting, Karan. Whoa! The Great Jedi speaketh!

I compelled myself to watch it again this time around so that I might pick up on somthing I might have missed when I say it previously. I must say I agree with your views. More so I agree with mine when I rated this film and marked it "overrated", in my response to Suyog's tag of top 50 independent films. Yes Gyllenhall plays very well, the role really suits him. Great blog Karan. Off to read more stuff :) <b>jedi</b> Looks like you caught it on TV last weekend, just like me hehe.

Must have, given your very high threshold for fantasy and sci-fi *remembering your long discussions with Neo and Disko on MS over Matrix Reloaded* I just get frustrated when over-logged with too much sci-fi gobbledygook. Yes, DD is way too over the top, but it kinda worked against it (atleast for me). Still I'll always recco this strange movie to everyone just to see what they make of it. Mullholand Drive-will be looking out for it! Thanks, Karan. So you enjoyed this movie, eh?
