Review This Product

Thu, 17 Jan 2008 | Review by: Spaceygirl

"Donnie Darko" is simply one of strangest little films I have ever seen and may just be my new favourite of all time! Jake Gyllenhaal is simply AMAZING in the title role. His range is simply astounding and is one of the most talented young actors of his generation. He is admirably supported by an able cast, including his sister Maggie, which was a master stroke in casting as it lends an authentic air of continuity. The chemistry between Gyllenhaal and Jena Malone is equally impressive. But it is the plot and script which astounded me, the dialogue is astounding and the twist, when it arrives, is audacious and mind-blowing. It is a film which demands multiple viewings.
