This movie had the potential to be a really good horror movie. A scary monster, lots of dead people... it started out pretty interesting. But the whole psychic thing was stupid and played out very badly, the movie lost me right there & just got worse after that. This is definitely one that you should watch only on cable if you absolutely have nothing better to do.
I can't get Donnie Darko out of my head. I don't know what I expected upon renting this movie - I guess given the demonic bunny mentioned on the video jacket I thought Donnie would be disturbed & evil. How far from true. This character was truly compelling and what the bunny actually means is so far from what is expected at the beginning. I gave this movie a 10 despite it's flaws (bullies, Drew Barrymore's character) because the story of Donnie himself and how it all unwinds is so incredible. I just loved Donnie Darko - he & his story will be with me for quite a while.
Esai Morales makes a wonderful bad guy. Frankly, I wanted him to come kidnap me! I think this is an enjoyable movie, one where the bad guy is so compelling you almost sympathize with him. The ending could've been less predictable though... oh well, definitely worth a rental anyhow, in my opinion!
