Goodbye to comments under me. This movie is one of the best, compelling and interesting movies that has ever been made. Maybe it's just because I can relate to it, but this shit man......

Haven't seen it since it came out. Donnie is instantly a bit of an annoying cliché (he even occasionally pulls a weird zoned out face because that's what crazy people do.) He's just so dark and moody isn't he? The dialogue, like with the 'go suck a fuck', around the table was juvenile and didn't fit into the average suburban setting at all. You won't find any naturalism here. A lot of the dialogue is just annoying teens being dicks. Maybe…

The movie offers a lot of room for speculation and is sometimes very strange but also very compelling.

lol. this is one of the films that I have to google to find an explanation. I feel like I know what I watched but at the same time, unsure if I was right. hence, the googling. ugh. I like it though, it's hypnotic, you'll want to watch until the end.
