Didnt really like it at first but it was kinda interesting during the end.

I didn't like the original version of the movie at all because it was just TOO open ended. I really like the Director's Cut version because it really gave the viewer something more to work with. I bought the Director's Cut because it really was that good (and I only own 12 DVDs...)

I kinda hated the directors because it gave a lot more of the movie away earlier on. I guess you could say it dumbed it down. But, I still love the original.

Interesting movie but not a masterpiece...

i found while watching it to be a pretty good movie, but when i saw the end it just ruined it for me. my thoughts were "How stupid" i mean really there mustav been another way. but as for the first 90% of the movie. it was great.

the director's cut still confused the hell out of me so i dont think giving that little bit away hurt the film. Jake Gyllenhaal did a great job playing the ultimate screwed up teen. A weaker performance would have left Donnie Darko an empty shell of a movie. The supporting performances were also pretty good.

i didnt buy the mumbo jumbo crap about tangent universes and artifacts because you couldnt have understood that from watching the movie.
i really dont get the significance of Chinese girl.

I like the original because it was open-ended at the end. Part of the fun is trying to figure it out, even though I had to watch it 3xs. Still I don't completely understand everything, but love the movie and will probably watch it another 3xs. I haven't seen the director's cut, yet.

you can't just watch donnie darko once, it takes two times to really love the movie, after that you'll be obsessed

The funny thing is that for me when I see a good movie I can't watch it more than once (usually). I watched Donnie Darkko and I haven't been able to rent it or pick it up since. I imagine I'll need someone else who hasn't seen it to enthuse me to see it again.

I really enjoy psychological mysteries like this one tho. The original Matrix, Fight Club, etc..
