Movie Review for: Donnie Darko
When your invisible friend convinces you to commit arson, perhaps it is time to up your meds. Follow the strange hallucinations and sleepwalking nightmares of Donnie Darko. Frank is Donnie’s imaginary friend. Frank is a giant bunny and leads Donnie during his hallucinations. Donnie follows Frank down the rabbit hole like Alice in Wonderland.
When Donnie wakes up from his hallucinations with Frank, he is left putting pieces of the puzzle together. Donnie’s reality takes a bizarre turn when clues from his hallucinations start to make sense. Is Donnie correctly labeled schizophrenic, or is he really the key to time travel and righting wrongs?
Jake Gyllenhaal plays Donnie in the movie. Jake gives a great performance in the movie. His real-life sister, Maggie Gyllenhaal is fun to watch playing his on-screen sister. The movie sports big names like Patrick Swayze, Noah Wyle, and Drew Barrymore. Donnie Darko is a good movie to watch for the first time, or the thirteenth.
