Donnie? Noo, thanks.
I heard about this movie so many times, and all these comments were great about it. And when it's like that, you have so high expectations. and then you always have dissappointments. Anyway, it was a little complicated. God, donnie was too stupid and i just did not like the way he acts :d i did not like any character in this movie. I really don't understand what people find in this movie. But you know, it's all about style.
I Don't Think So.

I think it's quite unfair to say people are being 'OVERLY' critical. When you see nothing in a film that inspires or rubs off on you, what are you supposed to do? See what everyone else thinks of it and put that as your own rating? I'm looking at the reviews other people have given it and seen no reasons as to why they like it. Only one person has given positive reasons; It's been suggested that it has a great soundtrack and that I need to be on medication to enjoy it. Fair enough, maybe that's why I missed out.

One of my favorites...
Rating : 10/10
sheesh
but once all is said and done, its still 8.30/10 out of nearly 100,000 IMDB votes, and a solid 7.9+ on listal, so it's safe to say all those OVERLY degative 1/10 'reviews' on here are clearly the minority of viewers.

Not because of any message it gave out, but because it is just that mundane, awful and over rated it forced them to believe that no God could allow such a boring film to be created.
The director of this "film" is now on Americas most wanted list for crimes against humanity.

A Film For Fools
What a snooze fest. I've had naps more productive than this film. It tries to have a philosophy when its clearly mundane and ordinary. I hope somebody lost their job over this so the footsteps can never be re-trod in.
The whole plot was pointless, it literally makes iotself redundant making the whole thing a waste of time. Yes, its weird but that shouldn't be enough for critical acclaim! Majority of the characters just seem so phoney and fake with no real intention of being memorable.
Jake Gyllenhaal is a terrible actor. I'm amazed that he still weasels his way into Hollywood. Him AND his sister need to get a career like a crash test dummy or mugasaurus. I'd gladly drop a plane on their Hollywood Home.

About as scintillating as watching paint dry.
I purchased this on DVD for £3 and it's one of the blackholes of my collection.
