Donnie Darko. Excellent. The ending is a bit of a thinker, but the movie is quite entertaining.
I enjoy twisted movies, and if you do too, then Donnie Darko is most likely for you.
>Some may think that Donnie Darko is a typical maladjusted teenager.
Actually, Donnie is borderline delusional, beset by visions of a monstrous rabbit, which is trying to keep him under its sinister
influence. Prompted by this apparition, Donnie commits antisocial acts while he is undergoing psychotherapy, surviving the
vagaries of high-school life and romance, and fortuitously escaping a bizarre death from a falling jet engine. Donnie battles
his demons, literally and figuratively, in a series of intertwining story lines that play with time travel, fundamentalist
gurus, fate, predestination and the machinations of the universe. *MPAA Rating: R for language,
some drug use and violence.
Vanilla Sky. A feel pretty good ending. It tends to be confusing to some, but I find
the ending to be completely self explanitory. I loved this movie, simply because it was unique. It had it's moments of humor,
tragedy and shock. A definate watch a million times movie. Great for that escape.
>David Aames (Tom Cruise) appears to lead a charmed life. Handsome, wealthy and charismatic,
the young New York City publishing executive's freewheeling existence is enchanting, yet he seems to be missing something.
Then, in one night David meets Sofia (Penelope Cruz), the girl of his dreams, but loses her by making a small mistake. Thrust
unexpectedly onto a roller-coaster ride of romance, comedy, suspicion, love, sex and dreams, David finds himself on a mind-bending
search for his soul and discovers the precious, ephemeral nature of true love. *MPAA Rating: R
for sexuality and strong language.
The Crow. Now, there are 3 of these movies, The Crow...The Crow:Salvation, and The Crow:City
Of Angels. The Crow and The Crow:City Of Angels with Vincent Perez are excellent, however, don't bother seeing Salvation.
Brandon Lee's last movie, and he's fantastic in it.
>A young rock musician who was brutally murdered a year
earlier is resurrected as a vengeful superhero in this stylish noir thriller. Out to avenge his and his fiancee's killings
by destroying the city's evil crime lord, the Crow becomes a ray of hope for the city while battling his own inner demons.
Based on James O'Barr's dark comic book series, this film features Brandon Lee's final performance.
A Clockwork Orange: Crazy movie, just makes me laugh. One of those ones that are kind of odd
to those who don't mind opening up and watching some insanity. It's a brilliant, dark, poetic work.
>Stanley Kubrick's dystopian masterpiece is set in the
near future where urban thugs run wild and new methods of crime deterrence are being explored. Career gang member Alex (Malcolm
McDowell) is nabbed by the police and offered the chance to a commuted sentence if he undergoes a kind of surgical therapy.
One where his brain does not allow him to execute his violent urges.
