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.

i think that Donnie Darko was defiantely a good psychological thriller, but for me at the end made me think, and i bet it did for you also.

Anyhting that can be said about this movie in terms of its originality or ability to capture an audience would be an understatement, there is absolutely nothing like "Donnie Darko".
That isn't to say that i believe it's the best movie EVER but in the terms of its ability to force the audience to ponder over some of its philosophies and think about some of the ideas it contains, it is second to absolutely none.
It is one of the best psychological thrillers ever but be forewarned, it is not for everyone: it requires a lot of thinking and abstract thinking at that.
