It’s a pretty bizarre flick when the most stable character is a six-foot-tall freaky rabbit that puts criminal thoughts into the head of a teenager. The story follows a strange series of events in the life of Donnie Darko (Jake Gyllenhaal), a psychologically distressed boy dealing with authority issues at home and at school, love, and twisted parallel universes.
Twisted, dark and surprisingly engrossing, “Donnie Darko” is no date movie but an adult tale about teenage angst in the extreme. (113 min.)
