This movie is boring acadeic crap; on a par with that Moholland drive crap.

Have to agree with James on this one -though I have not seen M Drive. Donnie Darko is terrible for a number of reasons. It doesn't help when the director cuts out his self described "crucial" scene. Still, in would of been bad either way.

I wouldn't recommend reading this if you haven't seen the movie.

Personally it's the best movie I have seen to date.

I note in the review:
"Two high points for Objectivists are the painfully accurate portrayal of an educationally bankrupt school and an interesting, subtle proof of the non existence of God."

Ironically the movie concerns divine intervention, although it leaves it quite paradoxical  throughout the movie (Religion/Science) This is thanks to the omission of a line near the beginning when we first see Donnie meet Frank. It's what the director chose to leave out of the movie that makes it work.

At worst this movie is about someone who overcomes his fear of dying alone. At best, well, I won't even begin my explanation.

I love this movie.

What, can anyone tell me, was the subtle disproof of God's existence?

No one knows the disproof of God's existence from this movie?
