Movie Reviews of Donnie Darko: The Director's Cut [Blu-ray]

Movie Review: Donnie Darko not great on blu-ray
Summary: 3 Stars

This is one of my favorite films of all time, and when i heard it was on blu-ray, i couldn't wait to get it. after viewing it last night, i realized that this is just a straight transfer from the original DVD. So, if you are looking for that eye-popping detail, you won't see it here. just stick to your DVD that is already in your collection.

Movie Review: Blu-ray Not What It Should To Be! (Director's Cut)
Summary: 2 Stars

I know I am stepping into very serious Cult following here..But this review is DEFINATELY NOT ABOUT THE MOVIE, which is a Masterpiece of film making! ~~ So put down the Guns, and Rocket Launchers. ~~I finally crossed over into the World Of Blu-ray, and began replacing some of my old favorites to BR. In the begining it was awsome, but now, just like Donnie Darko and more recently, Dune. I feel decived,..it seems that studios will put any movie on Blu-ray, and it will sell just because,...("if its Blu-ray it will be an eye Candy visual feast")... well I am sorry, but the "Feast" has gone Sour!... Much of Blu-ray recently, sucks!...I know Donnie Darko is an older film,.. but look at what they did with PSYCYO/BR, a very old Movie: Just Great!...But a movie of Donnie Darko CULT STATUS, deserves at least a Remastering,and if need be a frame buy frame clean up, and upgrade to a *REAL: 1080P*! This movie does NOT LOOK LIKE 1080P,..maybe 1/2 or 3/4 of that, at the most,...instead we get this Blury Mess they quickly put together! I bought this at Wal-mart, I returned it and said the picture was locking up..TG I still have my origional widescreen, Theatrical version.

Movie Review: Donnie Dorko
Summary: 2 Stars

I know now why i never watched this movie years ago, and i'm a HUGE fan of psychological horror. This i'm afraid is one of the dumbest movies i've ever seen. For one i'm not a fan of Jake Gylenhall at all, for another this movie makes no sense even in the world of a demented mind. Seeing visions, time travel, jet engines falling on your room for no reason, doing something because you take medication for your troubles and an evil guy in a scarey bunny mask tells you to? Ok. Well it seems the general premise of the movie was to be clever, just like a lot of bands, and tv shows try to be, or speak cleverly to prove its something unique. This movie is a joke within itself, it contradicts itself, by trying to be serious and again by trying to be darkly funny. Well neither work and the movie just falls flat and you end up fast forwarding through the last 40 minutes or so. Anyways movies like this just make me wonder how people can try and come up with ideas, and i think to myself wow i could come up with something ten times more clever. But my ideas would never get heard, this movies is not demented, it just attempts to be.

Movie Review: Excellent Film, AWFUL Blu-Ray Transfer
Summary: 1 Stars

Man, I've loved this movie ever since word spread about it being a must-see right after it came out on DVD. Fox really screwed the pooch on the transfer, it looks like a muddy VHS tape straight from the 80s where this story takes place. I seriously hope they're not trying for another double dip as it got on DVD, because as much as I love Richard Kelly, I simply will not be taken advantage of again.

Movie Review: Bad Blu-Ray transfer
Summary: 1 Stars

I love this movie and would give it 5 stars. But the Blu-ray version is really bad. They didn't even make the special features in HD. The movie looks really bad. You can tell the difference by looking at the previews in the disc and then watching the movie. I am really disappointed in this.
