    Donnie Darko

    ★★★★

    What a weird fun movie.
    I don't fully get it and I think that's the point.
    It's constantly in between seriousness and making fun of itself so you don't know how to watch it.
    The power of the movie lays in the fact that you keep on watching although you don't understand what's happening in the plot. And I don't think I fully get it even though I watched the whole movie.

    Diservingly a cult classic!

    ★★★

    another biopic, but this one about a legend of music.
    This movie is a take it or leave it deal.
    If you like or are interested in Bob Dylan or you like the music, you are going to like this movie.
    If you don't like the music and you don't like or aren't interested in Bob Dylan, you're not going to like this movie.

    It's not a bad movie, it's just an invitation to watch it. It doesn't grab you by the neck and pulls you in.

    A masterfully made movie about a process and event that we know litlle about.
    It's a masterclass in editing, directing and acting.
    When watching it you just feel how much the people that worked on this movie know there job.
    from the first frame of the movie you know you are in good hands and those hands carry you through a ecxiting two hour yourney.

    ★★★★

    Maybe my favorite Paul Thomas Anderson movie.
    I don't fully get it, or not at all but it just feels good.
    it has a consistent tempo and is really funny without wanting it to be funny. Wich makes it even funnier.

    I would describe it like, if the Dude was just 60 procent Dude and was a private investagator. That's what the movie felt like.
