YES!!!
I didn't see Donnie Darko when it first came out, and in fact had never heard of it, but when Marek and I first started dating in 2006, it was his daughter's favorite film, and also one of his.
We rented and watched it, and it quickly became a favorite of mine as well, which I've now seen at least half a dozen times.I haven't seen the Director's Cut yet, so I'll have to make that a point.
Fun fact, both Donnie Darko and Back to the Future have plot points that feature my birthday: October 26th.
And it doesn't hurt that I love time travel stories. ;-)
I loved the plot from the beginning, but then, I tend to love complex convoluted stories and plot twists.
And yeah, the actual science left something to be desired, but I'm willing to suspend disbelief for a good tale.
