Donnie Darko - okay to watch?
So, I'm kind of interested in seeing this movie, because I've heard it's supposed to be good. But then I saw that it was rated R, so I'm worried about the bad content. If anyone has seen this movie, could you tell me how bad it actually is? Everything from swears to sexual content, please.
You can find out things about the past that you never knew. And from what you've learned, you may see some things differently in the present. You're the one that changes. Not the past.

From what i remember, there wasn't any sex. and yah, i think he swears here and there... but i dont remember a LOT of swearing. It's really more about... his mind and stuff. It's a pretty awesome movie, i liked it a lot. But i saw it about a year ago, so my memory is a little foggy.
You can rent it, if it's too bad for you, you can always turn it off. ahahah.
from what i remember though, it wasn't that bad. I think it was rated R cause its kinda dark. but not EVIL dark. just...yah.
i'm not making sense. XD

It's a dark, psychological movie. It has some sexual references and a fair bit of language, some violence and drug references.

I've seen it, it was good, a bit odd at parts but good.
Some of my favorite scriptures.
Psalm91
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
Hebrews 4-4
1Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.
2For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
3For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
4For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.
James 4
Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.
Revelation 22:14
Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Psalm91
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

There's quite a bit of swearing, even in the opening scene with the family at dinner. Some sexual content (but no outright nudity or sex scenes), but there is a rather colorful conversation involving the Smurfs.
It's a good movie that's very different from most other movies I've seen. If you do go and see it, I'd recommend the theatrical cut first, and if you like it then check out the director's cut.
(Edited because Ryan's post reminded me.)

The main character almost starts masturbating when he's undergoing hypnotherapy. Nothing is really shown, though.

Thanks, everyone, for giving me the low-down! I think I might pass on this movie, for now anyway. Might watch it later.
