Very scary bunny.
I think I should have watched this movie when I was 13, I would have been so impressed. Because I feel it is a teen movie. The direction and story feel young, fresh and immature. It has very strong parts, but also horrible cheesy moments that are completely unnecessary (the bullies, the disney XD high school portrayal, some terrible character acting here and there - I do like that the kids are not unnaturally smart or wise though). And after all, it just feels like an average movie about 'odd' vs 'normal' . I understand why it is so popular with conspiracy theory fans I know XD
I think it is worth seeing, and does deserve a cult status after its poor box office perfromance. But this film is not smart or brilliant or aesthetically significant. It is just an enjoyable movie that offers some depth in teen's mind, labelled or not.
Don't watch the The Director's Cut, it crap. I have easily watched the "original" 15 times and the The Director's Cut takes away all that is good about the movie.
Sound Effects are better in some cases but overall it's worse in every aspect.
This is just a seriously stupid movie. So overrated it hurts. It carries itself on its (however weak) supernatural elements but its fandom seems to focus on the "suck a fuck" line. Huh. That just says it all.
What makes the DC so different that the original movie?
I only saw the DC and I really didn't like it. I can understand what's good in it, but it didn't touch me as much as I expected. I was very disappointed.
Avoid the Directors Cut, it completely destroys the movie. Basically a 'for dummies' version made for the american audience who failed to grasp this brilliant gem. See the original version!

28 days, 6 hours, 42 minutes, 12 seconds. That is when my mind will be put back together.silvifeuer
One of those movies you will remember forever.danisanna
Weird, confusing, creepy, thought-provoking … and utterly brilliant!SvayamBhagavan
I wanted to hate this movie, I really did, but I just can't. It's smart, well-executed, and subtle.The_Freedom_Fellow
This is not the be all end all of mind fuck films like everyone makes it out to be, but it's still good nonetheless.mandapuspi
Thrilling, in an absurd way. Jake Gyllenhall nailed that creepy psycho looking. Still don't get why this film seems so well-known, tho.Lumen

Bkfsss
you know a movie blew my mind when i had to go read a wiki explaining the movie after watching itzaolee
I gave it dislike only because it was dumbed down by directors cut. It removed enigmatic aura from it.duksie
There are not many movies you have to watch several times, but this one is.unterwasser
