The directors cut version is the way to go on this one. I advise people not to see the original version. My rating would drop 2 points otherwise. Great musical direction.

Fair enough if you really prefer the director's cut. But going around advising people who have never seen either version to not even watch the original cut based on your opinion is a real shame. The director would agree. The theatrical cut is actually WAY more highly regarded among Donnie Darko fans. Many fans don't even like the director's cut. The music choices in the original cut are much more liked by fans. The director's cut is often seen as having too much hand-holding and over-explaining the mystery.
