I'm one of those guys that enjoys basically every movie he watches. That's partly because I'm fairly selective of what I watch, partly because I try to go out of my way to find something interesting about each movie. Donnie Darko is probably the only widely acclaimed movie I've seen that I just straight up hated. It relies on the audience going out to read the external material that they published for the time travel part to be explained, since it was left out of the movie (except if you pause when they show a few pages of the book for a few frames). The entire payoff of the movie comes at a scene at the end where, in the extremely downcast sky, a plane comes down because the protagonist learns he is in complete control of this tangent universe and has the power to telekinetically bring down that plane, and he must close the circle that led to the creation of the tangent universe (which kills him in the real universe). The issue is, you can't see the dang plane going down because of how downcast the sky in that scene while the attention is guided towards the car in that shot. You had no reason to believe that he was gonna do that. There was no setup for that payoff in the movie.

Anyway, I haven't seen City of God yet, so you're in luck I can't put your entire fake bloodline on blast.
