American Psycho executed that much better! It had something very specific to say, it was coherent and had a purpose behind the fantasy. I wish Donnie Darko made as much sense as American Psycho.
Yeah, would have been better if there wasn't any attempt to try to "make it make sense" with all the extra-movie stuff.
Like, it could have been a flipping of the "when you die you see your past life flash before your eyes" trope into a "when you die you might live out a whole future life in the flash that is your last moments." But nooooo.. couldn't do anything that cool now could they.
