    We all have dirty movie secrets, don't bother to deny it. Maybe you like watching romantic comedies when nobody's looking, or perhaps you harbour a secret love of MGM musicals of the 1940's and 50's.

    There have been many good films about time travel in the past - Back to The Future, Back to The Future 2, Mystery Science Theatre 3000 fave Time Chasers, Planet of The Apes and Freejack. Donnie Darko isn't one of them. Described as "cool", "classic" and "cult" by various beret-wearing critics wh...
