John & Becky's Movie Review Of Knowing

knowingBecky and I went to see Knowing this week, at the Kerasotes theater in Castle Rock, CO. The Fandango website at Knowing

Almost Famous full

describes the movie as follows.

Academy Award® Winner Nicolas Cage (National Treasure: Book of Secrets, Leaving Las Vegas) stars in KNOWING, a gripping action-thriller of global proportions about a professor who stumbles on terrifying predictions about the future—and sets out to prevent them from coming true.

The Review
Knowing is Nicolas Cage’s latest attempt at a blockbuster film.  There are parts of it that are pretty good, with some suspenseful elements of the movie.  As his character follows this sheet of numbers and major catastrophe’s take place it gets a bit nuts.  Then the aliens start to come into the picture and it’s all downhill from there.

You quickly lose interest in the film as you realize that Knowing isn’t about some guy who finds a piece of paper with events taking place.  It’s really about a group of angels or aliens on spaceships coming to save the human race and populate a planet with our species.  Kind of like a modern day version of Noah’s Ark with spaceships.  This will happen before the world is completely destroyed by a blast from a gigantic solar flare.

Whatever the reason for what we knew, you can know this for sure.  Knowing isn’t worth the price of admission, but it may make a good Rental.  Had we known this before we went into the theater, we know that we would have saved some money on this one.
