Knowing (2009)
Starring Nicolas Cage and Rose Byrne
Driected by Alex Proyas
Rated PG-13 for disaster sequences, disturbing images, and brief strong language
2 hours 1 minute
It starts out like the National Treasure films: Nicolas Cage plays a smart guy who works to unscramble a coded message. Only this time, the message has to do with world disasters and predictions for more in the future. Soon his family gets involved and it becomes a race against time to save everyone. I was really into this film for the first hour and a half – it was a fun thriller which made you want to find out what happens next. Unfortunately I did find out and it was pretty disappointing (other than the special effects). Can someone please find me a movie with a satisfying end?
Grade: B-
