Knowing stars Nicolas Cage as a guy who discovers a series of
> numbers that foretell disasters and how he has to deal with this knowledge.
It’s directed by Alex Proyas – the guy behind Dark City and I, Robot. This has more in common with Dark City than I, Robot though. I think he’s a talented guy and will always check out his work.
Knowing, however, is a good movie…. maybe. I fully expect this to be a love-it-or-hate-it movie. People who hate it will find it laughable when it wants to be awesome… and I thought it was being awesome legitimately but there was that part of me that just KNOWS people will not buy it because the ideas are big and grandiose and it takes it very serious. No room for irony.
I will say this thought – the movie pulls absolutely no punches. It goes there – all the way there.
Good movie.
