Salaliittoteorioiden ja kaikkien aavistuksen outojen "sattumien" ystävänä kuvittelin innostuvani tästä elokuvasta kovastikin. Alku olikin ihan viihdyttävä.

Vaan mitä sitten tapahtuukaan? Mukaan otetaan raivostuttava nainen lapsineen, jotka onnistuvat lässäyttämään mukiinmenevästi alkaneen toiminnan tyystin.

Is been years I don't put any faith in a Nicolas Cage movie and this one wasn't different. I heard a lot of people saying how good it was and I even had some hope about it but during the movie all went away and honestly, I think it's great. A great movie, a great history with amazing special efects and is not that original I know that but is good, is really good. For me is not a Nicolas Cage movie but a Chandler Cantebury movie cause without this little kid it probably wouldn't be as good as it was. Nicolas continues acting without any expression but Chandler has such a chemestry with the actor, sympathy and is hard to not like him. Probably (until now) the only movie that surprised me this year.

Rating : 7/10

The next number on the chain predicts that tomorrow, somewhere on the planet, 81 people are going to die, in some kind of tragedy." Knowing is Alex Proyas' take on the typical end-of-the-world disaster movie formula, infused with an intriguing assortment of additional genre elements, including ghost stories and conspiracy thrillers with a dash of science fiction. Director Proyas (back on the sci-fi chain gang, following Dark City and I, Robot) has taken what begins as a fairly straightforward sci-fi premise to heights of psychological and visceral bravado. However, Knowing is a classic case of a movie that's cramme...Read more
