Movie Review



In 1958, as part of the dedication ceremony for a new elementary school, a group of students is asked to draw pictures to be stored in a time capsule. But one mysterious girl fills her sheet of paper with rows of apparently random numbers instead.

Fifty years later, a new generation of students examines the capsule’s contents and the girl’s cryptic message ends up in the hands of young CALEB KOESTLER. But it is Caleb’s father, professor JOHN KOESTLER (Nicolas Cage), who makes the startling discovery that the encoded message predicts with pinpoint accuracy the dates, death tolls and coordinates of every major disaster of the past 50 years. As John further unravels the document’s chilling secrets, he realizes the document foretells three additional events—the last of which hints at destruction on a global scale and seems to somehow involve John and his son. When John’s attempts to alert the authorities fall on deaf ears, he takes it upon himself to try to prevent more destruction from taking place.

With the reluctant help of DIANA WAYLAND (Rose Byrne) and ABBY WAYLAND, the daughter and grand daughter of the now-deceased author of the prophecies, John’s increasingly desperate efforts take him on a heart-pounding race against time until he finds himself facing the ultimate disaster—and the ultimate sacrifice.~ Rotten Tomatoes


After eating a delicious dinner at Cherokee Steakhouse and Marina (Steak, Shrimp, Baked Potato, Salad and Rolls), we came home to watch our newest movie the hubs had bought, "Knowing".

I wasn't impressed. Hubby loved it though. Maybe it was because I am not much in to Sci-Fi movies (if this would even be considered one). It started our extremely slow, and by the time it did get somewhat interesting, I had lost interest. The scene effects were great though, I will give them that. If you're gonna watch it, I'd say wait till it comes on a movie channel.
