Knowing Review

Thanks for checking out my review of Knowing.

The Good: First off, the story is thrilling. It comes up with amazing ideas that I can't spoil right now.

The Special Effects were incredible. They were loud and realistic. The plane wreck and train wreck were phenomenal, and the last special effect sequence (I can't give it away) is amazing.

I love Nicolas Cage, and I think he did pretty well in this movie, along with the character's son. The other actors or actresses were pretty average, though.

This movie had a lot of heart and sadness in it. You get into these characters and care about them, and one part of the movie about made me cry.

About 4 and 5 scenes in this movie are truly frightening, and had me on the edge of my seat.

You'll be surprised that this movie is not only a mystery-thriller, but also SCIENCE-FICTION.

The Bad: I wish there could have been more special-effects sequences.

Overall: One of the best movies of the year so far. It'll probably get passed up, but right now it's probably 1, 2, or 3 on the best films of the year list. A frightening, suspenseful, and exciting sci-fi-thriller with heart and sadness in it that will have conversations afterward. Knowing is a must-see movie. 9.5/10.
