Nic cage finally back in a better movie.

Rating: 7/10 (1 April 2009)

I got this movie in the sneak (in the Netherlands, we always get late movie releases here).
I was curious how this movie would be, because nic cage doesn't act in any good movies lately. But this movie pretty good overall. It kept you interested through most part of the movie. It's bin a while that nic cage has bin in a good movie, Next was good fun but not that great.
In the late 50's a school is celebrating there opening with a barriel of a time capsule. This time capsule was a idea of a girl called lucinda. Everyone had to make a drawing of how the future would look like. And Lucinda only put a bunch of numbers on the paper.
After 50 years the time capsule get opened by the son from nic cage character. Later on the evening by accident a date from the twin tower disaster. And checks out some of the other dates on the paper. All of them from major disasters and 3 dates that still had to happen. Nic is going to find out where it's going to happen and try to stop it, but can't The idea of this is good and worked out well, and sorry if I explain it not that clear, but I'm dutch. Where the movie failes is at the end of the movie. And that's really to bad, because the movie is interesting. The end is a cliché and done to many times before. This doesn't ruin the whole movie but you leave the theater with a feeling that they could write a better ending. I don't know how to say it exactly but people who have seen it know what I mean.
Also the visual effect are for the most part good. Only one part is a bit of fake. They used on a part digital fire and it's clearly fake and that's for this movie a bit weak, because the rest is greatly done.
You should check this movie out, but prepare for a clichéd ending.
