Body Beautiful of Minus Soul...

Rating: 5/10 (28 June 2009)

Have you heard the phrase Body Beautiful of Minus Soul.... I am sure you must have. Knowing directed by Alex Proyas is true to that phrase.
The film's idea is more than interesting, the film has Nicolas Cage, then what's the problem? The film's 1st hour is excellent,, but the second hour loses grip, the film becomes boring and tedious. The climax is shocking and really funny. Writer Ryan Douglas Pearson had the opportunity to make 'Knowling' a killer script, with brilliant execution to the motion picture. Sadly the writer and director give the viewer a toss.
Pluses of the film: The film's idea is catchy, so is its first hour. Nicolas Cage provides the star-value.
Minuses: The film loses grip, especially the climax which is a complete letdown. The Adam & Eve concept falls flat. Background Music could've been stronger, as the film has those fast- paced moments.
Final word? 'Knowing' is at best an average fare.
