what I was thinking before the shock entered my mind

Rating: 6/10 (1 April 2009)

I went to see this movie because the trailer made me curious what was all the fuss about with those mysterious numbers. now I've seen the film, I can split it in two: the first half was boring as hell. Nicolas Cage acted as if he was looking in a mirror. he was the worst actor of the picture. they could easily replace him with Kevin Costner. Costner may be a diva (as I have heard), but I really really like him. but Cage? what was the last movie where he was in that was good? anyway, so here I was trying to look at my watch, because the time seemed long. this movie was even worse than Disaster Movie, which is a movie that must be appreciated by the total sum and not the parts. lucky for me, this Knowing flick had a fantastic second half, which made me forget all about the first. by that, it made the total sum correct. this movie is BEEPing great. not superb, but still good. the second part was all about these terrible things that happen (maybe the numbers have an actual reason???) and the first accident really blew me away. it shocked me. not with electricity, but just with the content (which I will not reveal for anyone who hasn't seen the movie yet). the only thing I can complain about, is the trailer. it shows us too much already. so take my advice, avoid the trailer as possible but don't miss this film!
