Not bad until the end

Rating: 4/10 (2 April 2009)

I admit that I'm a Numbers fan, so the previews of Knowing were intriguing to me. This is not a religious fundamentalist film, it has nothing to do with Christianity. It is fiction from beginning to end with some very odd views of the end of the world. If the producers meant for this to be related to the Second Coming, they are poorly reaching. I would have been far happier if the movie had stuck with Aliens instead of using Angelic images. Wouldn't it be more interesting and uplifting to have Aliens help avoid catastrophes through numbers instead of predicting inevitable ones? I was looking for a hero escape and found a depressing daydream.
