Better off not "Knowing" ***Possible Spoiler....**

Rating: 1/10 (24 November 2009)

OK, we see that 2009 is not going to set any Oscars records. No Slumdog. No Changeling.
So, looking back... we have a bunch of tripe that Hollywood handed to us this year. "Knowing" is amongst the worst of what we saw.
Mr. Cage is more catatonic than he should have been in "Leaving Las Vegas".
The story is built on a flimsy foundation and completely falls in under its own weight in the last sequence.
The only good part of the film is some of the creepy stuff that happens in the muddled middle of the movie when two supposedly responsible parents leave their children alone in a car while they rummage a flophouse in the woods. (Intentionally abstract here).
There are better things to watch. Start with "A Touch of Evil" if you haven't seen it.
