Knowing = Ezekiel!

Rating: 10/10 (7 May 2009)

Knowing is a modern time version of Ezekiel with Hollywood sprinkled in. Many say they don't see the parallels but there are so many. The book of Ezekiel is the most time documented book in the bible. He gives the date and the place of everything - just like the paper John's (Cage's character) son receives. Also, Ezekeil came from a family of priests. Likewise, Cage's character of John is the son of a preacher. Ezekiel's wife died and he's told not to mourn openly. John's wife died and he won't talk about it. Ezekiel starts acting really weird and so does John. The idea of a wheel within a wheel within a wheel within a wheel is so hard to understand when one reads Ezekiel. So is the concept of seeing an angel but not realizing it. However, the special effects at the end of the movie make those concepts so much more mentally tangible. I thought it was the most emotionally scary movie I've seen in a very long time.
