A real surprise - and a pleasant one!

Rating: 8/10 (19 November 2011)

It's really rare to see a film of this type that isn't totally formulaic, and Knowing is very far from formulaic.
It's not perfect of course, but it's far from the Nic Cage car crash I was half expecting.
I literally had no idea what to expect as the plot unfolded and that's a rare treat. In some ways it felt like one of Proyas' earlier films. It's a very different story than Dark City, but it still has that eerie sense of you not knowing what on earth is really going on, which I really enjoyed.
