One of the most underrated films ever made, one of the best sci-fi films in a long long long long time, Nic Cage is brilliant, the kid actors' performance is chilling, it is dramatic, a really suspenseful thriller, with shocking scenes, andOne of the most underrated films ever made, one of the best sci-fi films in a long long long long time, Nic Cage is brilliant, the kid actors' performance is chilling, it is dramatic, a really suspenseful thriller, with shocking scenes, and an ending you will most likely never forget. 8 Expand

Not a bad experience actually.

Since I'm secluded from movies and yesterday I was with my family trying to find a film to watch with them on my birthday, I had to be sure the movie gonna be easy to watch. There is no need for a masterpiece, just something that brings us the will to finish it. "Knowing" works in that scenario.

The plot is much simple, as it symbologies. Also, I believe some scenes become much more predictable because the editing shows us what will happen minutes before. A good example is the plane sequence. the moment we found ourselves in the car, we can hear the airplane's turbine subtly. That's the way the movie has to inform us "See, it didn't happen suddenly. There was development. Did you hear it, right?" A proper development would fix the predictability problem.

And I know we can't judge so hard since the world was coming to an end, but goddam, that woman was stupid. Why? Cuz the script couldn't find any smarter way to advance the plot. It is so obvious sometimes.

But in the end, we love Nicolas Cage, and the movie holds your attention.
