Editorial Review:
A college professor (Nicolas Cage) opens a time capsule that has been dug up at his son s elementary school. In it are some chilling accurate predictions of disasters... when, where, and how many will die. Most of these events must uncover the details of the next disasters in hopes of preventing them. If he fails, who knows how many will die?

Description of Knowing [Blu-ray]:
Nicolas Cage stars in this largely unsatisfying science-fiction tale that begins as a taut and spooky story concerning psychic legacies and ends up falling back on Steven Spielberg's old, cosmic playbook for default explanations about weird phenomena. Cage stars as astrophysicist and widower John Koestler, whose young son attends a school where a 50-year-old time capsule is dug up and opened. Koestler's son, Caleb (Chandler Canterbury), is given an envelope from the capsule containing a sheet of paper inscribed with seemingly-random numbers. Koestler interprets groupings of the numbers as prophesies (made in 1959) of disasters leading up to a globally catastrophic event late in 2009. Moreover, some of the later tragedies involve him or members of his family, suggesting the paper was meant to fall into his and Caleb's hands. That’s not the only freaky thing drawing father and son in a direction they really don't want to go. Among other things, a quartet of mute strangers keeps showing up with a powerful interest in Caleb's whereabouts, and the daughter and granddaughter of the little girl who originally scribbled those numbers in 1959 are under the shadow of a separate prediction of doom. Everything goes swimmingly until it's time for director Alex Proyas (The Crow) to begin tying up all the strings, and cliches start falling like rain. On the plus side, Knowing includes a couple of breathtaking scenes of calamity, the most horrifying (and realistic) of which is a jet crash the likes of which has never been committed to film. --Tom Keogh

Knowing [Blu-ray] Reviews:
KNOWING-movie
2009-12-01 - I am so glad I found this movie, been wanting it for a while. It was well worth the wait. This was a terrific movie but I would not want to know the dates on which disasters are going to happen and certainly would not want to know the number of how many died. Nick Cage was terrific as always. It was an edge of seat type of movie. It was a very good movie and one that I've seen no other like. It's worth the time to watch.

The knowing...
2009-11-30 - An okay but interesting movie about the end of time. The story line leaves something to be desired.....It definitely needs some tuneups with some indepth explainations. I liked the ending.

one of the worst movies ever....
2009-11-29 - Honestly this movie was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. The acting was aweful and the basic plot lacked consistency. Don't waste your time!

I just saw one about 2012...
2009-11-24 - Apocalyptic sci-fi with aliens are pretty popular with
the global warming happening before our eyes.
I kind of enjoyed this "whispering" prediction
and calling of the chosen type movie.
The Mayan calender with it's 2012 date is based
on a long term observed solar cycle.
There in no real evidence that there will be a
spike in activity at that date. Actually we seem to be
in a time when the solar cycle is resetting to a low point.
If such a movie makes people think,
it may well be a good thing,
like the flying saucer movies of the 50's.


Dreadful!
2009-11-24 - Basic idea behind this film - believe in god, go to heaven; don't believe in god - burn in hell. Not that heaven looks all that appealing, if it's inhabited by sinister non-talking angels who frighten you half to death. The production budget must have been high, but the acting is flat, the premise is incredibly flawed and unbelievable (not to mention boring), and you're left at the end wondering if that's all there is - a scary Eden. If you like fire and brimstone and the idea that nonbelievers, despite being fellow human beings and decent people, all burn in hell, you'll probably like this awful film.
