- Mr721. mai 2026I'd love to smash Rose Byrne and this movie, in a different way, of course. This movie is an extremely predictable flaming pile that's great, if you're there to make fun of it. I would love to see a mystery science theater done on this wank fest. If this movie surprises you in any way, you MIGHT be dumber than a 5th grader. JS....
- Neon Ghloes15. mai 2026It's an AMAZING film once you write and visualize an ending to it, for yourself.... I chose to have Caleb be gay, and not attracted to Abby in that procreate-y kinda way. Or maybe Abby is a strong Lesbian that takes Caleb as her flesh robot. Doing her worldly bidding! Either one... Putting a stop to that story origianl line. Nail. In. Coffin. Killed it. Sweetass movie once it has a bleakass ending, don'tch ya think?!
- "THE MOVIE FANATIC"12. januar 2026Just an all round very creative, interesting and a cleverly written movie, in terms of how the concept of the film is, handled & utilised! I thought it was very well crafted was really put together nicely, with its themes and the message that it's trying to convey. Also I loved the symbolism in it and the foreshadowing especially, with what the pebble meant, that was very well thought out and how it all fitted & connected everything. Nicolas Cage put in one of his best all round performances in years here. And only a couple of years previously, he was coming off the back of, one of the most roasted movies of all time "The Wickerman Remake" a big turnaround for him this movie was I thought. Really loved how John was deciphering all of the numbers and what they all ultimately meant in the 1st act, that was very creative and had my full attention the whole time. The movies tone, visuals, cinematography are very well shot along with its really good sequences laced throughout. The only issues I had with it is "Rose Byrnes" character, she was so frustrating in certain points of the film, such as when "Diana" doesn't listen to "John" and wants to do things her way, which wouldn't have worked by the way and then takes not only her daughter but "Caleb" as well and then drives off, that bit always annoys me. I also thought that as much as I loved the foreshadowing with the pebble, I did think however with how they got there in the 3rd act, that they really cut corners with it, just purely how they got to that destination, it could have been done & handled in a more interesting way other than her scappering and taking the kids, because she wants to do things her way and then the half men & half aliens taking the two kids and getting there that way. It seemed they got there in an illogical way, rather than a putting the pieces together and then finding it just on time kind of way! They could have done it like that. And where there all driving to that destination quickly, as a race against the ⏰️ would have made it even more gripping & thrilling. Even though I had a couple of issues with it, this is one of those rare times that, it isn't going to effect my rating that I give this unique & brilliant movie. Overall Knowing is a hidden 💎 that's criminally underrated, this is imo is definitely one of Nicolas Cage's best movies and is a film that I can't recommend enough, it's so different as well I love it. 👍👍
- Manuel Frangis20. februar 2025I just watched Knowing and I give it 5 out of 5 stars. This movie completely caught me off guard in the best way because I expected a normal mystery thriller and instead got something that felt emotional, intense, and strangely beautiful all at once. From the moment the time capsule is opened and that sheet filled with numbers shows up, I felt pulled in like I was solving a puzzle myself. It is one of those openings that quietly grabs your brain and refuses to let go. I love movies that make me curious right away, and this one had me leaning forward, trying to decode every clue alongside the characters. Nicolas Cage plays John Koestler in a way that feels grounded and human, which really surprised me. He is not over the top or goofy like people sometimes joke about with Cage. Here he feels tired, stressed, and very real, like an exhausted dad just trying to protect his kid. That made everything hit harder emotionally. Instead of watching some action hero, I felt like I was watching a regular person slowly realizing the world might be ending, and that fear in his eyes made the whole story more believable. The disaster scenes honestly shocked me with how raw they felt. The plane crash especially is filmed in this long, chaotic way where the camera just follows the destruction without cutting away, and it almost feels too real. There is no dramatic posing or cool one liners. It is messy, loud, and tragic. People are scared and confused, and you feel helpless watching it. I really respect that choice because it treats the events seriously instead of turning them into cheap spectacle. It made my stomach drop, which almost never happens for me with movies. What I loved most though was the atmosphere. The music, the darker colors, and the quiet moments between John and his son give the film this heavy, thoughtful feeling the whole time. It is not just about numbers predicting disasters. It becomes about fate, faith, and whether anything we do actually changes what is coming. I kept thinking about my own family while watching it, and that emotional connection made the story feel personal instead of distant science fiction. By the time the ending came, everything felt bigger and more spiritual than I expected. Some people might see it as strange, but for me it felt peaceful and meaningful. It left me sitting there after the credits just thinking about life, destiny, and what really matters when everything else falls away. Movies that make me reflect like that always stick with me for days. Knowing is not just a thriller or a sci fi movie. It is a story about a father, a son, and trying to find hope when things feel completely out of control. It surprised me, moved me, and stayed in my head long after it ended, which is exactly what a perfect five star movie should do for me personally.
- Gianni Cavuoto30. november 2025This is not a Nicolas Cage movies that's a throwaway....as we know he does a decent amount of them. A dramatic role that keeps you engaged and is a great and twisted story. For me the end is a bit of a let down but the rest of the movie is a good time so it worth a watch. Others may enjoy the ending, I didn't. It's not top of the heap for Nicolas Cage, but it's nowhere near the bottom.
