Movie Review: The Knowing


My weekend in Dallas was interesting to say the least, it had many crazy unpredictable parts and seeing this movie was one of them. My friend Tara and I officially wanted to see Hannah Montana the movie but since we went with two guy friends of ours they didn't want to and they ended up making us go see The Knowing instead. Since it was the last showing and we had to be convinced to see this movie, we missed the first few minutes and I already knew it was going to be a little creepy but didn't really care to hear about the trailers and what not so didn't know what was going on beforehand. I knew that this movie starred Nicolas Cage and I personally am not his biggest fan. I feel like he plays the same roles over and over and always knows too much in the roles he plays, than he should. Anyway so this movie had a good idea and wasn't as creepy as I thought but it still was creepy for me, a girl that does not like watching scary movies at all. The special effects and features on this movie was well worth watching it. But I feel like the trailer showed potentially too much and the directions, producers and actors all acted up the movie. It was decent but I definitely wouldn't go see this again and wouldn't have saw it in the first place had I not been forced to.
