DVD Dishing: Nic, Numbers and all the rest out on DVD and Blu-Ray this week
July 7th, 2009 by Brittany Bellgardt in Film, News, Sarasota-Manatee
Knowing (2009), Summit Entertainment
Ingredients:
Nicolas Cage (John Koestler)
Rose Byrne (Diana)
Chandler Canterbury (Caleb Koestler)
Alex Proyas (Director)
Take one dug-up time capsule and a listing of some seemingly random numbers; add in John Koestler (Cage), an MIT professor/astrophysicist. Allow paranoia to rise as Koestler begins to draw a link between the number sequence and tragic disasters. Divide film into equal parts destruction-porn and spiritual sci-fi and spread message on thick.
Additional Notes: If film starts to lag, choose to view as camp, and let Nicolas “How’d it get burned?? How’d it get burned?!?” Cage take you away.
