Knowing (2009) (Blu Ray) - 6/10

For some reason Knowing didn't do it for me in theatres and once again looking great on Blu Ray, it didn't make any lasting impact other than the fact that I slowly am starting to hate Nic Cage. Alex Proyas has done some decent work with movie like Dark City but with this he's trying to take on the end of the world, aliens, and a set of numbers that predict all the major global disasters but he never gives us characters who we care if they live or die. The bad acting overpowers any of the dramatic action scenes and we're constantly being preached to by Cage's character as to what he "thinks" is going on, only to basically get creeped out and never have everything fall together until it's too late. This movie has an interesting concept and the BR audio and video are excellent but there is just too much fake CGI and laughably bad moments to take it seriously. Too bad..
