Knowing (2009) 8/10

Starring : Nicolas Cage, Chandler Canterbury, Rose Byrne
Director : Alex Proyas
Running Time : 122 mins

When his son Caleb (Canterbury) is involved in the opening of a fifty year old time capsule at his school, Professor Jonathan Koestler (Cage) is faced with a list of numbers, corresponding to the dates of catastrophic events, their death toll, and the location of the event. As he investigates further, he discovers that some of the predicted events haven't happened yet and he believes he may be able to prevent them.

I was actually surprised that this was such an action packed and engrossing movie that keeps you gripped to the edge of your seat from beginning to end. Unfortunately it does get a little weird in the last fifteen minutes or so, but if you try not to let that spoil it then you might find this to be pretty good.
