Nicolas Cage makes a lot of movies where he looks very concerned all the time. In Knowing he’s very concerned because his son has come across a series of numbers that accurately predict major disasters. It’s a leap of faith how this all comes together but it’s believable enough. What to do about it or how this affects anything are kind of lightly touched on but ultimately there doesn’t seem to be a whole lot of rhyme or reason to what’s going on here. The ending tries to tie it all together but even that’s kind of a stretch and just seems like an easy way out.
Overall there is not much to this movie. It’s not a bad way to pass some time but don’t go looking for anything too meaningful here.
