Knowing

Nicholas Cage playing his usual quirky sort of character runs around DaVinci style trying to unravel a mystery.

When I first saw the adverts for this at the cinema, I really fancied the film. It looked like a DaVinci code type (but not like the National Treasure ones he'd already done) and a bit darker and grittier.

The advert promised a special code that could predict the future, but if you did know what was going to happen, would you really want to, and what would you do about it?

Well this was one of those films where the ads are sort of misleading... which isn't always a bad thing, and this is one of those times.

Despite me assuming I knew what to expect, the film takes twists and turns which take it down a completely different path, and turn it into something completely different.

I don't want to give too much away, because half the fun was the unexpected.
By about half way through the film you'll have an idea what's coming, but it's still edgy enough to keep you watching.

Overall 8/10

Not a masterpiece, and not the 6th sense, but holds it's own.
