Knowing Review

Knowing is a sci-fi thriller,directed by Alex Proyas,starring Nicolas Cage and Rose Byrne.While the premise isn’t so original,it’s interesting.The movie takes some time to gear up but after some point drops the ball.I can’t say that I’m irritated by the development of the story,but I can’t say that I like it.Maybe I expected something different.Anyway,I think that the main flaw of the movie is obviously the screenplay.
The performances are decent.Alex Proyas is a skilled director,something that’s evident from his previous work and that’s also evident in Knowing.There are some really intense and visually impressive scenes (the visual effects team and the director of photography have done very good work).
Knowing,while it’s a decent movie,it seems that there was potential,which was wasted.

'National Treasure: Book of Secrets' Review


Back in late 2004, i saw National Treasure.I thought that it was an entertaining, enjoyable movie, with all these history-related clues and riddles connected in a successful way.In the 2007 sequel, the makers of the first movie try to follow the same formula.In,their effort they don't fail but they also don't succeed .
The story of the film, which centers around the effort of Ben Gates (Nicolas Cage) to clear his great-great grandfather's name, is a significant drawback .It is one of the reasons for which the film is not as entertaining as the first one.The film gears up from the scene in the Library of Congress until the scene in the cave, which is, as mentioned in some reviews,a n impressive and a well directed one.There are some funny moments,for the majority of which Riley Poole (Justin Bartha) is responsible.As for the perfomances, Ed Harris is adequate as the villain, but his character's motives, which are revealed towards the end of the film,are silly.Helen Mirren's perfomance,as Ben Gates' mother, is not noteworthy.
