What happens when one of us misplaces a phone and the other can't stop laughing about it? It sets the perfect stage for a lively discussion on the 2009 Nicolas Cage film, "Knowing." One host is captivated by the disaster sequences, while the other can’t get past Nicolas Cage's unlikeable character. We dissect the thematic elements, character arcs, and question the emotional depth of the film, keeping the conversation engaging and humorous throughout.
Travel back to 1959 with us as we unravel the mystery of Lucinda's ominous numbers in a time capsule, which resurface in 2009. We follow Caleb and his astrophysicist father John's journey to decode these numbers, analyzing foreshadowing elements, character development, and the film’s narrative choices. From Caleb's unexamined intelligence to his father's puzzling protective nature, we critically and comically examine the film's execution and storytelling inconsistencies.
We also cover dramatic and suspenseful scenes like a traumatic plane crash aftermath and a misunderstood subway station attack, discussing the film’s balance between realism and spectacle. We even touch on foreign film reviews, reality TV, and tease our next movie pick, the 1994 comedy “My Father the Hero.” Join us for a blend of critical insight, humor, and a call to support the show with your likes, comments, and subscriptions.
