‘Knowing’ The No. 1 DVD & Blu-ray in the US
A plane crash occurs as predicted in 'Knowing'
Nicolas Cage’s sci-fi thriller Knowing has snared the No.1 spot in both DVD sales and rentals in the US.
The Summit Entertainment release also took the No.1 spot as the top selling Blu-ray disc of the week, with Push at No.2
Knowing follows college professor John Koestler (Nicolas Cage) who becomes the recipient of a mysterious numbered prophecy list that seems to predict future disasters and just might also be predicting the end of the world.
The Alex Proyas directed sci-fi film has now taken more than $100M above its $50M budget and has sold upwards of 6 million DVD’s.
Knowing was received poorly by critics (currently sports a 32% rating on Rotten Tomatoes) and was hammered by many reviewers. I however thought that despite some obvious plot holes the film was highly enjoyable and contrary to most critics I also enjoyed the ’surprise’ ending. My recommendation is to ignore the poor reviews and make up your own mind by checking it out for yourself.
Grab Knowing on DVD from Amazon.
