GH w/ CHELIPS - Knowing

We planned a movie night with the rest earlier that week, pero marami ang hindi pwede. So instead of skipping it, Pilep, Che, and I decided to go through. We decided to watch Knowing (starring Nicolas Cage) in Green Hills.

Grabe, disappointing yung Knowing. Shit. I won't even write a proper review for it. Damn. Haha.

Basta it started out good. Great premise, but it became worse as the movie went on, and eventually ended up disappointing. Ang ganda ng simula eh.. the movie started 50 years in the past where students were asked to draw pictures of what they imagine the future will be. Then these pictures will be buried inside a time capsule, and will be unearthed after 50 years. One creepy girl student, who suggested the time capsule idea, wrote creepy random numbers instead of pictures. Just a whole page of paper full of numbers. Since time was up for the activity, the teacher took her paper, never letting her finish the seemingly random numbers. That same day, the girl went missing. Eventually, they found her inside a dark basement, her fingers bloodied for scratching the remaining numbers ON A WALL! Then she's asking her teachers to make 'them stop whispering'!

Creepy diba!?

Then 50 years later, the time capsule was unearthed by the school as was scheduled for the 50th school anniversary. And obviously, Nicolas Cage needs to have something to do with it right?! In this case, his son gets the creepy girl's paper. Eventually, Cage gets hold of the paper--and because of his SUPREME IQ (and because he's goddamn Nicolas Cage goddammit), he figured out that those numbers refer to catastrophes for the last 50 years: the date, the number of casualties, and the exact place where it will happen. He traced everything in perfect sequence, but there's something more disturbing: there are three more catastrophes left...

Exciting diba!? Well, you're just gonna slap yourself after the movie is over. The movie felt just like a whole wild goose chase! And it fails at trying to mix religion with science--its stupid. The movie ended up contradicting itself. Haha!

And of course I won't spoil anything. The whole premise was so engaging that you'll want to watch it para malaman kung ano ang mangyayari! Hahaha! Since nagsayang kami ng money sa movie na ito, kayo rin dapat!! Hahahaha! ;p

After dissing ourselves for actually watching the movie, we pampered ourselves nalang by eating at Sizzling Pepper Steak. It was my first time trying the food there, masarap din pala! :)

After more kwentuhan, and more 'Knowing' bashing, we decided to call it a night. I gave CHELIPS a ride home (wooohooo, CHELIPS points! hahaha!), before going home myself. :)
