Before watching the trailer for "Knowing", the name reminded him of his last year's film "Next". Is it not enough for Uncle Cage to predict the future, so he should continue to predict the future? But when I really looked at it, I found that it was a completely different type of film. Mixing horror, science fiction and religion in one, Cage, a father who is not a hero, tries to unravel the mystery of the prophecy, especially the courage and strength of the love for children, which makes people have to think From Tom's "War of the Worlds".
Is this world accidental or inevitable, the present formed by a series of unknowable chemical reactions and mistakes, or is it dominated by fate? This question is really too heavy, and it is really going to lose the box office if it is told in a heavy film, so the screenwriter should simply leave the answer to God. The film has a strong "apocalypse" style, and may be criticized by some fans for religious ideology, but this is also a question of interpretation. For some people, it may be hoped that the light of God's angels will save the future of mankind, while To others, this is nothing but the compassion of the higher wisdom for the lower beings, but in any case, doesn't the new world that finally appears and the tree in the distance declare that this is another Eden for mankind?

The innocence and helplessness of human beings in the face of disasters seem so real, which makes us feel cold in our hearts, and the warmth is only in the father, son and mother. It can only be found in the affection between women. "You and I, always together" and the family's tight embrace at the end make us believe that no matter what disasters we face, because of the family and love linked by blood, we are not afraid. Because of love, they can sacrifice everything, although this sacrifice is so trivial, and it will never change the outcome, because this kind of love, whether it is God or other gods, should be pity for it.
At the beginning, I didn't quite understand why the trailer said Knowing is everything, but it seemed to me that Knowing is nothing. But when you think about it carefully, this sentence is full of deep meaning.
Two additional sentences:
1. When the male protagonist was with his wife and children in "2012 Doomsday", he also said something similar, "Whatever happens, we hosted together" (English is not good, I don't know if it is this)
2 , At 2 minutes and 4 seconds in the trailer, the scene and music of the sun being covered by the shadows appear, which makes people think of the
