Title: Knowing
Post by: Kosh on April 25, 2009, 08:17:30 pm
Overall a pretty good movie and sometimes outright creepy.

Spoiler:
Personally I think they got the idea for this from this whole mayan calendar 2012 super solar flare thing


Thoughts?

Wut? That was one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life. The only reasons I enjoyed it were A) I was stoned out of my mind and B) They played the Kid Rock National Guard video beforehand.

I saw it the other day at a budget theater, I thought it was pretty good. The plane crash was probably the best use of SFX and Dolby Surround Sound I've seen in a while, in fact it was one of the best parts of the movie IMO. The plot was a bit scratchy in places, and me and my friend couldn't help but laugh at some of the scenes where the "Believability Factor" was cranked through the roof with over-dramatic acting. Those are only near the very end though, I liked the plot :D

Kid Rock, Nascar and the National Guard. Someone call a doctor 'cause my erection definitely lasted longer than four hours.

There's another of those recruiting videos floating around out there, but it's from last summer.  It's even more awesome.

This is how you derail a thread from the first reply. :D

It wouldn't happen to be Citizen Soldier (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJRthpxDM10), would it?

I totally didn't mean to, either. I was just so horrified that anyone would give that movie a rating of anything above "What the **** was that ****?" Seriously, when it was over, everyone in the theater laughed.

I have to disagree. Kid Rock's prowess as a lyricist is simply unsurpassed. Exhibit A:
