Dark City comes out top here easily. The crow bored me, while knowing was watchable it was to commercial orientate and will be forgotten soon. Dark City will still have it fans for many years.

I’d have to agree that Knowing isn’t (by a long way) one of the great films. I only went to see it because I happened across them shooting a scene (outside the Subway station) one Sunday afternoon during a visit to Melbourne. It really is like they ran out of ideas half way through the film. It started promisingly but really fell in a hole after that. Maybe next time Alex?

I just saw Knowing, even after listening to your review. Had to do it cuz I`m a Proyas fan. And I concur; it was awful. Really painful viewing. Even if Cage wasnt in it, it would not have been salvageable.

Am I the only one here who DOESN’T like NIN? Maybe that’s why I’m right all the time with my reviews.

I like Nine Inch Nails and The Crow but I don’t like Simon.

For the record I also like Nine Inch Nails. I just hate “The Crow.”

Don’t imagine! You’ll hurt your head. If you must, picture “What the BLEEP Do We Know” with aliens dressed like Kiefer Sutherland in The Lost Boys.

Thanks for the Dark City review! That was one of my favourite films of the era. I really need to see it again. And Simon was correct, that the Matrix took a lot from this film, but is far superior.
With the Knowing, Proyas should have pulled an Aronofsky and personally called Cage to beg him not star in this film. I havent yet seen it but I can imagine.

See teenage Robin backs up my point. The Crow was the perfect comic book film for the girls. It was the best tool for teenage boys at the time to use to pick up girls, and the boys would still like it too.

just watched ‘dark city’ for the first time two weeks ago and was actually impressed with its scifi scope and the fact that they got a lot of complicated concepts across rather simply. me like. as for ‘knowing’, looks like something id rather not know about. (grin)
ps. the best thing about the first ‘crow’ was the soundtrack. or at least thats what teenaged robin thought.

I really like the Knowing. I agree that Nick Cage is a bad actor but I really think it was really fun and full of great action. Honestly I am not even sure if I understand your reviews. You guys were making no sense.

I love Goth kids and The Crow. F#ck You Simon! Nine Inch Nails was once cool.
