    Not me. There were plenty of malfunctioning machines in '89. At least with the Nintendo though you could just blow into the game cartridge. :p

    How can this movie be good? It's basically Nicolas Cage in another puzzle solving movie... "THE NUMBERS, THEY MEAN SOMETHING I KNOW IT".

    Roger Ebert gave Knowing 4 stars, referring to the film as a meditation on the idea of determinism and the nature of the universe. Of course if you don't think the film is that deep, then it's easy to say that it's a pile of crap. The trailers sure made it seem like a mishmashed derivative mess.

    If you think this is the best movie in years then I'm wondering WTF you've been watching the last couple of years. Gigli?

    You are a joke. I love the National Treasure movies, they are very enjoyable. This however, was absolute crap. It was anticlimactic and you found out and hour into the movie. After that it was downhill full of nonsense and ridiculousness

    I would have been more intrigued if they called it PWN1NG.

    BEST movie in years? The Dark Knight, The Wrestler and The Slumdog Millionaire might disagree slightly. Just a tad.

    What the hell is going on here? I really want to see this movie since I'm a big Scifi geek. But RottenTomato is giving it a really bad score and I no longer trusting Ebert.

    I think it's a type of movies that there are part that is amazing and with a good story line and you have part where it's become totally stupid. I guessed it's a movie that you love it and hate it. Just like Taken.
