lnowThe movie is set to be released in March, and it comes down to a seemingly unrelated series of events that has a small girl writing down a page full of random numbers that is set to become the almanac of major disasters for fifty years till the present. Set in a school where as part of a dedication ceremony for a new elementary school building, children are told to come up with their own messages that would be contained in a time-capsule that was to be buried on the grounds. Fifty years later the time capsule is found and opened by a new generation of students form the same school who find a page filled with a random series of numbers. That piece of paper somehow gets into the hands of a professor who tries to decipher the code only to find it as an accurate list of some of humanity’s most deadly catastrophes along with exact figures of the death toll, the only problem, three are still to come true and he tries to prevent them from happening, one of which would be destruction on a global scale.
One of the most anticipated movies for this year, it hails with Nicolas Cage and as with all his films is expected to be a hit. The story comes in the line of Nostradamus who predicts the future and logs them down, but in this case, a little girl who knows not what she did, wrote the letter and placed it in a time capsule for somebody in the present to decipher. He tries to notify the authorities but fails to get attention and is set to make the ultimate sacrifice for the chain of events documented on the piece of paper from becoming reality.
