Legion (2010)


God has lost faith in Mankind and sends his legion of angels to kill all. Human survival seems to depend on an Archangel named Michael (Paul Bettany) and the unborn baby of a diner waitress named Charlie (Adrianne Palicki who you might have seen in "Friday Night Lights" on T.V.).

When God commands the angels to take out mankind, the archangel Michael goes against God and decides to try to protect Charlie's baby who seems to be the savior of Mankind. Charlie works at a diner in the middle of nowhere. Some patrons begin to show up as the diner opens and a couple are stranded because of car trouble. They begin to sense that something is wrong when an old woman takes a bite out of someone and climbs the wall and ceiling. Possessed people begin to show up to try to kill the people in the diner.

The angels themselves begin to show up including one of the most famous Archangels, Gabriel. Michael and Gabriel hash it out and you can guess the outcome, it's a movie remember?

Crap, Crappy, Crappee', lots of blood,guts, guns and bullets. Bad script, not great acting in spite of the famous cast of Paul Bettany, Adrienne Palicki, Tyrese, Kate Walsh, Jon Tenney and Dennis Quaid just to name a few. Spotty, boring plot. Plus I don't like the idea that God would give up on Mankind. One half of the stars are for the really cool tattoos that Paul Bettany was sportin'!

Rated R. 100 Minutes. I give this movie ONE AND ONE HALF STARS.
