Diary of a Schizophrenic

A madman's diary.

Tuesday, January 26, 2010

Caught this over the weekend. I like this one. The ideas are fresh - God intending to kill the whole world, a fallen angel protects the second coming of Christ. Although the execution is not that interesting - sort of "Night of The Living Dead" (they're holed up in an isolated gas station) meets "Terminator 2" (protecting some saviour of the future) but it hits the right spot for me.

Paul Bettany gives a stellar performance, even if his Michael cuts an improbable character. And he fight with guns, not flaming swords (except for the near end). Best bits are the trumpets sounding when Gabriel is unleashed, and the nice old demonic lady.

2 thumbs up. Fun breezy entertainment that reaffirms my faith in Jehovah. 8 out of 10.
