Dotsthavesp I wanted to but couldn't!
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Shinedowness This film lost me after the old lady zombie who said "It'll all be over soon!" and the ice cream truck zombie who could fit many hot dogs in their mouth got their parts over with. After that, I got bombarded with conversation fluff, angels with oddly different accents, and a mother more uninteresting than Sarah Connor off of The Terminator. Paul Bettany's English accent made me feel sleepy, but I thought his performance was better than the other actors on this film. I had a hard time relating to and liking these characters, though. Sorry not sorry, but this will get 1 star out 5 stars for me.
dannydc-07666 Legion is a story based on humanity's last days of survival as they are getting taken over by an angry God. The whole film is a story about stealing a pregnant woman's child; as he is humanities last chance of survival.I thought this film was pretty good. Again, a lot of cool action sequences and the acting was very good between every character. I must give credit to the character of Michael who really is a shining beacon of light in this film, very well acted and a fantastic character.There are scenes in this that were incredibly funny. The old lady in the diner for example; that scene was epic. It was just something that you didn't expect from an innocent old woman, which was something i really liked; the surprises in the movie.More or less, the only downside in my opinion was the boring set designs. It was just a desert, sand and literally only 1 building throughout the entire movie. There were often a lot of long shots of a desert, which were very often repeated. It was boring to see the same design over and over again.Overall this film is good. Especially the characters, plot and the action sequences. I was just a bit disappointing with the set design as it was just 1 design throughout the whole movie (first 10 minutes excluded). But nevertheless, this is a great horror film and i really recommend it :) .
Rocketeer_Raccoon To begin I want to point out the many things wrong with this movie and then state what the movie did right.Usually the idea of the biblical apocalypse is the angels of Heaven vs. the demons of Hell but in this movie it's the angels causing the whole apocalypse. OK, but what doesn't make sense is why are the people possessed by angels acting like demons and the whole concept of flies which are usually associated with demons? I honestly thought this was a very strange idea. Also what was so special about this pregnant women and her soon to be born child? The baby certainly not the second coming of Jesus.Now what the movie did good on, the action scenes were actually quite good, sure there was some drama going on but thankfully it didn't drag on and to be honest I think the movie did fairly well for an action fantasy film.Overall, even though the story had me really lost and confused but at least the movie tried to be a fairly alright action film despite just being a typical mediocre film.
David Arnold Legion is unfortunately another of those movies that suckers you in by looking good in the trailers, but let's you down when you see the whole film. It's not an awful film by any means, but it's far from as good as the trailers make it out to be.It's not a God v Satan movie as we are usually accustomed to seeing, but a God v Humanity story instead. The basic story of it is that God has lost faith in Mankind, so he sends his angels down to wipe out the human race and bring about the Apocalypse. Archangel Michael is sent to kill a baby that is destined to be the savior of mankind but Michael disobeys God's order as he still has faith in humanity. Michael is now trying to keep the baby alive, and with a select few at a roadside diner to help him, he must stave off God's minions...including Archangel Gabriel.Like I said earlier...this isn't a bad movie but it's definitely below average and the main contribution to it being below average is that it's pretty slow & boring. There are a couple of decent scenes here and there (the granny and the ice cream man scenes to name two) but there just wasn't enough to keep your interest peaked, even when the action started as even these became rather dull.The film doesn't take that long to get going, and the story does actually build up quite nicely to begin with, but it doesn't take long to stall either and come to a bit of a halt. Even the fight between Gabriel and Michael was a bit of a damp squib.Also, I'm not sure why some people think the reason that those who thought this movie was average was because they didn't "get it". There was nothing "to get" as we knew the story of what was going on and it's not like it was some sort of really deep, meaningful film with hidden meanings.Anyway, this wasn't a hideous movie but there is definitely much better Apocalyptic type movies out there to be enjoyed.
