AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

morilibus I sat glued to the screen, riveted, yawning, yet keeping an attentive eye. I waited for the next awful special effect, or the next ridiculously clichéd plot item to show up full force, so I could learn how not to make a movie.It seems when they set out to make this movie, the crew watched every single other action/science-fiction/shoot-em-up/good vs. evil movie ever made, and saw cool things and said: "Hey, we can do that." For example, the only car parked within a mile on what seems like a one way road with a shoulder not meant for parking, is the one car the protagonist, an attractive brunette born of bile, is thrown on to. The car blows to pieces before she even lands on it. The special effects were quite obviously my biggest beef with this movie. But what really put it in my bad books was the implausibility, and lack of reason for so many elements! For example, the antagonist, a flying demon with the ability to inflict harm in bizarre ways, happens upon a lone army truck transporting an important VIP. Nameless security guys with guns get out of the truck, you know they are already dead. Then the guy protecting the VIP says "Under no circumstances do you leave this truck, do you understand me?" He gets out to find the beast that killed his 3 buddies, he gets whacked in an almost comically cliché fashion. Then for no apparent reason, defying logic, convention, and common sense, the dumb ass VIP GETS OUT OF THE TRUCK!!! A lot of what happened along the course of the movie didn't make sense. Transparent acting distanced me from the movie, as well as bad camera-work, and things that just make you go: "Wow, that's incredibly cheesy." Shiri Appleby saved the movie from a 1, because she gave the movie the one element that always makes viewers enjoy the experience, sex appeal.

xredgarnetx This obvious pilot for an unproduced TV series features young Canadian actress Shiri Appleby as an amnesiac with some pretty incredible powers that must be put to use when a man-turned-flying demon is let loose on the world. The CGI is par for a TV job, and Appleby is OK as an amnesiac but hard to swallow as a superheroine. Familiar TV face Richard Burgi is along for the ride as Appleby's mentor, but he can do nothing to elevate this dreck above the mediocre level. We see way too much of the cartoonish flying demon right from the start, a bad sign. Also, the scenes where Burgi is training Appleby for battle are actually laughable. They are a bad copy of similar scenes in several other movies, most notably REMO WILLIAMS.

dee_copeland My husband and I both enjoyed the movie and the premise of it. It was a great depiction of the battle between good and evil with a surprising twist. The characters were both well written and well played. The plot and character development of the Lilith and Shaw to make you care about both of the main characters.Due to the way it was wrapped up at the end it would make a great TV series. Be great if a series could be done with the same main characters, but even if recasting had to be done. I think that fans of the movie would be drawn to watch and support a regular show if it was properly done, and presented in the true spirit of the movie.We would love to see a series based on this movie

wentsomeplace I really enjoyed this movie. I caught it last Saturday on sci fi and wasn't expecting something like this -- it actually had a message (spiritual renewal). Even though it was obviously done on a small budget, I thought the graphics for the demon were good and hold up well against other sci fi channel shows.It's a fun update on a biblical story (I wasn't really familiar with Lilith before), and I particularly liked seeing Shiri Appleby as a tough character showing a lot of strength, both mental and physical. I liked that this small woman has to save the world.And Richard Burgi is one handsome man. These two had nice chemistry as they have to work together. I thought Burgi played the stoic, tough guy well and added real dimension to the role.The movie felt like it was attempting to be a comic book come to life (is it based on one?), and compared to terrible movies like Daredevil, I think pulled it off nicely. All in all, I had a good time.Sarah
