Legion

By Keith Uhlich

Director: Scott Stewart. 2010.
Duration: 100mins.
Casts: Paul Bettany, Lucas Black, Tyrese Gibson


LegionOnly angels have wings. They also have some pretty mad weapons training — as shown by the gun-wielding Michael (Bettany), a fallen celestial defying God’s orders to bring forth the end-times.

When supernatural armies target the next Christ (about to be born in a desert diner subtly named “Paradise Falls”), Michael must rally a motley crew of humans to his protective cause. What follows often resembles a prime John Carpenter thriller — call it Assault on Manger 13 — until an overcaffeinated angel-ful climax significantly lowers the intelligence quotient.
