Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Highly Overrated But Still Good

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

it was good i think it could have been better in some areas like a little more with the book it was based off of but other then that i like it it was pretty accurate angels were able to reproduce but were forbidden to do so at one point cant really remember why which makes me wanna do some boring reading but i do know there's no where does it says he took away there ability to do so it might sound it it says that but if that were true then other parts of the scripts wouldn't make even more sense then they already do. when it comes to religious things like this nothing is gonna be 100 percent accurate and there is many reasons why that is but too many for me to wanna list.

As a lover of angels myself, I was quite disappointed and/or saddened to figure out that a, how should I put this, the negligence of research and lack of knowledge in this particular field. For example, in Biblical accounts it is clearly stated that God had stricken ALL angelic creatures from being able to reproduce or have such sexual organs. I would LOVE an explanation on how the protagonist of this show was able to fraternize and continue to have a history of human relationships. I don't see how such a big oversight could have happened when movies such as "Dogma", a well-known film, clearly pointed out that angels no longer have such organs, secondly, the sword fighting leaves a lot to be desired.

I found the Fallen books almost immediately after they came out in 2004/2005 and fell in love with them immediately. The story has everything anyone can ask for and more. Aaron is a very believable character. He's not the perfect messiah that everyone expects. He has his faults but that's what makes him so perfect for his role of redeemer of the fallen angels. Gabriel, his Labrador retriever, is one of the most dynamic personalities I've ever seen and I am so glad this was shown well in the movie.My only complaint is, of course, Verchiel. It seems like his entire character got changed. Never mind the completely unnecessary gender change. I thought the actress was weak and completely unfamiliar with the character she was portraying. Verchiel was an excellent villain the books. The movie version was a travesty. The character's untimely death is also baffling. I don't know what they're going to do for the other 4 hours without the main villain who lasted throughout all 4 books of the series.Aside from that I thought it was amazing. I can't wait for next summer and I really hope ABC Family decides to make this a regular series. I'd especially love to see more books.

Fallen Angels are Good?!?Apparently so. Or they could be. This movie blends mythology and modern day drama into a whirlwind of prophesy fulfillment. "Fallen" brings together faith in the "Creator," explanations as to Angel's walking among humans, and that some Celestial Beings can be as crazy as we are. Hard luck befalls a teen and getting his crush to notice him does little to soften the blow. Magic and destiny plaque the mind of the viewers as they begin to wonder if the Angelic saints, that they know so much about, should really be considered saints at all.While the movie is a straight to TV movie, it did surprise me in being mythologically accurate and fairly well acted. Not an all-star cast to be sure, but all with obvious talent that I hope to see grow in many future films. This feature combines action, and family/school drama to tell a story that everyone has a destiny; and everyone is unique.
