Tetrady not as good as all the hype

ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

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.

karinrjeffrey This isn't the great art, but there are guilty pleasures aplenty in this ambitious take on the rebel angels theme. Who hasn't wondered if God has just given up on humanity? Fortunately, humanity has Paul Bettany as rebel angel Michael and he is not given up on humanity, but is burning with glorious purpose. In this movie it's convincing some folks in a run-down diner that all he movie has consistently good performances by all the cast. Fun ride.

one-nine-eighty This film surprised me, I wasn't expecting to enjoy it as much as I did. I can see a lot of negative reviews on here but they must be by people who had high hopes or people who went to the cinema to watch this - for me I found this on a satellite channel one cold night. I had no expectations and the only thing I hoped was that I wasn't wasting my night. God is annoyed with humans, he's lost faith in us and thinks it'll be better to wipe us out. God unleashes a horde or evil angels to reap the souls of Earth as punishment, it's up to Paul Bettany as Archangel Michael and a handful of patrons at a desert highway diner to save the world. Michael was part of the original 'apocalypse' plan but has rebelled against God in favour of fighting for humankind and now finds himself amongst them trying to protect amongst others, a pregnant mother carrying a child he believes will be the saviour of man kind in the future. As Michael defeats wave after wave of evil angels even more darker and twisted angels are sent. Watching this film felt like playing a computer game, it felt like each wave of evil got stronger and I was waiting for the lead up to the final boss. The acting was average, the script wasn't annoying, the visuals were embracing enough. This is plain and simple a comic book version of a war between good and bad. In that guise Bettany delivers with his broody approach while Dennis Quid manage to provide occasional light relief. Maybe I enjoyed this as I didn't pay to watch it and had no expectations. Ignore other negative reviews and just give this film a try, it's not awful and there are worse ways to spend 100mins of your life.

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.
