Gooooood Movie :)

Rating: Null/10 (28 April 2008)

I loved the movie! In fact, I watched it three times in 24 hours, because they had reruns playing on TV... and i finished exams a few days ago. I genuinely thought that every actor was awesome in their role..
One thing I didn't quite understand was whether Isabel was actually used by Balthazar/Mammon/Gabriel. I get that she didn't willingly kill herself, and that they had urged her into doing it.. but why? In that scene where Balthazar's head gets blown off, he says their main target was Angela.. so does that mean they 'killed' Isabel in order to lure Angela over? If they needed the help of a mortal/psychic woman, why didn't they just use Isabel? hmm.. if someone can answer this it would REALLY make me happy.. thank you!
Oh! I do agree that Keanu Reeves is a bit expressionless, but I think that's the essence to his acting style. I like it! And I found his acting in this movie probably the best I've seen out of all other movies he's starred in.
But yes! If someone can provide a possible interpretation of Isabel's unwilling involvement with the conspiracy, it would be much appreciated!
