Pure Tripe

Rating: 4/10 (17 August 2005)

Not only can Keanu Reeves NOT ACT, but he has to demean himself with a trite and badly written script. Rachel Weisz was the only redeeming quality that the movie had to offer.This movie had to have been one of the worst "good vs. evil" genres ever written. It started off with a bang and soon whimpered out. At first the plot line seemed to take off, but then it was all so predictable. The special effect was one of the only reasons I kept watching and didn't turn off the movie mid-stream.. I could not get over the "cross-shaped" automatic weapon and the pitiful attempt at a "Van Helsing" type action sequence. I was really put off when the angel Gabriel appeared as a woman bound in rags to hide her bosoms. This is a movie destined to become a shelf classic.
