This movie sux.

Drags. Multiple boring one on one dialogue/drivel (still not as bad as Anakin and Padmai). Dumb plot. You don't get to see the apocalypse. Why didn't the angels just burn down the building? Ending anti-climatic and it looked like they left it open for a sequel. Fat chance.

This is one of those movies that make you want to immediately go home and watch something else. I'm going to go grab my copy of Constantine after I watch Conan's last show.

Avoid. Do not rent.

    Ehhh....

    3/10 on the McConcealerLo404 scale.

    Worth the rent in my opinion. Barely.

    I started to get excited and thought the film was going places when the old lady showed up, and then the ice cream man. They didn't exploit the OH HOLY CRAP WTF?~!?!?!?!?! aspect near enough.

    If they had kept in that vein, would have been better. Otherwise, it just turned out like a weaker, slower Constantine.
    I don't read the newsssspaperssss because dey aaaallllllllll...... have ugly print.

    I had fun with it, but it definitely wasn't as good as Constantine. Plus, they never actually explain why that particular baby was so damn important. It's almost like there should have been way more back story. I did like the concept though.

    I say skip it and rent Daybreakers instead. At least that movie was kind of unique.

    Legion was one of the worst movies I have seen in 2010. Horrible plot, painful acting, and a story that makes no sense.

    My wife and I watched it last night. While we both enjoyed the movie and us being spiritual people gave us some pause to think about what was being conveyed, I thought it was going to be much better than it was.

    They definitely left it open for a sequal which who know may be better.

    I think it's worth a rental if you are into angels and demons and God etc.
