It wasn't a bad flick. The angel Gabriel was portrayed as an androgenous being that -- well, I won't ruin it.

Worth a viewing, at any rate.

Yes, mam, I saw it too. I like action flicks, saw the previews, and went alone. (My wife refused to go.)

So, I was disappointed at the lack of enough action, and I thought the Christian themes were set in such a fantasy as to establish only a flimsy spiderweb of a distortion of "things Christian".

I just read a few of the reviews, and they are all different, and all overdone, according to each reviewer's take.

I'm not a student of the Bible, but isn't Gabriel the one who blows the horn and has a position at the gates of Heaven? (OK, duh! Let me know.)

The Gabriel in the movie was nothing like that.
