After The Book of Eli, here comes another movie that will try to put a stop to Avatar’s reign at the box office.
Legion is a movie involving an angel. Not exactly a “City of Angels” kind of movie but more like of the “Constantine” variety. Yes, this will be action-packed and features a fallen angel.
Paul Bettany stars as the fallen angel Michael who leads a rat pack of strangers trying to protect a woman who might be the next Mary (Mother of Christ) from a horde of angels trying to wipe-out mankind.
Bettany has an unforgettable performance as Silas in The Da Vince Code so this movie will surely be an entertaining one as well.
Legion is directed and written by Scott Stewart and Peter Schink and will open on cinemas on January 22, 2010.
SYNOPSIS (from Wikipedia):
After God loses faith in humanity, the archangel Michael (Paul Bettany), who has become a fallen angel, is the only one standing between mankind and Armageddon. This time using angels to execute the Last Judgment, God’s wrath descends on Earth to exterminate the world’s population. In a desperate, last-chance gambit, Michael leads a group of strangers to a small New Mexico diner to protect a young waitress (Adrianne Palicki) who may be pregnant with Christ in his second coming.

Hey Ark, it’s been a while since I’ve been to your blog. Just had been kinda busy with something.
I saw your comment at my blog and realized that I’ve missed reading your posts.
So legion is showing tomorrow eh? This is one movie genre I love to watch. I love movies about angels, vampires, some particular ghosts, and tv shows like Ghost Whisperer, Smallville, Supernatural, Lost, Fallen, Vampire Diaries, etc. In my blog, I even express my thoughts once in a while about some movies like Eclipse and all of Stephenie’s Twilight series books.
Paul Bettany is one good actor. I remember him playing the tennis player role in Wimbledon, a role in First Knight and a lot of other great movies. The last movies I watched were 2012 and New Moon. Legion would be the best next movie to watch (and on a weekend too).

Most of the reviews and comments for the movie were negative. They find it too boring.

I agree with you. Constantine brings more fire power with all the special effects and star power with Keanu Reeves.
