I liked the ending of the movie a lot. Hadn't the patience to see it all, but I got the answers most questions. Although they are not answered directly they are implied. Honestly I do not like the implications, but this is what it says. Part I: Why did the center was founded Answer: The scrolls have two qualities: 1. give details about the apocalipse 2. gives a way to either survive, either control some powerful and dark forces So the Center was created as to people to get the scrolls and presumably control the situation when apocalipse comes Part2: What makes Jarod's blood so special? Well the answer stands in the inscription "Tengo Arcana Dei" meaning I have God's secret. There are two possibilities: 1. Reference to the stupid Dan Brown book (holy blood...) 2. Jarod may be an attempt to duplicate Adam's original DNA (yes the biblical Adam) Part3: who are the parents of Jarod and Miss Parker? Answer: They where both conceived in a test tube using Dna material from unknown sources. Mis Parker was probably as all Miss Parkers (including Catherine) a clone of the little girl. Jarod was supposed to be a clone for one of the two possibilities in the previous answer. Part4: What where in the scrolls? I presume a form of magic that dates back to the origin of mankind. So the power to control all dark forces (The demon Asmodeus and the serpent appear to testify to that).I am sorry the series turned out at the end to be a New Age crap film, but at least they went with style.
... View MoreI've been a fan of the show since day one and was very sad that the show ended. More than that I am sad that that this movie was the last one. The truth will never be revealed. This movie was great. It gives a new direction to the whole story. I really liked the way the movie answers all the questions that were brought up in the previous movie (The Pretender 2001) and yet brings even more question. I mean, this movie really makes you wonder. But I'm not planning to spoil it. One of the better things about this movie is the way Miss Parker and Jarod are working together. They are a great team! I love Miss Parker's character and Andrea Parker (Miss Parker) is a great actress. I wish there were more episodes to the show or more movies. If you like The Pretender (the series) and The Pretender 2001 you will LOVE this movie!
... View MoreIn my opinion, this movie is the most frustrating I have ever seen! lol Mainly because this Ocee IS the woman to kill... Fortunately, the job is done, otherwise, I would have done so with pleasure!! I love the mystic side of the movie, it gives a new life to the show. This intimate atmosphere allows us to understand that Jarod and Parker are definitely soul mates... But "why"? "Why" is THE word not to forget, why don't we have a third movie? Why did Ocee exist? Why does "Tea" exist??? Why can't they be together, fighting for the Truth (Mulder & Scully : I love you too!), why can't they love each other without being interrupted, threatened or something else??? This movie was just a part of a dream, it left the door open, I think that's why so many people decided to write fanfictions : frustration... Because of this ending -which is not a TRUE ending actually- and because of this OBVIOUS love which exists between these two Angels...Rest in peace The Pretender, but not for too long hopefully... :P
... View MoreIsland of the haunted was quite good even though I'm not sure I like the fact that the super natural takes a larger and larger part of the story. I doubt that any fans of The Pretender will be disappointed with this movie.The thing that really bugs me is that few of the original questions was answered. Sure, we got to learn a lot more but most of the new knowledge was from questions made in this movie. Another thing that is annoying is that I now get the feeling that they will never tell us the background and what is really going on. It's turning into the same kind of series as the X-files. Episode after episode with small hints and a developing plot but no end in sight, ever!Since the series are now only being produced in the form of movies, the directors should think about closing it. Decide what they want to tell and make one or more movies and tell the story. I don't think they will ever do that though, instead they will just try to milk The Pretender for $ after $ for as long as possible. When they can't make more money from it they will put it to rest, without giving us an end..But as I said early on, this picture is quite good if you don't mind being left off with more questions than answers.
