If you know anything about the Bible, this series will only be annoying for the lack of integrity. Someone actually wrote this as a series made for TV? It's obvious the author researched things, but some how got the details all messed up.The acting was good any how....I most certainly would 'not' spend any amount of money to watch this series.

I enjoyed watching this miniseries when it first aired and I have come back to it occasionally since then. The real triumph here is the characters and the acting and that is why I continue to enjoy it.The plot is creative but there are some holes in it, and there is a bit too much teenage angst for my taste and I'll be blunt and say in general I could have done without the dog who the main characters can understand, he serves very little purpose most of the time. The fighting is cool, but at the same time is a bit too star wars meets kung fu at times.The real triumph here is the acting. The main character has the right amount of determination, drive, and youthful uncertainty and angst about his quest(think Luke in the original Star Wars trilogy rather than Anakin in the new). The supporting characters, good and bad, all have a lot of heart, depth, and personality to them. How much of that is the writing and how much the acting is hard to tell but I personally think the quality of the actors they got is what really elevates this series. Particularly worth mentioning is that Bryan Cranston is superb as Lucifer(particularly his voice). He hits the charm, manipulation, and pride of the character perfectly.If you like shows dealing with questions of good vs evil, humanity, salvation, damnation, angels and demons, and other such metaphysical discussions, this is well worth checking out. The plot may have its problems but the acting here is well worth it.

I loved this movie... haven't read the books even though I meant to.having read the above review I will buy them today just to get the details he was talking about.The script could be better but the acting is great also the special effects were good... I liked the special effects but there was something wrong... (couldn't put my finger on it) but seemed sometimes a bit over the top...anyway all I really wanted to say is that its a good movie and definitely worth watching.So check it out and make your own opinion...

The story is simple and rather easy for one to follow. There are a couple plot holes those but nothing to damaging. I have not read the books that the series is based upon but I have skimmed through them. The movie is not 100% true to the book and it leaves a lot out that would help the watcher a lot. I personally believe it would of been a lot better with a 5th installment digging deeper into each persons past instead of leaving it more of a mystery. But hey what movie is 100% true to the book it comes from ( I could name many worse ) so all and all they did an all right job. If you like angel movies then you will enjoy this flick. But if you like movies like Twilight where its a full on vampire suck fest then this is not a movie for you. This movie has a plot vs the usual teenage melodrama where its all about a girl falling in love with the wrong guy. Well that's my 2 cents on it. I hope you check this movie out I do not think you will be sorry.
