foutainoflife I enjoyed this. While it is about Heaven, Hell, angels and souls, this really doesn't push the viewer to choose a theological position about the subject. However, I am a Christian, therefore I am going to give my opinion from that standing.I loved the idea that angels could be jealous of how much God loves us. The idea that this jealousy could cause friction between the souls of mankind and angels really does have the potential to be scary. We know God loves us and that the angels are the Lord's servants but Lucifer became so jealous of God that he, God's most beloved angel, ended up being cast out of Heaven. We know that angels have the ability to harbor that sort of emotion so, what if those feeling were directed towards us. It really is a great concept. This is a movie that I would suggest to a friend. If you don't have a position about faith, don't let that stop you from checking this out. You can simply watch it for what it is and still find that it is a good movie.

Watchin Movies I remember watching The Prophecy in the theatre 20+ years ago. I think the IMDB overall average of 6 out of 10 is fairly accurate for most people, though I rated this an 8 because it brings back fond memories of the mid-1990's. I still have trouble seeing Christopher Walken as an Arch-Angel, but this film would also not be watchable if he was not in it.

Amityville15 The angel Gabriel comes to earth wanting to take a soul to end the ongoing war in heaven, however when confronting the person he wants he finds out that he has transferred the soul into a little girl, with this information he goes and looks for her, however a Police Officer and a teacher are protecting her and refuse to let Gabriel take her.This film starred: Christopher Walken, Elias Koteas & Virginia MadsenThe Prophecy was released in 1995 and is an OK film, I was expecting more however it is a film I hate and I could watch it again, I have the 3 films, and I am yet to see 2 & 3, however I don't have two 2005 spin off films because they are a waste of time and money. Recommended because although I was let down this is still an interesting film.***/***** Could be worse.

phatmann8 This was like one of those movies that you see when randomly flicking through the channels looking for something to watch then find yourself getting sucked in by the story. Despite being made in the mid-90s it felt like an 80s movie in terms of style and setting - reminded me of Children of the Corn or The Lost Boys in terms of where it was set. The cast was pretty decent with the likes of Walken, Mortensen, Stoltz, Koteas, Goldberg and Madsen all doing a good job, but not amazing, and overall it was more enjoyable than I expected. In terms of an overall rating I would say about a 7.5 but as halves aren't available on here I've marked it as 7/10.
