The Prophecy: Forsaken (2005 Video)
2/10
The power struggle between angels continues. Those who despise humanity want the Lexicon rumored to have the name of the Antichrist who will bring about the end of the world.

It was a very disappointing film. I was curious to see how the story would play out after Uprising. Unfortunately it was tired and predictable with some VERY cheesy one liners. This movie felt more like an after thought instead of a well fleshed out follow up to Uprising. The war between angels doesn't seem to have progressed at all from the first film and I find that annoying and quite frankly weak writing. Where Uprising had some good back and forth between characters and some really creepy and gross moments, Forsaken has none. Except for the opening sequence with John Light, which would make any parent's skin crawl. In fact, the only bright spot is John Light's performance. He makes the most of every moment on screen and elevates every scene he is in. Maybe if he had been in every scene in the film I would have enjoyed it more, as it is I feel his performance was wasted on this movie. On the upside I am now a John Light fan and want to see more of HIS work.
