La profezia prima della fine

This fifth film in the Prphecy series picks up the tale of the secret battles between hell,heaven,and earth caught between them. Allison (kahri Wuhrer) now possesses the Lexicon. An ancient text that can reveal when the Antichrist will appear. But renegade angels are on the hunt for the book. Her only hope may be a mysterious assassin named Dylan (Jason Scott Lee) Alright you guys get the gist of the story well here is what I thought personally I lost interest in this series after the second film....So...some of you may disagree with me...I felt this film was a bit slow and boring the acting was decent enough although I thought that Kahri Wuhrer's character could have been better written but the story fell flat in many spots...I thought that they didn't give you enough details to make this film interesting...one minute of back story at the beginning just wasn't enough to delve me into this story.. Although I did find the brief explanation on the different ranking of Angels interesting....Tony Todd delivers an excellent performance as an evil Angel bent on stopping Armagedon so that the Angels can be gods favorites. I give this film a sad 2 buckets of gore for the boring story the only thing that justifies this film is its decent acting

They were made back to back and are basically one story. Just told in two parts. One of the things I like about the post Christopher Walkin Prophecy movies is that they are not a replica of every other Stephen King inspired "Devil in our back yard" movies. I'm not saying that is bad. Its just over done. The antichrist is always in a medium sized American suburb with nice normal middle class parents. Its nice to see a more global perspective. Not everything happens in middle class America. The underlying question of these movies is whether there can be such a thing as blind faith. The devil puts it best by saying you always have to ask why. The movie is cool. It is spooky in a way. But it will not scare you. It isn't trying to. So if you are looking fora horror film this is not for you. I would still suggest you see it, just to realize that the subject of revelations isn't just there to scare us. It can inspire us too.

"The Prophecy: Forsaken" is a step down from "Uprising". The problem is that the movie is just too short. There's no reason for this movie to be 75 minutes. It had some good ideas and scenes but it didn't go anywhere. Kari Wuhrer once again plays Allison. She still has to stop renegade angels from getting the "The Lexicon". This book contains the access to destroy the earth. Jason Scott Lee and Tony Todd play characters who try to stop her.

Kari Wuhrer does a decent job as Allison. Jason Scott Lee was OK. Tony Todd was fun, but he goes over the top.

In the end: It could have been way better. It's worth seeing once just to complete the series.

This fifth movie in "The Prophecy" saga wasn't actually as bad as I had expected it to be, given the generic outcome of the fourth movie.

Sure, the Gabriel character is still missing from the franchise as is actor Christopher Walken, and the franchise just isn't fully the same without him in the Gabriel role.

"The Prophecy: Forsaken" was actually a good continuation of the storyline presented in the fourth movie, and it made more coherent sense and had a more thoroughly planned plot to it.

Again, as it has been throughout all the movies in "The Prophecy" franchise, then they have a good ensemble of actors and actresses on the cast list. It was nice to see Kari Wuhrer return to the role of Allison. The movie also boasts the likes of horror icon Tony Todd and I was genuinely surprised to see Jason Scott Lee in a movie such as this.

This movie doesn't stand well on its own in terms of being a stand-alone movie, because you definitely need some prior knowledge of the storyline and characters to fully grasp and appreciate what is happening throughout the course of "The Prophecy: Forsaken".

All in all, "The Prophecy: Forsaken" turned out better than I had initially anticipated. However, it is hardly a movie that warrants more than a single viewing.

Having seen all of the The Prophecy movies now, I still don't understand what the movies are all about. They are so messy and confusingly written. It's the reason why I've never cared about any of the movies out of the series.

It's so hard to tell who is fighting who in these movies and more importantly why. Characters keep changing sides and motives and the movie just never seem to be able to reach a satisfying closure. Basically all of the movies end with an open ending, that doesn't quite wrap all things up, including this picture, that as of yet is still the last one out of the series.

I just totally lost interest in this movie from the first couple of minutes on. I couldn't care or understand what was going on all and what the entire purpose of it all was. This is just simply a very poorly constructed movie.

I really can't see how anyone could ever like watching this.
