Fallen

Anyone else watching this? I'm finding it mildly amusing so far. Just watched the first part today.

I liked it overall. The mythos is pretty cool. If it weren't for a few annoying additions to the story (talking dog = teh lame) and bad actors (female Nephilim is horrible ) I'd rate it pretty high. Sure, it has some blatant Prophecy rip offs, but it's still a pretty good Heaven/Hell good angel vs. fallen angel flick. Even touches on some pretty deep subjects concerning blind faith, forgiveness and good vs. evil in a philosophic sense.

Saw the other two episodes. Ending was a weak but I'd give the series an okay overall. And yeah I agree that some of the actors were very weak. Fortunately the main guy was okay and the guy playing Azazel was pretty damn good.

The dog was amusing at first but got old.

I am surprised you guys liked this show. I just watched the first episode and thought it was awful, and I will watch just about anything. Some of the worst cgi I have ever seen.

Oh, the graphics were certainly extremely low budget and mostly bad. I just mostly liked the premise and the overall plot/story/mythos/whatever. The ending was definitely anti-climatic, though.

Same, the premise and story is interesting enough to get my attention. only seen the first part so far though.

I liked the first one more than the other 2 episodes, but overall I still enjoyed it.

I was positive that the dog was going to turn out to be something more important.

Gabe = Gabriel

But I was wrong.

Ya, the dog was just plain lame and felt like an afterthought or something marketing came up with and forced on the show in order to add something "for the kiddies".

prescient63 You can't blame women for what they do wrong in the same way that you can't blame a dog for what it does wrong.
