 | "Averaging" Angel Jan 8, 2008 |
| Rather classic western plot actors performers less than average scene and action not very convincing | | |  | Avenging Angle (2007) Dec 31, 2007 |
| I like Sorbo and some parts have some good dry humur, but I should have rented it first to check it out. If you are a B movie collector or a spagetti western collector this is a good choice. | | |  | fan of kevin sorbo Dec 17, 2007 |
| watched the movie on tape first thought it was great then i bought the dvd for my video collection. | | | | "Bad Choices Must Run In The Family" ~ Hercules Meets Pale Rider Nov 29, 2007 |
Synopsis: The '07 made-for-television `Avenging Angel' is a somewhat entertaining western starring Kevin Sorbo as the avenging angel known as "the Preacher." You've seen this storyline many times before, idealistic, God-fearing man stands up against evil only to have his family killed and left with nothing but thoughts of revenge. He returns to the scene of the crime one year later and sees the same form of injustice taking place again perpetrated by the same group of bad guys. Looks like a good time for payback.
Critique: Sorry to disappoint all the Sorbo fans out there (which I am one of) but this is not a -5 Star- film. The first thing I found to be quite noticeable was the abrupt breaks in the presentation which of course one should expect in a film made for television. However in this case these interruptions were especially annoying because the storyline always seemed to have advanced during the intermission leaving the viewer to feel as though something had been missed. I also found the dialogue to be predictable and uninspired leading to stilted, predictable and one-dimensional performances.
As for Kevin Sorbo? Sorbo is at his best when he is allowed to inject humor and whimsy into his performance. Here in `Avenging Angel' he was confined in a role requiring a stoic, sullen individual. Such a portrayal doesn't play to Kevin's talents and hence doesn't deliver the type of performance his fans have come to expect and enjoy.
Positives: Kevin's real life wife Sam Jenkins has a small role at the beginning of the film as his soon to be deceased wife. It's always nice to see them on the screen together.
My Rating: Worth a watch, but probably not something to add to your permanent DVD collection unless you're a big fan of the big guy, -3 Stars-. | | | | Kevin Sorbo is back!! Nov 26, 2007 |
Avenging Angel is a western movie with a preacher who seeks justice for the untimely murder of both his wife and daughter. Kevin Sorbo (the preacher) manages to show emotional range and change his appearance to reflect his inner struggle to cope with his loss.
The supporting cast consists also does a fine job of displaying acting talent. This movie is simple, yet spectacular. The low budget does not impede the director from delivering one of the best made for television movies that I have seen in years! Good costumes, good location to create a western movie, and amazing acting is what Avenging Angel has for its viewers. Kevin Sorbo alone warrants a star. In fact, this is one of his best movie roles to date.
I rate Avenging Angel a 5 star movie. This will be a classic! Very well done- | | | Write your own review about Avenging Angel(2007)
