... but intolerable. Turned it off after 50. Great premise but utterly butchered and horribly executed.
I for one am not religious neither non-religious. So that part didn't bother me. Although I have a soft spot for 90s nostalgia but this was just terrible. I remember watching a clip of it in South Africa's Mnet when it came out and got turned off by the wings' depiction. It just looked gross. And here I am 28 years later and still couldn't be sold.
While Phenomenon was phenomenal, the fans of the former will be massively disappointed. This was just all over the place.
"Michael" looked like a big baby except nothing adorable about him. I wasn't turned off by smoking or sexual reference but minor things like:
-Why would there be a largest milk bottle and largest twine in such close proximity? -Why would a fight break out all of a sudden? -What was the point of the dumb bull fight?
It was just plain cringe. It was nothing charming, the plot was glacial and even after 50 mins it went nowhere. Andie McDowell overdid a naive ditz character without coming as coy, sweet and heart warming. Rest of the cast were all stooges. (FWIW, as I am watching the angel movies, "Legion" was another terrible one, but "Angels on the Outfield" drove it out of the park.
