The Prophecy is a crime movie directed by Gregory Witton and starring Christopher Walken and Elias Koteas.
The crime movie tells the story of the Archangel Gabriel, who plans to launch a coup d'etat in heaven because he is dissatisfied with God for devoting all his attention to mankind.
Archangel Gabriel could not tolerate God's favor on human beings. After his coquettish prayers to God were unsuccessful, he resolutely imitated the former Archangel Lucifer and led one-third of the angels in heaven to rebel. The second celestial war The first shot was officially launched. It is said that the darkest and most slaughtering soul in the world is about to be born. A general who fought in the Vietnam War died in his hometown and town. Both factions wanted to accept this ultimate weapon in the crime movie.
At the coronation ceremony of officially becoming a priest, the male protagonist inexplicably saw the scene of the celestial war and became incontinent. After that, he became a policeman and was found inexplicably by two angels and got involved. I won't say the ending and you can guess it, but once again emphasize the ingeniousness of God's arrangement and the importance of maintaining faith in the crime movie.
The plot of this crime movie is actually not very interesting. Like the bad omen, it finally returns to the chattering preaching, but it is more ingenious and there is still room for speculation. "so many people lose their faith cos heaven show them too little, but how many people lose their faith cos heaven show them too much" the actor sighed at the beginning of the scene. In my understanding, all beautiful idealized things cannot stand up to rational scrutiny, whether it's heaven, utopia, communism, rock music, or whatever. Taking faith as a means of redemption is feasible for an individual, but for the whole society and a certain nation, it is more insane to use faith as a means of salvation. Unfortunately, in this country it is tradition.
The main charm of the crime movie comes from Christopher Walken, who plays Gabriel. His semi-nervous temperament is paired with cynical dialogue about human beings. I hadn't seen other films he starred in before, but I learned later that he had starred in pulp fiction, and it was the boxer Butch who dreamed of officially handing over the gold watch left by his father to his veteran when he was a child. This film has also produced two sequels, which are not as compact as the first one, but you can continue to see Christopher Walken's performance, which is enough for entertainment.
Archangel Gabriel, dissatisfied with God for devoting all his attention to mankind, plans to launch a coup in heaven and kill all the good angels. For the coup to succeed, Gabriel must gain the support of the soul of a tyrannical general who is possessed by the little American girl, Mary, by the angel Simon, who has learned of Gabriel's conspiracy. Due to the war in heaven, souls cannot ascend to heaven for the time being. Gabriel had to go down to the world to find the general's soul. Thomas became a priest after graduating from the seminary, but because he had doubts about his beliefs, he turned to be a policeman. When he discovered Gabriel's conspiracy, he joined forces with The teacher Katherine works together to protect the ignorant Mary, and Satan's participation complicates matters because he is worried that the war will affect his rule.
