Review of The Prophecy: Uprising

Upon the death of a priest, a church worker named Allison (Wuhrer) discovers an old bible known as the Lexicon. An angel named Simon (London) tells her that she is the keeper of it now and the final book Revelations is writing itself. With the very fate of humanity hanging in the balance she teams up with a rough detective (Pertwee) and an Interpol agent (Light) who may be hiding something. Someone is killing angles all over town by ripping their hearts out and the Bucharest location helps with some atmosphere. Directed by Joel Soisson, this Christopher Walken-less fourth film in the franchise is a long way from the original. The cast is good and a few gory moments are sprinkled throughout, but 'Uprising' is just missing something in the entertainment department. The story line and actors should have given this a spark of energy that it just doesn't have. It moves from scene to scene without much life and the move feels dull even though the production values and cast is very good. Maybe it comes from the fact that this series really didn't need to continue.
