Oh Legion, You Had Me at Upside Down Crucifixion

I know it's been a while folks, and I have several movies I'm backed up on reviewing... and eventually I'll throw a Favre rant in there too but I saw this trailer, and oh my it looks tasty. Legion's plot is simple - after God loses faith in humanity, the archangel Michael is the only one standing between mankind and the apocalypse. He leads a group of strangers who must protect a woman who is pregnant with Christ in his second coming. In that group of strangers is Dennis Quaid... who is a lot like Kurt Russell - underrated. Sure, they both do a lot of shit, but they're always great in it, especially Kurt, he' so dreamy... I mean badass, yeah... badass. Anywho, even though I'm not very religious the plot really shouldn't matter here because there's gun violence and an upside down crucifixion. This absolutely Barachus looking film also stars Paul Bettany (as Michael), Kevin Durand, Charles S. Dutton, and 'Whatchu want... Whole lotta' Tyreeeeeeeeeeeeese! And even though I'm not cool enough to know what it means, this is NSFW. There's no boobies (bummer I know) but there is swearing and the aforementioned gun violence and crucifying. Enjoy.
