Movie Reviews of Avenging Angel(2007)
Movie Review: Nothing original, but what can you expect from a western?
Summary: 4 Stars
A preacher turned bounty hunter (Kevin Sorbo) helps a group of homesteaders to stand up to the man who murdered his wife and daughter.
There is nothing original about this made-for-television western, but hey, there's little originality in most westerns, so you can hardly complain. "Avenging Angel" is, nevertheless, an entertaining film that contains all of the right elements to please western fans (clear-cut heroes and villains; assorted gun fights; a girl whom you know that our hero will end up with in the end); Sorbo, as usual, is likeable enough to make us care for his character; and the plot is a lot easier to follow and has a much more satisfying ending than Sorbo's other made-for-television western, "Prarie Fever". Being made for television and clearly targeted at a family audience, there is very little in this film that is likely to offend anyone. No one ever swears, everyone keeps their clothes on and even though some people do get killed, there is never any blood. Futhermore, there are no moral grey zones - the villains are purely evil and the hero is purely good. There's even a nice little sub-plot about Sorbo's character finding happiness with a single mother and her daughter. It's all pure escapist fantasy, but fans of Sorbo's other films/television shows and western fans in general will likely find this an enjoyable way to spend 81 minutes of their lives.
Summary of Avenging Angel(2007)
When a preacher (Kevin Sorbo) defends a local town from greedy land-barons, his church is destroyed and his family is killed. Now known simply as "The Preacher," he picks up his long-forgotten gun, leaves town, and heads out into the desert to begin a new life as a bounty hunter. Returning years later, he discovers his town has been overrun by the same scoundrels who destroyed his quiet existence. The Preacher can no longer stand by and watch as innocent people suffer the same fate as he. Justice must be served.Drama DVD Video
