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.

Movie Review: Another New Star Emerges!!
Summary: 4 Stars

Avenging Angel is a decent western. Not horrible but not great either. It was nice to see Neil Summers again however through this so/so movie a star is born! Playing the role of Spencer with murderous precision is Lorin McCraley. Remember that name folks. I'm convinced we'll be seeing a lot of him in the future. His facial expressions alone were comedic in an insane kind of way, exactly how I think the Spencer character would be. The conviction with which he delivers his lines is so convincing, when sharing scenes with Kevin Sorbo, you would almost have to wonder who the star of this film really is. I imdb'd him and it says he's in some vampire show on HBO called "True Blood" created by Allan Ball. I think i remember him from a Bud Light commercial to but I'm not sure which one. As for Avenging Angel, I felt that in the end I found myself rooting against the bad guys as opposed to rooting for Kevin Sorbo, so props to the bad guys. I would definitely say it's worth the money to pick this one up, if for nothing else the performance of Lorin McCraley, a classic bad guy role brought to life with more emotion, humor and hatred than I've seen in quite some time!!
