Summary of Nostradamus

The battle for the future has begun. Only the past can save it. While pursuing their suspect, Michael is mysteriously transported back to 16th century France. There he confronts Garamond (Finton McKeown - Walking Ned Divine), leader of the Sixth Order. Michael discovers the nexus between past and present has been erased through the use of a secret time machine created by Leonardo da Vinci. An enemy of the Sixth Order, La Font (Michael Gwynne) helps Michael escape and reveals that he, Michael, is actually the legendary Nostradamus. La Font explains the Sixth Order's plan to eliminate certain souls and bring about Armageddon - the final confrontation between good and evil. Michael returns to the present day, only to discover that no one knows him, except the psychic Lucy. Now a battle for the future has begun and only he stop it.
The plot of Nostradamus has something to do with a demonic cult of time-traveling monks trying to instigate the apocalypse. But fortunately, the filmmakers don't spend a lot of time trying to make this seem eerie or soul-threatening. Instead, they go for sheer propulsive storytelling, and the result is surprisingly entertaining. Minneapolis detective Mike Nostrand (Rob Estes) begins investigating cases of apparent spontaneous combustion and discovers that they've been induced by chanting demons from the 16th century. He has a hard time swallowing this, despite the conviction of FBI psychic Lucy (Joely Fisher, decked out in miniskirts, push-up bras, and leather jackets). But when he puts on a ring connected to a time-traveling device, he suddenly finds himself in medieval France (where, fortunately, everyone speaks English). According to prophecy, he's Nostradamus, come to save the world! It's all pretty silly, but the script is efficient enough to keep everything moving. Estes and Fisher are pleasant and deliver their dialogue with straight faces. At the end, Nostradamus feels like a pilot for a time-traveling X-Files. Though Estes has some unfortunate "medieval" facial hair, it might make for an amusing series. Fans of Xena and Hercules might also find it up their alley. --Bret Fetzer
