It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

OK let's get the bad stuff out of the way first, it's a low budget film, the actors aren't great and generally quite bad a times but that is easily forgiven.To me there is a lot of truth within this film and the story is good which is ultimately what makes this film good and it's a great example that you don't need millions to make a decent film as well as the artistic feel (at times) it's just let down by some terrible acting, corny moments because this could have been a masterpiece if they worked on those things.They are actually working on a sequel and I for one am very exited, hopefully they'll work on the aforementioned negatives and make a brilliant next movie.

Most Australian director/writers have a certain look on there films which is why Australia is no Hollywood. That said Gabriel is an Australian film in the style of a dark Hollywood action horror. It's easy to see why this film done very well in the united states as it's not all about the country of Australia or it leaves out the Australian feel which kind of makes most Australian films the same or comparable to each other. Gabriel is not comparable to any Australian films but it has compared to Constantine an American film. Shane abbess is the kind of Australian director/writer that I inspire to be. I want to make action/graphic novel films. As an Australian my work would be very American and not a typical Australian film much like Gabriel. So that is why Gabriel worked on many levels for me.

First of: If you don't feel like reading all the review, at least read the Bottom line at the end, it will tell you all you need to know.I was surprise to see this movie has just 5 stars accumulative in IMDb. Usually IMDb is a great place to get good references for movies, but this time, don't pay too much attention to bad reviews.I can understand if people didn't like the movie, but the comments from people who rated the movie low just doesn't make sense.The acting is good, specially coming from unknown actors... I particularly liked the performance of Dwaine Stevenson. But most other characters did a very good job as well.The setting was portrayed adequately, and the effects, I believe, for the most part where good, not over-done or exaggerated.Truth is, I would change a few things from the movie, but that is also true for most movies I see, possible exceptions include Training Day and The Matrix...If you are looking to compare this movie, you need look no further than Constantine, but it is in no way a copy, it just resembles in how it feels for the viewer.I personally think that a low budget didn't hurt this movie that much, and the people involved did a far better job than with bigger, higher-budget blockbusters.Bottom line is: If you think the premise of the movie seems interesting, you will probably like it. Otherwise, don't see it cause you'll just be another reviewer posting a bad review on a good movie.
