    Best movie ever!

    A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

    I only recently discovered this show because I liked the plot so I continued to finish the season. The entire journey, story line, effects, ups and downs and especially the end was amazing! Such a amazing cliff hanger! I couldn't wait for the next season until I discovered CW's cancellation. One voice may not make a difference however what about all of them put together. Please consider this and bring The Messengers back! If you truly believe it wasn't good enough in your eyes, then make it good enough in your eyes! BUT - In my eyes and through many others it is perfect as it is!

    I tried to stay vague, but clicked the spoiler box just in case as I don't want to get blacklisted ;)The biggest problem with a Netflix account is learning about shows after they've ended. My most recent example is The Messengers, which I still don't understand why it was canceled. For me, The Messengers was like a biblical/supernatural version of Heroes. We're given seven people who all mysteriously die when a meteor hits Earth, but they return moments later with new abilities. Vera can astral project, Raul is telepathic, Peter is super strong, Joshua has premonitions, Erin can heal, Koa can shape shift, and Rose can understand all languages. With that information alone I was interested. I love all things supernatural, and then when we find out the mystery is that they're angels sent back to earth to stop Lucifer from bringing fourth the apocalypse, I was hooked. These seven characters from all backgrounds are forced to work together to stop the Four Horsemen from breaking the seven seals and bringing forth the Apocalypse, which is made more difficult with Lucifer continuously manipulating them, and each of them having their own personal conflict to distract them. I especially enjoyed all the little things the show did, from giving each power a price, such as Erin's healing takes a toll on her body or Vera's astral projection only works in 6 minute increments. Power comes at a price and that adds a level of difficulty to their tasks. I also enjoyed the relationships. I know some people might dislike inevitable romances, but I found the relationship between Raul and Erin to be sweet, and the relationship between Peter and Nadia to be adorable. I was actually rooting for both couples, which doesn't happen often. I'll admit that the first episode or two was slow going, but that's just because we're learning about the characters, the plot, and trying to figure out how everyone fits into this story. Once the show had done that it picked up real quick, with each episode involving them finding one of the four horsemen, while also trying to help whichever one of them was dealing with their personal crisis. There were two major twists, one of which I did not see coming but loved. The minute it happened I was absolutely hooked, because suddenly everything made sense. I could see the hints leading me to it, and realized just how detailed the show was. Every conversation or episode hinted at future events and it was fun to go back and make the connections. Therefore, my only real complaint with this show is that it got canceled after 13 episodes. I don't get it. I was hooked after 4 episodes. I'm actually not sure why I wasn't watching it when it aired. Unfortunately, since it got canceled it ends with a major cliffhanger, though this one I saw coming. However, I want to know how the Messengers deal with it, and now I guess I'll never know. The final episode comes across as the winter finale to be continued in two months, but then it's not.

    I've been reading all the critic reviews and all. First of all I'm a fantasy genre lover. Looking at this series all I see is the message, whatever the plot entails, religious or whatever... From the beginning Lucifer falling down to earth and then 7 messengers connected, and then their destiny is connect; has been kind of like the story floating on my mind for a long time now since knowing about the book of apocalypse. sometimes movies/series carry a lot of messages that might be helpful to us one way or another; this whole story springing out from the holy bible merging the prophecy with modern event and sizing it out to what (maybe) how the end of the world may seem.It actually entails how humans can survive any threatening situation and the pending hope that always see us through. From the plot it somehow seem going against the Christian teachings (which is a big 'bad code') but it significance or message is entertaining. In the bit of it religious personnel (like me) will tend to pin out points... Why don't just let the series roll, a work that took much energy and insight to produce, its quite sad. No matter how bad it is there are many others that would love it.

    this show is an amazing show about apocalypse and it can't get any better I find it terrible that the show was canceled and I really wish they are to bring it back since there was only 13 episodes this is a disgrace. if advise anyone to watch this show, at first I thought it wouldn't appeal to me when my best friend told me to watch it, as I kept putting it off eventually I got to watching it and now I love it. my best friend and I are very upset that the show has been canceled and really want to know what happens (not giving any spoilers of course). despite the many good reviews this show got, it was canceled for three bad reviews and I think it was a terrible mistake to cancel this show, whether you believe me or not just because I'm a 14 year old when I see an amazing TV show I know that it is one, and this show definitely deserves a second chance
