Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIn 2014, SyFy network launched a television series called Dominion that is set 25 years after the events in Legion. In 2015, after two seasons, SyFy cancelled the series.
- GoofsWhen Charlie's baby is being born, you can see there is no umbilical cord. EDIT: There are two simple explanations for the missing umbilical cord: First, there is a medical term for babies born without an umbilical cord, it's called omphalocele - a birth defect of the abdominal (belly) wall. Second, since the child was never supposed to exist, this could be intentional because the child is an abomination..
- Crazy creditsAt the very end of the credits, there is about 10 seconds of "Turkey In The Straw" (the ice cream truck music).

Featured review
Story might not be original, but performances are excellent!
This movie didn't arrive in my country with much fanfare, so before I bought a ticket I did some research. Most reviews were negative, but I went to see it out of pure boredom. I didn't expect much and having read all the negative reviews I watched it with my critics glasses on.
I actually enjoyed this movie. Never have I given a movie 8/10 before. Why did I do it now? Performances. I reckon the people who went out to see this movie expected blood, guts and fecal matter flying all over the place. Instead they found hardcore actors doing what they do best. Even lesser known actors were up there doing it with the masters of the industry. Paul Bettany is one of the most underrated actors of our time. When has he ever given anything but a solid performance? Dennis Quaid? His prettiness might be a thing of the past, but as a performer he grows with every movie he makes. The same goes for the whole cast. They all acted like superstars.
You won't like this movie if you're into mindless B-grade BS. If, however, you like movies because the actors telling the story makes a fantasy feel so real you actually feel you're gonna break the armrests off your chair you should do yourself a favor and see this movie.
On a final note. Being a Christian myself I did not find this movie offensive at all.
