Both tasteless and intriguing..., 23 November 2006
6/10
Author: moonspinner55 from redlands, ca

Pregnant woman in the present day comes to believe the fate of the world may actually hinge on her unborn baby. Religious propaganda with suspense-thriller aspirations is mostly overwrought, but has enough chutzpah and magnetic performances to nearly make it worthwhile. Demi Moore is very good in a leading role that, if played too broadly, might've lapsed into camp or cliché; Moore is surrounded by frenzy, and yet she keeps a convincingly cool head and an open mind (though the director undermines her appeal with a possible suicide sequence--featuring Demi nude--that is rather tacky). The movie is ultimately thought-provoking and entertaining, though the screenwriters fail to follow through with their own set-up, rewriting God's Word in the process! **1/2 from ****
