They had press screenings in Ireland - though maybe they shouldn't have!

Well that's disappointing, is it at least better than legion? lol

Don't know, I'll have to go see. Legion was disappointing wasn't it?

I liked Legion for a long time, until the ridiculous ending. Imo, this is worse than Legion.

I was almost convinced this movie might be good because for the life of me I couldn't understand why it was being released in the busy summer months. It looks like it should have come out in the dead of winter. Could very be this years Jonah Hex and a strong razzie contender. And what I hear it shares barely any resmeblance to the comic it's based on.

@above, I think legion had a good ending, just very poorly executed. In addition, for a movie about the end of the world, it didn't have enough scope, the entire time it was in a diner or 10 miles further in the middle of nowhere, and then a 2 minute scene in the city. I really doubt Priest is worst than that.

Ouch, yeah I am not surprised at all, this movie looks terrible

I have to admit, this never looked appealing to me. But then I recently saw another trailer for it that had bits that looked a bit entertaining (maybe on a rental/Netflix level). But judging by reviews, my first impression was right. Who knows, though. Maybe when they bring it to Netflix Instant I might check it out for the simple fact that I really like Paul Bettany.

He is a good actor. I thought he did an outstanding job in the DaVinci Code.

He's always believable but I've never been a fan of his American accent. The man was born with some of the coolest delivery on the planet, why mangle it by making him translate?
