Well-paced film, does not feel very boring, although it has also some old-fashioned
begin intuition will feel this man is a murderer, his father began to feel something wrong from the beginning to the end suddenly reversed,
our materialism, this film still The alternative is fresh, and the
freshness lies in the fact that at the beginning it was not a monster, but a reality.
It is not until the end that you overthrow all your thoughts and thoughts.
I have been very upset when I watched it, and there are many things in the film that are worth thinking about.
It’s the first time to write a film review, hey, the writing is messy, and I have to organize the language in the future.

    Although expected, it was quite a surprise. Feels like "The Usual Suspects"

    The ending is a bit interesting, but the plot is not compact and can't stand scrutiny, I feel like I can't justify it ╮(╯▽╰)╭

Frailty quotes

  • [Dad wakes up both Young Fenton and Young Adam to tell them about his first sign from God]

    Dad: I need you both to listen to me very carefully. Something's happen.

    Adam Meiks: [voice-over] He said he had a vision, a vision from God.

    [Dad see's the reflection of white light off the trophy]

    Adam Meiks: An angel came to him and told him the truth of this world. And revealed God's special purpose for are family.

    Dad: The end of the world is coming, it's near. The angel showed me. There are demons among us, the Devil has released them for the final battle. It's being fought, right now. But, nobody knows it except us and others like us.

    Young Adam: I'm scared dad.

    Dad: There's nothing to be afraid of tiger. We've been chosen by God, he'll protect us. We've been given special jobs to do. We don't fear these demons, we destroy them. We pick them up one-by-one and we pitch them out of this world. That's God's purpose for us. The Angel called us God's hands.

    Young Adam: So we're like superheroes?

    Dad: That's right. We're a family of superheroes who are going to help save the world.

    Young Fenton: But dad, that doesn't make any sense.

    Dad: I know it sounds that way, son. But it's the truth.

    Young Adam: So, what are our superhero powers?

    Dad: Well... we can see the demons, when other people can't. And the Angel told me that God would be sending us three weapons to destroy them with.

    Young Adam: Magical weapons?

    Dad: I imagine so.

    Young Adam: When do we get 'em?

    Dad: I don't know the Angel just said soon. That's all I was told except that, we're not suppose to tell anybody about any of this, absolutely no one. If you do, you put them and ourselves in danger. Fenton... don't worry it's okay. It's a lot to understand. I wanted to wait to tell you 'til once I had the chance to figure it out myself. But the angel said I, I had to do it now. Fenton?

    Adam Meiks: [voice-over] I didn't know what to say or how to feel.

    Dad: Do you understand what I told you? Judgment day is here.

    Adam Meiks: [voice-over] I was too messed up to understander. End knowledge.

    Dad: Soon we'll all be in heaven. Me, you, Adam, with mommy...

    Adam Meiks: [voice-over] I didn't realize it at that moment, at least not consciously, but my happy and mostly secure world had just flipped over, and there were dark things under there...

    Dad: Judgment day is here...

    Adam Meiks: [voice-over] Very dark things.

    Dad: We've been chosen by God.

    Adam Meiks: [voice-over] And my little boy's mind just couldn't take it.

  • [Dad comes home and shows Young Fenton and Young Adam their first Demon out in the shed, Cynthia Harbridge]

    Young Adam: Dad?

    Dad: Come on out here, Adam.

    [turns to Fenton]

    Dad: Shine that light over here.

    Young Adam: Hey dad, who is that?

    Dad: That's a demon, son. Come on in here, boys, it's all right. Come on, don't be afraid.

    [closes them in the shed as the boys stare, frightened and stunned]

    Adam Meiks: [voice-over of Dad going to find the first demon] God had come to Dad earlier that day and told him that the time had come. After work he drove down to Jacksonville, about forty-five minutes or so southwest of Thurman. He said he had never been there before but he had no trouble finding it, God was leading him.

    Dad: [Dad watches Ms. Harbridge walk outside her front door] Cynthia Harbridge?

    Cynthia Harbridge: [turning around surprised] Yes?

    [Dad then hits her in the head with the metal pipe]

    Young Fenton: [Dad grabs for the ax] Dad don't! Please don't!

    Dad: Fenton, if I could spare you of this I would. But we are God's servants, and his will must be served! Don't be afraid, son.

    [Dad finally leans down to reveal Ms. Harbridge's sins]
