Synopsis: Based on the book of Revelation from the Bible, this is the modern day story of four men who become possessed by the Antichrist and are given his powers to destroy the world. The men are from different parts of the country and have never met but come together after their calling. While all four become invincible, they have different superhuman powers. This is the story of how the four men plan to destroy mankind and our inability and uselessness in defeating them.
What the press would say:
At nearly 3 and a half hours, many might be reluctant to see this movie. But as he did with the Lord of the Rings trilogy and King Kong, Peter Jackson makes every minute count in this dreary yet thrilling, special effects laden telling about the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. And all though the four men are not actually riding horses because of the modern day retelling, Jackson gives each his own mission and powers. An incredible screenplay by Jackson and fellow Lord of the Rings counterpart Fran Walsh give each actor their due and keeps the story alive. Shore's score is simply breathtaking.
