Review written by Kathie Huddleston for SciFi Weekly, June 2006.

Turning 18 can be tough enough without gaining super powers and discovering that your destiny involves killer angels. Aaron Corbett (Wesley) is about to turn 18. Unfortunately, he's having terrifying dreams that he's being pursued by someone or something that then threatens his family. He wakes up to find his adoptive mom and dad wishing him a happy birthday.

But having a happy birthday is the last thing on Aaron's mind when he goes to school and ends up in a fight with another member of the wrestling team--off balance, thanks to a pretty girl he's attracted to, and dealing with a splitting headache that doesn't want to go away. Something's wrong, and it's not just the normal teenage stuff.

Suddenly he can freeze time, he has super-strength, and he can even understand other languages. In fact, he can communicate with his dog, Gabriel. But his newfound powers go from strange to stranger when he meets a crazy old bum named Zeke (Skerritt), who claims to be a fallen angel. It only gets more bizarre when Zeke tells Aaron he is the product of a union between a fallen angel and a human. Zeke also has a dire warning for Aaron. Angels are on their way, and they are determined to destroy "abominations" like him, believing that this is what the Creator wants them to do.

Talk of angel death squads is bad enough, but there's also the prophecy that Zeke believes Aaron is destined to fulfill. Zeke tells Aaron he is the Redeemer, the only one of his kind, and Aaron is destined to be a bridge between mortals and angels. But when a vicious angel named Verchiel (Lackey) and her henchmen pick up his trail, Aaron couldn't care less about the prophecy. He just wants to be normal, a condition that seems unlikely considering that pesky destiny business.
