I seem to have liked this movie more than most people (but I like occult-type movies generally). Of course, the movie has a twist so, the question is: can you figure out the twist before it's revealed (I did, but not by much). I thought the twist was cool. Sure, there are plot elements that are a bit of a strecth but really, how much can you really expect from this type of movie.
I thought TR was interesting and entertaining. Nobody is going to win any awards for this one but it was worth watching.
Recommended.

Well you can tell by my blatant sarcasm that this movie was far from scary. If anything it had one really creepy part and the rest was like a supernatural episode of Law & Order or something. Most of the horror lovers will probably love my opening sentence and quickly get rid of this and that's why I wrote that first. The film is about a woman named Katherine (Hilary Swank) who has had a pretty tough life so far. She lost her child and husband during a expedition. Katherine investigates what seem to be supernatural acts and gives them a scientific explanation. Because of what happened to her family she has lost all faith. She is now a professor at LSU with her partner Ben played by Idris Elba. Her and Ben are called upon to help explain a crazy and shocking discovery.
In a small town called Haven the river has turned completely red like blood, which is the first plague. After more and more start to happen like frogs falling from the trees into the river she encounters a young girl. The girl runs and then she is told that the town thinks the girl killed her brother and is the reason for the plagues. Because of this the town believes they have to kill the girl to stop the plagues. Katherine undergoes a huge battle trying to decide if the girl is truly evil or the exact opposite. There is some good to this movie, the acting is really good and it has great picture and sound quality. Also it's a interesting story and it kept me interested to the end.
What messes up The Reaping is the fact that it is not even a thriller. It does not scare you at all and it takes forever to get to a point that you know is coming. There were a few scenes where they were building you up for something scary and then it stops. Nothing happens, just on to the next bit of information. It really was like a prolonged TV mystery that couldn't be too scary. What scared me most was that I almost bought this movie instead of borrowing it. I only hope my friend can trade this in or something. Overall the movie was ok but if your looking for something scary which this is obviously supposed to be don't even waste your time.

Hilary Swank is an ordained minister who has turned her back on religion. She now spends her time disproving religious phenomenon. Now she has been called to the small town of Haven where supposedly a young girl turned the local river into blood. But no sooner does the investigation begin than frogs fall from the sky. Soon more plagues manifest in the small community. Many of the townsfolk feel it is the work of a young girl living in the swamp and that she should be eliminated. But what is really going on and what role is Swank supposed to play? Another minster who Swank is acquainted with thinks he may have the answer.
As the film moves along it does a very good job of playing The Old Testament and keeping things on track. But later when the new prophesy is brought in it gets a little muddled. I found it interesting that it had to be stressed that the prophesy was older than Christ when they are reliving events far older. Is magic at work? Is it God? The Devil? Is faith required? Overall a pretty good movie although it gets a little muddled at the end as explanations are offered too quickly to sink in as the action escalates. Could have been a little better but still pretty good. Check it out.

THE REAPING is one of those disposable religious-based thrillers with the prestige of having a two-time Oscar winner in the leading role. Hilary Swank plays a professor who makes a career out of refuting so-called miracles by providing scientific support for any odd occurrences. We learn why she lost her faith and why she wants to debunk God's involvement. A science teacher from Haven, Louisiana approaches Swank when it appears that the ten plagues from Biblical lore may be occurring there and brought on by a strange little girl.
Th3 effects are decent, but the movie never really achieves horrific proportions and the involvement of a Satanic cult seems a little farout. But it's an okay diversion.
