Critics Consensus

Despite a solid cast and intermittent thrills, Legion suffers from a curiously languid pace, confused plot, and an excess of dialogue.

Swallowed up by its effort to be a film of multiple genres. The only genre it earns a place in is comedy; it achieves an amount of unwarranted laughs of biblical proportions.

Rated: 2/5

Deep Focus Review

A whole series of familiar tropes wrapped up in a cliché-ridden bow.

Rob's Movie Vault

The movie takes its absurdity very very seriously, but somehow it retains the vibe of the sort of flick you used to encounter in the video store in a lurid, battered clamshell case.

Rated: B-

This is a horror movie that has a nice build up and has a few good death scenes. It is an end of the world movie that draws its story from the Catholic religion, so that may turn some people off but I've seen much worse. Ending is terrible as most horror movies are. End of the day t's a horror movie, so don't expect too much and just enjoy ii. Matty Bizz - Cask and Crow podcast

If you can't handle demons and crazy evil possessions - don't watch the film. If you’re a hardcore bible reader, don’t watch the film - it won't match up. Otherwise, grab a Corona and enjoy

Great use of one location and a surprisingly entertaining film that should be considered a cult classic.
