It was a slick entertaining demony good time. It wasn't the Exorcist but then it wasn't supposed to be.
Let me make something absolutely clear here, I don't approve of who they cast simply because I read Hellblazer (the Comic this movie is based of) and Keanu is not a blond englishman. However that is not to say he did a bad job, he managed to impart a nice dosage of bitter black humor into the role and should be commended for that.
Weisz is forgettable, sorry kiddo, everyone else is kinda meh though Tilda as the androgynous angel Gabriel (remember kids, Angel's have no gender according to a few texts) was pretty good. Decent soundtrack though Brian's Children of Dune and Bubba Ho Tep is better.
This, like Van Helsing, Hellboy and others does what it's suppose to do: it entertains.
Plus the exorcism scene was pretty cool.
7/10

Cute for about 10 minutes before it becomes a mindless laserfest. No map so its easy to get lost. The "Bounty Tracking" system is poorly laid out. Which results in getting shot a lot. The money you get from bounties really serves no purpose.
Overall a disappointment. Something that could have been very cool, such as a Manhunt with better controls a star wars theme became a mindless shoot 'em up. Rather indictative of most of Lucas's work. Lots of flash, very little substance.
You want a good star wars game? go play X-Wing, TIE fighter, Dark Forces or Knights of the Old Republic
