- Film Critic Keith Van Sickle says "Babylon A.D." might gain a cult following. If you want to know why he thinks so simply check out the video on ktka.com .

- David Hiltbrand from Tuscaloosanews.com thinks
'Babylon' wonderfully executed rival of 'Children of Men'

Talk about exceeding expectations. Talk about exceeding expectations. 'Babylon A.D.,' which had all the cauliflower earmarks of a trashy action throwaway, turns out instead to be a disturbing, wonderfully executed vision of the future, the equal of last year's well-received 'Children of Men.'

The film also returns Vin Diesel to his ideal mode as a basso profundo decimator. In 'Babylon A.D.' he plays Toorop, a hardened mercenary scratching to survive in a brutal, bombed-out Eastern Europe.

Toorop is hired by Russian crime lord Gorsky (a nearly unrecognizable Gerard Depardieu) to smuggle a girl named Aurora (Melanie Thierry) from a Mongolian convent to New York.

He's joined by one of the convent's sisters (Michelle Yeoh) on this perilous pilgrimage during which they are attacked by everything but flying monkeys.

The chilling villainess of the piece is Charlotte Rampling, in an utterly convincing performance. She is the leader of one of several powerful interests who are determined to acquire Aurora.

The girl is not as fragile as she first appears. In fact, Toorop begins to wonder if his beautiful package is a savior or a weapon.

Director Mathieu Kassovitz ('Gothika') has done a remarkable job with this material. The action scenes are a little murky, but the atmosphere is superb, from a pocked and toxic Russia to the glittering affluence of North America.

His rendering of a future Manhattan, though brief, is captivating. Every block of this vertical, electronic ad-plastered island looks like Times Square. The details are excellent as well, down to the decor and the compulsory media saturation.

Seamless in its execution, the movie plays out like a grittier version of 'The Fifth Element.' 'Babylon A.D.' is a savage fairy tale, a tad overburdened with symbolism, but gripping nonetheless.

- And lastly, there's news about the Babylon Soundtrack that's going to be released on US iTunes. In addition, Amazon Germany already has it available for pre-order on their site.
