I rather enjoyed this movie. I had absolutely no expectations and thought I was going to fast forward based on a few bad reviews, but I gave it a chance and it was not that bad. If you rent this movie just to see Megan Fox half-nude, then you are going to be disappointed. She gives a deeper, more mature performance in this movie.
He mysteriously gets saved by three native Americans who shoot the killer and run off. He Starts walking and ends up at a carnival. He meets Megan Fox who is a half woman half bird creature. She tells him that she is not an angel, she hates being a freak and that she can not fly. He rescues her from the evil owner of the Carnival. The run off, fall in love, the gangster finds out about the "angel" and takes her in exchange for the musicians life. He goes back for her..... ... in the end they try to get away from the gangster and get stuck on a roof. He jumps off and she jumps after him and manages to catch him and suddenly she is able to fly. As they fly further and further away they arrive at the same mountains where he was about to get killed in the beginning of the movie. Then you see the killer driving away in his car and the musician lying dead on the ground. So he was dead all along.
I think the whole movie was a bit symbolic. The musician tries to be good and saves the "angel" and ends up saving himself.
- The plot in short (contains spoilers): Mickey Rourke plays a washed up musician. He has been sleeping with a gangsters wife, so he is about to get executed by a hired killer in some remote mountains. Then a series of "unlikely" events take place.
