Goofs
When Charlie's baby is being born, you can see there is no umbilical cord. EDIT: There are two simple explanations for the missing umbilical cord: First, there is a medical term for babies born without an umbilical cord, it's called omphalocele - a birth defect of the abdominal (belly) wall. Second, since the child was never supposed to exist, this could be intentional because the child is an abomination..

Quotes
Gabriel: This can't be. You've disobeyed Him.
Michael: You gave Him what he asked for. I gave Him what He needed.

Crazy credits
At the very end of the credits, there is about 10 seconds of "Turkey In The Straw" (the ice cream truck music).

Simple story with lots of action

God has lost faith in man and he sends his legion of angels to bring on the Apocalypse. Archangel Michael (Paul Bettany) comes down to Earth to stop it. Jeep Hanson (Lucas Black) and his father Bob (Dennis Quaid) are taking care of pregnant Charlie (Adrianne Palicki). They work at Paradise Falls diner in the middle of nowhere with Percy Walker (Charles S. Dutton). Kyle Williams (Tyrese Gibson) has come to buy some drugs. Sandra (Kate Walsh) and Howard Anderson (Jon Tenney) are waiting for their car with sexual daughter Audrey (Willa Holland). Communication is cut off from the outside world. The group of strangers must battle all of heaven to save the world.

This movie has lots of interesting ideas and visual takes on this world. It's a shoot-em-up horror crossed with a graphic novel. The problem is that it's extremely underwritten. There is nothing to the story and the dialog is unimaginative. Otherwise it has good action and a few good actors. It's a bit of B-action.
