Summary: Incredible Apocolyptic Thriller!
Review: I can't understand why people beat down this movie so much! True, I may not agree with everything said in this film, but it's still ten times better than the junk they put out on a regular basis. I saw nothing wrong with the acting ~ Michael York was especially excellent ~ the story moved along quickly, keeping my complete attention, and above all, morals were placed high. Keeping your family together, fighting evil, and knowing that there is a Higher Power (Jesus) out there is all mixed well with deception, intrigue, and climax. This film will keep you guessing from beginning until end ~ no expected lines or scenes here. I'm going to give a copy to everyone I know.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: truly unbearable
Review: easily one of the worst and most boring movies i've ever seen. also one of the most incomprehensible. casper van diem or whatever his name is gives the worst lead performance i've ever seen, bar none. i've seen actors be more stilted, but i've never seen someone misinterpret a character so much. his infomercial persona stays with him in dramatic scenes with his wife, which, incidentally, is one of several plotlines in this movie that is forgotten about pretty early on. another involves some senator who seems to owe something to van diem, but he only shows up in two scenes; one near the beginning, and later in the worst dream sequence i've ever seen (i have no idea when the sequence began, how long it was, or what effect it had on the rest of the movie). meanwhile, michael york becomes "chancellor of the united world." also interesting is how practically every scene takes place in a different country, though most of the characters are in almost every scene. this movie is an insult to every person in the entire world.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You guys are just TOO FUNNY!
Review: Hey! Everyone that is insulting this movie is just too funny! Your messages are so entertaining I always read them and get a good laugh out of them. You guys are just HURTING your self with all the insults! You guys crack me up! Casper Van Dien (Starship Troopers) brings the film together, his acting is stunningly good! Michael York is of course good too! This film starts of slow, but pick's up and is terrific! I loved it! Hey! What anybody says it won't change my view on this film! Fun, entertaining, terrific, and Thrilling. Wanna exciting movie with no sex, or language for the family? You just came to the right page, buy through Amazon!

Summary: because it was BAD
Review: the acting was terrible (the only decent actor in the cast was Michael Ironside). the plot line was NOT true to the Bible (excuse me, isn't the tribulation supposed to last 7 years?) it wasn't even true to the Bible Code (what was all this gunk about 'the last line of code'? all the bible code does is pull from what's already in the Bible) if you want to read a good story about this subject, i highly recommend the LEFT BEHIND series (most of the plot and characters from the Omega Code seem to be copied from it anyway)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Clever movie, but terrible producing
Review: I appreciate Hollywood making a Christian movie about therevelation. The plot was good, the meaning was good, but the movieitself was cheesy. The acting was pretty corny. Get that Casper Van whatever guy out of there! He played the action parts pretty well, but he can't act! Michael York did the best job depicting the antichrist. There are good themes to the movie, but it was pretty cheap. They could of done a better job. See, the whole point of making a Christian movie is not to just make the Christians happy, but to attract unbelievers. And I'm telling you right now, unbelievers won't understand a bit of the movie. You should encourage Hollywood to continue making Christian movies.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Why does everyone hate this movie?
Review: This is one of the best movies I've ever seen. I don't know why everyone hates this movie. The acting is great, and the ending is amazing! This movie is so true to the bible. I can't believe Hollywood made this. A lot of people don't like his movie because I guess they don't know what's going on. One word would sum up this whole movie. Wow!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: 0 Stars would be much better
Review: Well, a buddy bought this and I sat through it again, all the while wondering if it would have gotten any better in the translation from the big screen.... No, it didn't but at least I didn't pay to see it this time...

I still can't figure out the opening, where the bad guy shoots the guy decoding the secret code. He shoot shim, sneaks out, is suddenly confronted at all turns by shadowy people who seem to have the power to do something to this guy.. since he seems to want to avoid any confrontation.. THEN he gets cornered by two of them and grabs a child holding her hostage.. now we think he will get his, but they just TALK! Then he walks away with not a care in the world. And there must be millions of cameras spread all over the city since the evil mastermind is supposedly watching through one that happens to be right there... hmmmmm and this was just the OPENING of the movie... sad sad sad...

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: The first decent attempt at trying to flesh out end times
Review: This movie was not all that bad, to me. It was a pretty good attempt at fleshing out end times events and I can appreciate that. For a low budget movie, I say they did a pretty good job. I did feel, however, that there were some big weaknesses it though. The military power and influence of Micheal York's character was not established enough for me. When he started barking out for his Generals to act, I wondered who he was refering to. His military influence was nowhere spelled out. And Casper Van Dien's Tony Robins like character was a bit too much in the talk show sceens. I can't believe he let the director make him jump around like he did. Other than that, Van Dien is a pretty good actor to me. The Abomonation that makes Desolate scene was the WORST! Personally, I REALLY like Micheal Ironside's character; seeing him in an Orthodox Jewish costume gave me a new respect for him having a good sense of humor. Like I said, it's a pretty good attempt on this topic. If the producers make another film on this or other topic and listen to some of the critique here, I believe that a really good work that is widely accepted is possible.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: How about half a star?
Review: One forgets to even look for a plot in this movie as it is so poorly acted and directed. The acting is wooden and what plot there is lacks continuity and development. Wouldn't even suggest this for a rental. Read the book

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Don't rent or buy this movie of pure heresy.
Review: If I could have given this movie less than one star, I would have. This movie promotes Equadistant Letter Sequencing which is heresy because it is saying God said something that he didn't say. I would rather eat my own liver with a rusty spoon than watch this movie again. The only redeeming quality of this movie is that (other than the ELS stuff) it follows the book of Revelation fairly closely. This movie should have a warning lable on it saying "Watching this movie could be hazardous to your salvation."
