Summary: This movie has a message
Review: Yes it was poorly directed and a score like a movie that you would hear on the Simpsons tv. But it was very intelligent and had a message to deliver. Overall I hope it is remade with a talented director. It is a hard film to watch if you look at the shell. Try to get caught up in the story.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: WHAT A RIP
Review: The the exagerated promotional hype was typical of the mega "D" rated production this was. The plot, that an omnipotent God's power could be deminished by some secret numerical code out of the "Bible" a book that "God" is supposed to have created, is as mindless as anybody that wuold buy into it. Acting was extreeemly poor paralleled with equally poor directioin. As for writing, well, "The Revelation of Garfield" would have set the seen with as much scriptural reverence. I can't remember a bigger disapointment in a movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If you're not a Christian
Review: If you are not a Christian or have no background in the Christian belief system then this is not the movie for you. I have found that in order to appreciate this movie, one must appreciate the Bible as a book written for our guidence and knowledge. If you have no interest in the truth, you have no interest in this movie.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Nahhh
Review: I must admit it was fairly entertaining, but the acting andmuch of the story was outright artificial.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Getting content to the action
Review: Having read the book, I asked myself whether watching the movie would be worthwhile. And, oh yes, it was! While not quite measuring up to Spielberg, it was quite refreshing having the story told in less Hollywoodian style. The movie follows the book script strictly but this only emphasise the fact that some books are better on screen.

Good directing, credible story-telling and a wonderful couple of villains - Michael (York) and Michael (Ironside) - carrying the film through. While York's slick face and British accent makes him the likeable world saviour from the beginning, the evil, ever-present smile of Michael Ironside portrays just the wonderful sidekick that would love to mess things up. Perfectly played.

Not just an action movie but a good story told, too. Sound and picture is good, and software design excellent.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Unfortunately I can't rate it less than one star
Review: I have never been so passionate about saving others from the pain of watching a movie as I am with the Omega Code. Why actors like Michael Ironside, and Michael York got suckered into making this, I don't know (I expected bad acting from Casper VanDien). The movie started bad and reached new depths. Bad acting, story and left me with anger for not only paying to see it, but for spending 90 mins of my life on it. Do yourself a favor, and steer clear of this one.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Vile christian propiganda
Review: Think about it, have you ever seen a film this bad, come on,give it a good thought,no, i would reccomend showgirls or caddyshack 2 before I would ever recommend this swill. Only rent it if you are a big fan of UPN

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Here's an interesting Review...
Review: Ok, i heard about this movie over the radio. It sounded good, and i wanted to see it. I missed it in the theaters, so when it came out on video, i watched it, and let me tell you, it's one of my favorites. I'm buying ASAP. When i read the reviews, i was surpised to find that many didn't like this. When i read them, it seemed that most of the negative comment were from non-Christians, and most of the positive comments were from Christians. Since i'm a Christian, I can't give a balanced view, or attack the negative reviewers. I just want to say that I personally don't think that you have to be a Christian to appreciate this movie. It does help if you know about Revelation, but I just don't think that non- Christians should not see it because of what it's about. This movie has stirred up alot of stuff, and it's interesting how the non-Christians have opposed it so much. But anyway, whoever you are, you need to see it. It will help make a difference.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent Movie
Review: This is one of best movies I have seen that depicted the end of days. Its Biblical accuracy are as close as I have seen. Excellent special effects. The plot line was one of the most interesting I had seen, the fact that it took some thought is apparently what makes people reject it, they just don't want to see a movie that makes them think. In order to fully understand the movie, you should have some background in the Book of Revelation. Overall, it was a great movie with great accuracy and some spectaculare special effects.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Good thing I only rented it
Review: But $3 was still way to much to pay to watch this. I thought the story would be good... the bible code... sounds pretty interesting, and it probably could be if not for the horrible acting and writing. I cannot overstate how terrible and laughable the acting of Casper Van Dien is in this movie. And there is a fine line in writing that teeters between profound and cheesy, unfortunately the Omega Code writer(s)slipped and stumbled blindly into cheesy.

This movie is worth a laugh, but that's about it.
