Summary: Most underrated film I can think of, it is simply awesome!
Review: A fantastic film worth watching over and over again. Demi Moore's best performance. Jurgen Prochnow's (David Bannon) performance is remarkable and unmatched. I love Apocalyptic films and this one is up there with The Omen in my opinion. Best quote of the film: David Bannon speaking to Avi: "Remember it all, write it down, tell it; so people will use the chance she has given them." A great last line for any movie. Watch this movie hundreds of times and I guarantee you will never get tired of it. After viewing the film for the first time I suggest that all people take David's advice and stay close to God no matter what your religion is.

Summary: Absolute Junk
Review: A film that fails to overcome the fact that it stars Demi Moore. Nonsensical hocus-pocus pseudo-biblical script. (Hint: pick up the Book of Revelations while you watch the flick, and see how much they get wrong.) Awful acting, clanking dialogue. Just drags on and on and on....

Summary: Messiah with a German accent, why not?
Review: All the characters are very annoying. Not too intellectual either. I guess, those who like Demi Moore will like the movie, I am not one of them. Three stars out of respect for Jurgen Prochnow only (What is he doing in this movie anyway?)

Summary: Watch for revival of The Seventh Sign
Review: Amid the various current releases with themes relating to the turn of the millenium and the Apocalypse, The Seventh Sign is a thought-provoking and scary sleeper from a more than a decade before (1988) that's bound for a revival in 2000.A very pregnant Abby Quinn (Demi Moore) has a disturbing, recurring dream of a Roman soldier (Peter Friedman) striking a condemned Jesus Christ to the ground and demanding, "Will you die for him?" Little does she know the future of the world rests on her answer to the question after the Messiah returns to Earth as David Bannon (Jurgen Prochnow), a mysterious traveling teacher of ancient languages who rents a Venice, California garage apartment from Abby and her husband Russell (Michael Biehn). Prochnow (Das Boot, The English Patient) puts on such a convincing performance as Christ it's very easy to believe he is indeed the Messiah returned to the present to unleash the wrath of God as he breaks the seals of the Seven Signs. An ethereal musical score by Jack Nitzsche helps set an eerie mood as the plot moves rapidly to a startling and uplifting Judgment Day conclusion. This is one worth watching again and again.

Summary: Intellegent and Complex Thriller
Review: An unusual plot helps to sustain the suspense in this thriller which draws heavily from religious prophecies both real and Hollywood based. The three central characters played by Demi Moore, Jurgen Prochnow and Peter Friedman interact in a mystery that goes back to the early Roman times. While the action proceeds in the present, we witness flashbacks that graduallly reveal the complex interrelationship of these characters. Overriding all is the question;"Will you die for him?" They each have their own agendas, which are craftily unfolded against a background of the "Seven Signs" that are to precede the end of the world. Prochnow plays the enigmatic stranger who is present at each sign. However, is the he the cause or merely a witness. Is he a good or malevolent force? Moore plays a pregnant housewife who races to solve the puzzle only to find that she and her unborn child are at the core. Friedman plays Fr. Lucas, a Roman Catholic priest charged with investigating the signs. It becomes increasingly apparent that he has his own startling motives. Each character evolves far beyond the initial impression. While the signs, all involve horrible violence I particularly like the fact that the movie reveals them as a result. You see the horror of a war without witnessing the acts of brutality. Michael Biehn leads a strong supporting cast as Moore's husband, an attorney racing to prevent an execution. It is a movie requiring a great deal of concentration since there are multiple plots and sub-plots, which at times may be cumbersome. The ending is both thought provoking and surprising - well worth the watching. Michele a. Thompson

Summary: Small film, apocalyptic premise
Review: Carl Schultz' "The Seventh Sign" is a very low-key affair, despite its apocalyptic premise (the impending birth of a young woman's unborn child threatens to unleash God's Final Judgment on the world), but it establishes and maintains a genuine sense of impending doom all the way from the opening scenes in Haiti and the Negev desert in Israel, to an uncompromising climax in the execution chamber of an American jail. It failed at the box-office, partly because it doesn't live up to its "Omen"-esque potential, and partly because it's simply too clever for mainstream acceptance. The dialogue is laden with resonant phrases and descriptions, and viewers will need to pay close attention to catch all the appropriate references, all of which have a bearing on the characters and their quest for moral redemption. A small masterpiece, ripe for rediscovery. This no-frills disc contains an anamorphic letterbox print of the film along with a full-screen edition, and the sound and picture quality is extraordinarily vivid, typical of Columbia Tristar's DVDs to date. Unfortunately, there's no trailer, which is particularly sad in this case because the trailer is actually ten times more exciting than the film itself!

Summary: Bring on the end of the world!
Review: Demi Moore (Abby Quinn), Michael Biehn (Russell Quinn)and Jürgen Prochnow(David Bannon) star in this end of the world apocolyptic thriller. It's an interesting movie about the possible end of time. A mysterious stranger (Jurgen Porchnow) is seen breaking a seal which unleashes the judgement predicted by the great prophet John in the book of Revelation. Disasters and strange happenings ensue and as he breaks more seals, it gets closer to the end. Abby Quinn (a very young and pregnant Demi Moore) is pregnant with a baby which could be connected with the events. Porchnow moves in upstairs with them and the mystery begins. Seventh Sign is a very good apocolyptic film, sure it takes some liberties but what film doesn't. I love movies that make people think and this one might just get you thinking about the meaning of your life. Very well written and acted. Rated R for very brief unsexual nudity and refreshingly free of foul language (except for 3 blasphemies). Thanks for reading.

Summary: The Bible Serves as Fodder for Head on Thriller
Review: Demi Moore plays Mary to Jurgen Prochnow's Jesus in this dark and elaborately filmed psychological phenomenon. Married to Lawyer - Michael Biehn, Moore is a pregnant and depressed housewife/artist who is thrust into a Biblical nightmare beyond her wildest imaginings. As Prochnow's character breaks each of the "seven seals", the worst of God's punishments is visited upon mankind. How can Moore, in her state of depression lift herself above the fray and overcome the power of the Seventh Sign?

Summary: Movie that you can't wait to see again with a loved one!
Review: Don't you cherish finding a superb movie that is mostly unknown? I do. This movie is one of those rare gems. It's a love story, but much grander. It's a mystery that once unraveled haunts with proverbial poignancy. It's a story of biblical magnitude. More than anything, it's a story of hope.
