Rating: Summary: ACK!!! Avoid this movie!! Review: Good greif what a bad movie. Cheesy special effects, really bad dialogue and horrible acting. If you want to see a better end of the world movie, get The 7th Sign with Demi Moore. I will say one thing about the movie, it was better than Supernova...but not by much...
Rating: Summary: Not that bad... Review: Critics who caustically berate this "ambitious" effort with its manifestly limited budget might recall the injunction: JUDGE NOT...LESS YE BE JUDGED. The fact is, it's not a bad try...particularly in light of the drivel Hollywood shilled-out this summer. Michael York provides sufficiently ruthless, charismatic menace as Stone Alexander, THE MAN of SIN, to provoke one's attention in this TRIBULATION thriller. See OMEGA CODE 2: MEGIDDO. The stakes are raised (the budget too...$22 million!)and the Anti-Christ meets his match in an INDEPENDENCE DAY Armageddon finale worthy of a 007 spectacular rather than an OMEN reprise.
Rating: Summary: The best Christian Apocalyptic Movie EVER! Review: If you are like me and was disappointed with Left Behind: The Movie, then you will really enjoy this intense thriller. The movie is basically what Arnold Schwarzenegger's "End of Days" was about without the language and graphic content. Buy this movie and if you enjoy this one then go see "Megiddo: The Omega Code 2".
Rating: Summary: Very Interesting Movie the second one Will top this one Review: Very good movie and it tells you what could very well happen. Need to be open to this and not have a closed mind to the possibility that this is far fetched and will not happen it could no one knows in my opinion. All in all I liked this movie.
Rating: Summary: Phase One Review: This movie is ideal for the spiritually enlightened. True, the context may be difficult for both the novice and the unbeliever, but the general idea of God's purpose for mankind's redemption, the prelude to the Rapture, and the story of the book of Revelation is given life, in this format. "The Omega Code" is a must see family film, that will inspire all age groups to look into the topics that have been presented.
Rating: Summary: HOLY COW! Review: I just have to blow off some steam here. This movie is the WORST, most POORLY WRITTEN movie of 1999. The sole computer effect seems to be a building blowing up in quasi-slow motion (it's obviously a model.) Satan, when he FINALLY shows up, looks like a Gumbyfied dog in heat. And the dialogue...I won't even go there. The only people who'll like this movie are Christians who have lost all sense of art and goodness and care only to put more people on their resume. I'm a Christian myself, and I can tell you: disregard all other reviews. This film somewhat resembles the Book of Revelation, but it blows everything out of proportion, virtually skips Armaggedon, says empathetically that the world will end in 2000 (hey, everybody...it didn't!), etc., etc. I don't know if Christ would even like this movie. Avoid it.
Rating: Summary: TBN needs to quit doing this. Review: I am a Christian. I also don't like this movie. I think that this is just an attempt by the ever burgeoning Trinity Broadcasting Network to expand their influence into secular society. If this indeed was a film for Christians, or to convert people then leave it at that. Quit vieing for an academy award. Hey I'll be the first to admit that Christians, in terms of entertainment, have always had secondhand stuff. Mostly because the producers and performers never had enough money to do anything of descent quality. I think in terms of production quality and acting that it is much better than some of its predecessors like ""A Thief in the Night", or "Image of the Beast". But for the scare conversion factor those films were overwhelmingly better than this one. I think the trinity broadcasting network should take a lesson from the bible on this. That lesson - when Jesus triumphantly entered Jerusalem it was on one of the most lowly forms of transportation - not a Rolls Royce.
Rating: Summary: At least it has Michael York Review: This movie is horrid, but not enough to stand as fun on that. The script is rather pallid. The acting is vanilla (I still like Michael York, though). The only redeeming parts of this movie are the unintentionally funny parts, such as the Hassidic secret agents and the cases of Deus Ex Machina. Two counts of Deus Ex Machina, one of which is almost literally Deus Ex Machina (although it does make sense in the movie)and one of which is a painfully badly written sequence. Enjoy.
Rating: Summary: Another good end-of-the-world type movie! Review: I really liked the tie-in with the Bible Code in this movie. The storyline is based on the Bible as well (nothing wrong with that -- remember The Ten Commandments?). All in all, it was an intriguing interpretation of Biblical prophecies, combined with modern scenarios, to create a fairly plausible 'what if' adventure.
Rating: Summary: OMEGA!!!! Review: Oh yeah! This one was awe-inspiring and had me at the edge of my seat the whole time. The anti-christ was truly evil and the good was truly good and prevailed. What a remarkable story combining elements of the bible code and the end times. What a thriller!
