Rating: Summary: My warning Review: I'm not going to get into whether it's accurate or not. I just wanted to warn people that it's probably the worst movie I've seen in 15 years. The worst directing, worst music, worst special effects, worst acting... you get the idea. I couldn't even stand to watch more that about half because it was so bad. My two cents worth.
Rating: Summary: I've seen 1 good Christian movie. But it's not this. Review: The one good Christian movie I have seen is "The Moment After." I suggest any youth pastor to buy it. It's a good little flick. Okay, to "The Omega Code." I support TBN & I love Christ with every part of soul (although I could be a better Chrisitan) & I have a passion for movies. As an 18 yr old I would love to direct movies with Christian themes. But I will never make a piece of trash like this. Is it Chrisitan, sure. But the acting is some of the worst I have ever seen. Pet birds go to the restroom on better stuff than this screenplay. And the directing is sub par at best. Christian film needs to stop trying to be a blockbuster. We don't have the money to be a blockbuster. Christian film needs to make dramas that cause people to think about their beliefs & faith. And we have to stop preaching to the crowd. Instead make films that people think about their spirit & also have smart scripts and good acting from indie actors. Christian films need to make movies about life. And make them real & not sugar coated church flicks. It's the only way to really get people to come to the movies and see Christian film.
Rating: Summary: pass the pain killer to watch this one Review: the most predictable movie you may ever see. I actually finished the movie wasting two hours that I couldv'e spent watching christian news hour and actually been more interested if that's possible.
Rating: Summary: Bad acting Review: I had heard from some friends that this movie was great but the acting and screen play was so poor we had to turn it off. It was boring, laughable and hokey. I am a Christian and active in drama in the church. It is extremely disappointing to me that I haven't seen any quality Christian movies. I am hoping the new Left Behind movie will be good.
Rating: Summary: WOW! What a load of dawg doo doo! Review: What a shame for this movie. I was completely and utterly annoyed from beginning to end with this film. You would think after all these years of seeing cheesy movies like "A thief in the night" and "The late great planet earth" we would be treated to a quality, realistic account of a great story, awesome special effects and first rate actors. Instead (with the exception of Michael York) we are hit with lousy actors like Casper Van Dien and that blonde chick who do absolutely nothing but run around the sets with perfect hair, waving their arms from side to side looking like a bunch of chickens. I hated this movie! Forget the so-called message. The message gets completely lost at the end and that cheesy ray-gun-looking special effect at the end signifying God's second coming looks like something out of Xanadu and that movie was far more entertaining! This movie spends too much time trying to look good. It simply tries too hard to be like every other movie. When are Christians going to start innovating things? First it was the Christian rock movement of the eighties that tried to be so much like the Top 40 guys and now they're doin it with movies. Give me a break! Enough already.
Rating: Summary: Good Intentions Review: I had to see this movie after reading the reviews here. The worse the review, the funnier they were. I knew I would either hate this movie or love it. Surprisingly, it was neither.This movie is not that bad, but not great either. You can tell they had an ample budget. Its not a cheap looking movie, and the acting is good too. I don't agree with many reviewers who thought Casper Van Dien's acting was terrible. What I didn't care for was his over-the-top, "Tony Robbins" type behavior at the beginning of the movie. It was too manic, and a big turn off. If we are supposed to care about this guy, that is not a great way to introduce him to us. Michael York was a great villain. He's an accomplished and respected actor, and brings class to most anything he is involved with. I can't fault the acting of any of the actors, but the plot could be confusing at times. This movie could have been great, but it wasn't. I give credit for its message that good overcomes evil, even though the message is almost hidden in the special effects and confusing plot.
Rating: Summary: A Millennium Thriller with a unique plot twist Review: Definately an accurate and well-researched Biblical Thriller, as well as a well exceuted Millennium Thriller with a unique plot twist and shocking, if not unexpected ending that takes the viewer by surprise. I know I was surprised by the ending of the film myself. With an astounding cast that consists of Sir Michael York, Michael Ironside, Casper Van Dien, Catherine Oxenburg, Jan Triska, Devon Odessa, george Coe, and others, the omega Code is a suspense thriller about an event that was predicted in the Bible. An event that involves information in the Holy Bible about the future. Foretelling events that lead to the end of the world. The apocalyptic Book of Daniel and The Book Of Revelation are said to predict that "he who controls Jerusalem in the final days" will control the world. And how someone, with the latest use of technology is able to untangle these prophecies, and break the code, enabling him or her to learn the future of our history? A suspense thriller about those intangible secrets and hidden messages is what The Omega Code is all about, as well as the fight to control the world before the end of days. It is a superb film that came out at the right time. The acting is superb, and the plot, special effects, music, and otherwise, explosive. Definately the sleeper hit of the millennium. If you are hyped on the millennium and all its madness, then this film is for you.
Rating: Summary: Consider the truth..... Review: As understood, the budget for this film was that of around $7 million. That considered, the production value is tremendous. The story is actually based upon a well known phenomena called the Bible Code which has been covered extensively in the media over the past few years. Granted, refinenment is needed and the biblical accuracy is not perfect, however the spirit of the movie reveals the greatest truth in the universe. The reality that Jesus Christ is the saviour of the world!
Rating: Summary: Halfway OK Review: Well, it wasn't as bad as I thought. The acting was often questionable, but Michael York seemed perfectly at ease as a supervillain. Sure, there were some plot holes you could fall right into, and the ending was definitely abrupt. On the up side, there was nothing that could be construed as Christian pontificating, and there were enough explosions, fast editing, visions, shootings, and car crashes to keep you awake. I don't expect family friendly Christian films to be exciting or...good...but this was at least entertaining.
Rating: Summary: omega code Review: I thought that the omega code whas a prety good movie. The storie and idea of the movie keeps you thinking the hole time. It starts out slow with a man getting killed then slowly starts to get exiting. The Movie makes you think,if suff could realy happen like that.over all I think the movie is worth seeing
