Rating: Summary: Maybe Worth A Rental Review: He said he would be back.Arnold is back, and this time he is not battling other Terminators, but instead Satan himself. Who wins? Who do you think? End of Days is another film in the long line of supernatural films of which I think we all have just about had our fill. Arnold plays Jericho Cain who must protect a woman from being impregnated by Satan. Exciting, huh? Well, the real problem here is you will be bored through most of the movie. Sure, there are some nice action sequences, but none that will stick with after you have left the theatre (nothing as ground breaking as we saw in The Matrix). The characters are dull all except for Kevin Polluck's character who does have some good one liners. The real problem with this film is that you will get the "been here, done that" before feeling all the way through. I sure did. There was nothing original in this film to keep my interest. Plus, the film is long and drawn out. I go to an Arnold film to a) see him make a fool of himself (a la Kindergarten Cop) or b) see him kill a lot of people. He does neither here. As you can tell, I was just not really impressed with this film at all. Maybe worth a rental where you can talk during half of it while you are waiting for the next action sequence. Otherwise, save your money.
Rating: Summary: not worth buying Review: the movie doesn't have enough action until the end. the movie previews give the movie no justice. the previews were pretty much the best part of the movie. i only gave the movie 2 stars because the special effects near the end were good. the movie starts off good but goes way down hill until the end. so if you like to see Arnold get beat up and Arnold beating up then this is the movie for you.
Rating: Summary: Not an Oscar contender but a real good ""shoot "em up" Review: I'm not much of a writer or critic. I just like Arnold and his movies. I've seen him fight the mob, fight the Russians, etc., but fighting the devil is his "cup of tea." It was solid action from beginning to end, normal for Arnold movies. I found it both frightening and thought provoking. I am one of those folks who will buy it and watch it over and over again.
Rating: Summary: End of days.. for Arnold Review: I have seen the Omen.. the three parts of it.. u can call this one is a sequence to it.. but.. since there is another sequence to the Omen.. OMEN IV they changed the title of this movie.. i liked the general idea of it. but maybe it was implemented weakly.. arnold made a good work.. just like the old days.. but the old days were different he needs to take another look at the kinda movies he is doin since the solo hero is no longer liked for the audience i believe... Robin was great.. i always liked her since the craft and wished to c more of her works.. but she hasn't got alot... gabriel is alright.. this movie for sure will not have a sequence in the year 2999.. hopefully.. but for those who liked the Omen might waste 90 min on this... Goodbye Arnold, c u in the next century
Rating: Summary: This movie was really bad... Review: Sorry, but I thought this movie was horrible. Only two other movies are on my list for horrible movies, and this is one of them. Schwarzenegger was completely mis-cast in this movie. The acting was horrible. I can't believe Gabriel Byrne wasted his time on this movie. Save your money and spend it on Stigmata. It is a much better movie...
Rating: Summary: Very disappointing... Review: I'm a huge Arnold fan, but what a disappointment. Barely even good enough for a rental. If you have absolutely nothing else to do, you've read everything in the house and a friend just happens to stop by with this movie in hand, sure, go ahead and watch it. But it's not worth going out of your way. Sorry Arnold. You should have left this one for Steven Segal.
Rating: Summary: Pretty good Arnold movie Review: This is Arnold's best movie in the past two years. While I thought Eraser was decent, Batman and Robin just stunk. So Arnold comes out with this movie called "End of Days." While I was intrigued by the previews, I didn't get my hopes up. Well, let's see. First the story of the film. I don't care how many of you say that the story is horrible. Personally, I think that there's a great story within this film. Arnold plays a suicidal cop named Jericho Caine. After a banker was shot at by a hitman at the top of a building, Jericho goes on a chase after him. It's found out that this man is a priest who tells Jericho of the "End of Days." The devil is back and ready for some loving. Arnolds performance in this movie is excellent. It's actually a very different role for the man, and he does it with his natural flair and style. The rest of the actors are also very good and I have yet to see a flaw in any of their performances. The music in the movie is haunting and just perfect for this sort of movie. The score has the ability to creep you out even in the most tame scenes of the movie. An extremely well done musical factor in the movie. The DVD extra features are extremely plentyful and are definitely your money's worth. I still can't get enough of Everlast's "So Long" music video (included in the extras) which is only availible on that DVD. Now, this movie isn't without it's flaws. Most of it is in story, but I can't really say them without giving the movie away. Also, I don't enjoy all the references to the millenium, which just continually add to the cheese factor of the story already established by some of the scenes. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't buy this movie just because of that. The ending is excellent and the whole movie is just extremely haunting. No, it's not a scary movie. It's more like "The Sixth Sense" on steroids. The DVD is definitely worth the money for the excellent sound and video quality. This will be one of my favorite Arnold movies to date, next to T2 and True Lies.
Rating: Summary: END OF DAYS! Review: I don't care what anyone says, I loved this movie. It was great to see Arnie back to form and fighting fit, after some very how can I say it awful films (Junior). The whole feel of the movie was dark and moody, which work very well. I must say I was put off eatting pizza.
Rating: Summary: Scary Review: I rented, this a week ago it scared me, man but it's good, I liked, some parts but good..... If you like horror, filma this is the one you, should watch!
Rating: Summary: Not what I expected, but better than I expected! Review: End of Days looked like a silly horror with Arnie trying to make a good comeback. But I was sort of wrong, I didn't totally enjoy this flick, it was a bit silly really, but a fun and sexy horror film away. The acting is absolutely terrible, but it is one of those lame movies that keeps you wrapped around its finger. Not only do we see the return of Arnold, but The Craft's Robin Tunney appears again to play a mentally challenged young lady who gets treated badly by the devil himself. Of course, Arnie comes to the rescue, but then he realizes he must take on Satan himself. End of Days is not exactly as good as I expected, or not like what I expected, but the film is good for those Arnie fans who want a wild rollercoaster ride!
