Rating: Summary: Not a HAPPY movie Review: End of Days is very dark and spooky. The only thing it has to show for is its amazing special effects. Other than that renting it would be a waste of time.
Rating: Summary: Just B-A-D! So why give it three stars? Review: I give the film three stars for Gabriel Byrne. He's the person who keeps the film going, even at it's REAL bad points. He gives us a believable performance as Satan and is a pretty cool one, too: "...you don't want to see me mad..." Arnold obviously thought this was a good ol' action film to come back to -- but it wasn't an action film. It was a cheap 'end-of-the-millenium-what's-gonna-happen?' film that is SO unbelievable, it's almost not worth watching. Rent, don't buy it. And if you do rent it, rent it for Gabriel Byrne.
Rating: Summary: Not The Best Arnold Movie, But Definitely Worth Watching Review: I cannot understand the bad reviews for this film! Sure, this isn't one of the best movies ever made, nor is it one of Schwarzenegger's best films, but I still liked it-it was better than okay. Be warned however; this film is INTENSE and not for children, with references to and images of Satanism, representatives of a fringe group of Catholics trying to pin a girl down in order to stab and kill her, the devil having sex with 2 women, and some awfully gruesome murders. A previous reviewer gave away the ending for this film (Thanks alot for ruining it for me, whoever you are) so I won't give it away again. I rented it with the worst expectations possible, and was surprised to discover that I liked it. Not something that I would want to buy or see more than once but I enjoyed it! Better than "Eraser", "Last Action Hero" "Batman And Robin" (but what wasn't better than that stinker?) and some of Schwarzenegger's earlier films, but not as good as "T2" or "True Lies". I don't know what else to write, without giving too much away.
Rating: Summary: Bear witness to the end of days. Review: In 1999 , a prophecy is fortold that the dark angel is loose from his prison.But leave it to the hero to challenge satan.In the ultimate war of good vrs evil.A very rugged Arnold who is battling personal problems diffrent than anything hes ever done,but a lack luster script and formula action kills this movie off.Good options but you don't just get a movie for the options just not one of his best but a fun movie to watch rent it don't buy it.
Rating: Summary: Another Formulaic Ahhnuld Movie Review: After losing $7 and two hours of my life seeing this at the theatre it is time to get petty revenge/vent. This movie contains another typical "action" plot that is predictable and full of dull characters. This can be balanced out with great action which this movies lacks. The acting is...well nevermind. The dialogue is unintentionally funny, but that does not justify owning this movie. The real tragedy here is Gabriel Byrne, who is the man, in a horrid movie. If you really NEED to see a supernatural type of movie see The Sixth Sense again or take a nap. To sum it up over the hill action hero, bad script, no action, good trailer and marketing= every bad HOLLYWOOD movie. On the plus side the explosions sound good.
Rating: Summary: ARNOLD Review: I thought it was a very good movie along the lines of The Exorcist, so if you liked Exorcist you would like End of Days.
Rating: Summary: Not much of a Comeback Review: After a two year hiatus and the disasterous "Batman & Robin", Arnold Schwarzenegger tries to recover his action star status with the actioner "End of Days". While investigating a strange assasination attempt, an over-the-hill bodyguard (Schwarzenegger) uncovers a strange and sinister plot and must protect a young girl from Satan himself. The movie wasn't much of a comeback for Schwarzenegger. The story was weak and the ending was disappointing. Some good special effects and a few decent action sequences can't compensate for the movie's downpoints. Overall, the movie gets a "D".
Rating: Summary: Ok.....let's buy it & offer it to our beloved mother-in-law Review: What a piece of garbage this was, I'm glad I didn't go to the theater. Not even the action sequences are at least, of the same level of ones in other Arnold's movies. Rent it if you can, cause it doesn't worth the money it costs buying it.
Rating: Summary: End of Days May Reflect End of Arnold's Career? Review: This is one of the second worst Arnold movie I have ever seen - the worst being "Last action hero". Messy, senseless, illogical plot and gratuitous violence are major disappointments. Arnold has not put out quality film since T2 and True Lies. Don't bother with renting this film - just wait until it show up on HBO or Cinemax.
Rating: Summary: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ Review: When this film came out I thought great. I always been an Arnold fan, but boy was I wrong. I wasted 6.50 on a real sleaper. The only guy who made the movie ok enough not to snore in the theater was the guy who played satan. From the numerous things that made this movie sad was the Bible ignorance. The taking out of scriptures was real bad.
