Wordiezett So much average
SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
John Doe This was another Arnold film I enjoyed that has good acting from Arnie and the rest of the cast. It has a good story too. Oh and the music is good.I give End of Days a 6/10
alfCycle This is a pretty awful movie. Lazy storytelling, ridiculous plot points, dated special effects, horribly obvious stunt doubles, questionable acting... all amount to a rather unpleasant viewing experience. ************SPOILERS************A few questions...Why the hell are they allowed to just hang around all those crime scenes? They're not cops. Aren't crime scenes supposed to be closed to the public? If the Satan dude just heals like Wolverine, why the hell did he hire the security team? Wouldn't that just attract unnecessary attention? Shouldn't he just be laying low until the magical bow chicka wow wow hour? Didn't seem that concerned with security for the rest of the movie...? Anyway, not much in the positive spectrum that I can say for this movie, other than a couple of funny Ahhhnold moments. Recommended for those that enjoy Satan!, Satan groping, Satan conjoined twin f**king, flammable Satan urine, old lady fighting, religious imagery, religious conspiracies, Jesus Christ Pose!, exploding cars, exploding vans, exploding buildings, exploding trains, exploding people, BatSatan!...3/10...but that's just like, my opinion, man# Of Times Watched: Once
ivo-cobra8 End of Days (1999) is the most very underrated and hated American action supernatural horror flick.Directed by Peter Hyams starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Gabriel Byrne, Robin Tunney, Kevin Pollak, Rod Steiger, CCH Pounder, and Udo Kier.I think End of Days (1999) is the most underrated Arnold Schwarzenegger film that is supernatural action horror flick. I prefer this film over Schwarzenegger new films Sabotage, Maggie and Terminator Genysis also those films are utter garbage of this days. Schwarzenegger can not make any good film this days, like he did by this one. I love this film to death. On millennium's eve 28th December a man must fight against the devil to prevent the end of the world and apocalypse on the New Year's Eve! Honestly? I think it is Schwarzenegger different action film than his classic action films were.The film's plot follows former New York Police Department detective Jericho Cane (Schwarzenegger), after saving a banker (Byrne) from an assassin, finds himself embroiled into a religious conflict, and must protect an innocent young woman (Tunney), who is unwittingly chosen by evil forces to conceive the Antichrist with Satan.This film isn't classic action movie like are Terminator 1 and 2, Predator, The Running Man, Total Recall and Commando. But it is still a good action film that I love and I will still watch it. This is the first Supernatural film with Arnold Schwarzenegger. This is a great movie.. even has some funny parts.. but Gabriel Byrne steals the show as 'The Man' .. a.k.a. The Devil. He is amazingly hot in this movie and actually had me rooting for the devil. I know I wouldn't run from him!!! All hell breaks loose when Arnold Schwarzenegger battles the ultimate evil in this chilling supernatural action thriller. When a burned-out former New York City cop named Jericho (Schwarzenegger) is assigned to security detail for a mysterious and foreboding stranger (Gabriel Byrne), Jericho thwarts an incredible assassination attempt. During the ensuing investigation, he and his partner (Kevin Pollak) save the life of the beautiful and terrified Christine York (Robin Tunney), whose destiny involves death, the devil and the fate of mankind. Now it's up to Jericho to save the girl, the world and his own soul as he comes face to face with his most powerful enemy ever! The movie pits Arnold Schwarzenegger against the devil (Gabriel Byrne), with director Peter Hyams delivering tense moments of action amid not-so-subtle choices for character development.There are forces here you couldn't possibly comprehend. Dialogue from "End of Days'' You can say that again. "End of Days'' opens with a priest gazing out his window at the Vatican City and seeing a comet arching above the moon like an eyebrow. He races to an old wooden box, snatches up a silver canister, pulls out an ancient scroll, unrolls it and sees--yes! A drawing of a comet arching above the moon like an eyebrow! For verily this is the dreaded celestial display known as the "Eye of God.'' The priest bursts into an inner chamber of the Vatican, where the pope sits surrounded by advisers. "The child will be born today!'' he gasps. Then we cut to "New York City, 1979'' and a live childbirth scene, including, of course, the obligatory command, "push!'' A baby girl is born, and a nurse takes the infant in its swaddling clothes and races to a basement room of the hospital, where the child is anointed with the blood of a freshly killed rattlesnake before being returned to the arms of its mother."Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms."Without even realizing it, suicidal skeptic Arnold Schwarzenegger sets out to fight the evil one head-on in "End of Days." Throughout the story, he resorts to a plethora of guns and firepower. He just didn't understand that spiritual warfare cannot be fought with guns. Not until the conclusion, when Arnold comes face to face with the knowledge that, without God he is useless, is he able to effectively battle Satan. In this I find redemption in "End of Days", and Biblical truth.End of Days is a 1999 supernatural thriller directed by Peter Hyams (The Presidio). Set at the end of the twentieth century, the film stars Arnold Schwarzenegger as Jericho Cane, a burnt-out private security specialist who finds himself protecting a young woman from a man who may embody the ultimate evil and then bring about the end of the world. The film prominently features several models of the Glock pistol, including one of the earliest appearances in a film of the Glock 34. The film's cast includes Gabriel Byrne, Kevin Pollak, Robin Tunney, and Rod Steiger. At the end of the century, Satan visits New York in search of a bride. It's up to an ex-cop who now runs an elite security outfit to stop him.10/10 Grade: A- Studio: Beacon Communications,Universal Pictures Starring: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Gabriel Byrne, Robin Tunney, Kevin Pollak, Rod Steiger, CCH Pounder, and Udo Kier.

kols Always been one of my favorite Schwartz movies and I've always wondered why. At best, it's a piece of meaningless fluff adding nothing to the cannon of any of it's genres (action, horror, Satan looking for an excuse for some fun). And, in many ways, it doesn't really make a lot of sense.Nor should it - it's an action movie. Except for their internal logic, no action movies make sense. The point is to get on the roller coaster and enjoy the ride.And that's where I finally figured it out - for me, at least, this is an iconic roller coaster ride. Just watched it on MAX and was a little shocked at how good an action movie it is; everything just worked, even the most ridiculous bends in physical reality (which, after all, are signature to the genre).For me, the movie just flowed, beginning to end, aided by one feature that it does not share with many movies, regardless of genre. It uses dialog only when absolutely necessary. For me, this is what raises it to the level of 'favorite'. I've always regarded film as a visual media and The End of Days tells it story visually, the script is secondary. This, by itself, endears me.All movies require some degree of Suspension of Disbelief and The End of Days is no exception but, given the usual Suspension given to action movies, it becomes a virtually flawless example of its kind and a hell of a good roller coaster ride.Likes and dislikes being what they are and being tied exclusively to the individual doing the liking or disliking, I'd simply recommend 'give it a try' within the parameters demanded by its genre. You might be surprised.
