End of Days: Wednesday  November 24, 1999

Jericho Cane (Arnold Schwarzenegger), a beaten down ex-cop, is the reluctant hero of "End of Days," a chilling, horrific thriller set at the cusp of the millennium. When the ultimate personification of evil is unleashed upon the world, Cane is unwittingly drawn into a heart-stopping supernatural game of cat and mouse. Now as the countdown to the end of days approaches, all that stands in the way of mankind's destruction is the salvation of one woman, whose fate comes to rest in Cane's shaky hands.© 1999 Universal Studios.

 The People's Review of End of Days

Dusitn
score = 70
This movie was all right.  I sort of expected more from it but overall it was okay.  The special effects were amazing and the storyline was unique but I found a little flaw in it.  If the death of Christina York meant mankind would be saved then why would Jericho want to save her and fight off the hundreds of people who wanted her dead and the Devil!  That was just something that got me thinking.  I enjoyed it except for a few things.  I didn't like some of the religious bashing that the Devil makes in the movie and toward the end before the big battle with the Devil, the story kind of falls apart and it seems the movie tries to be all that by killing off a whole bunch of people.  It sort of turns into more of a slasher movie than the typical Arnold action thriller.  I saw the first few deaths and got freaked out but then later on I just thought "Oh, okay, more death.  Whatever."  But at the end I was at the edge of my seat and left the theater satisfied.  So I gave "End of Days" a 70.

Ben Henderson
score = 90
I found End of Days to be a compelling turn for Arnold Schwarzenegger.  He comes across not as the glib one line spouting action hero, but as a vulnerable, scared, lonely soul reluctantly thrown into the action.  Yes, the plot is sometimes choppy, and the scene with the priests getting ready to kill the heroine is downright silly, but this is a fine way to spend a few bucks at the video store.

If you are bothered by occult or satanic themes, stay away. It is a good vs evil film and full of the requisite scenes that you would expect in such a movie. I guess that poor Jo, the first critic, expected to be transformed, uplifted, and divinely moved by watching an Arnold flick. What were you expecting? Stick with the Merryl Streep (don't know if I spelled it right and don't care) sap that we know you love. To all else, it is full of action and you can leave your hankies at home. Effects are great. It is not groundbreaking stuff since that was born and died with The Exorcist. Only one can break the ground after all. It is a good two hours of high action, just remember that's what you're there for. If you want spiritual uplifting, read the Bible.

 

Jo 

score = None

This has to be the most revolting film that I have ever been coerced into seeing.  I don't know what the intent or purpose of this tripe could possibly be.  As far as I can see, it is an unfortunate reveling in the bloody moral entrails of a wasted species.  The attempt of the last moments of the movie to somehow turn this pointless bloodbath into something resembling a theme only made the falsity of the entire film stand out in sharper contrast. The pointless sexual theme seems nothing more than a bauble to attract those who could better get their pornography elsewhere.  The rest of the movie, however, is despicable.  It plays on the superstitions and deep fears of a shaky urban industrial society.  Any meaningful thought was washed thoroughly away by all the blood.  I have never been so disgusted in my life.

I found the movie to be sickening. I was excited to see the movie as I had heard so many good things about it, so when I got to attend the sneak I was very excited. In comparison to this movie I think that laundry soap makes better film. It stunk, was disgusting, the idea was good and the effects were marvelous, but the entire setup was garbage. The cast was made up of such good talent, and I was surprised at how awful the flick could be with such good actors. Sufficed to say I hated the movie and I wouldn't suggest it to my worst enemy, it would be too cruel.

I thought this was a great flick.  Some people that thought it was to bloody.  i thought it was in typical Arnold style.  Most of his action movies are like this.  Remember Predator?  Anyway I thought it was a very cool movie.

score = 90
I went to see arnold kick some  and he did.  but i came out thinking.  it was a good plot that worked on the fears of many people.  the action and special effects were phat as expected.  the besst suprise was the valid biblical implications that were made.  with out the ties to the bible the movie would have been cheapened to the likes of "the devil's advocate" but with them it makes an amazing movie.   it was a movie that could appeal to the person that wants to see some blood. but will be better appreciated be a well educated viewer who can understand the underlying biblical implications

 

David
score = 60

I've seen "The Omega Code", and while the special effects and acting are better in "End of Days", I was almost as disappointed in it as the "Code". It is being hyped as better in some ways than "The Sixth Sense", but that movie, with Willis, just blows this one out of the water. All in all, a big stretch of the imagination is required to enjoy the movie. Satan has considerably more trouble with Jericho than he has with anyone else, for no appreciable reason, other than Jericho is the star.

 

Matthew
score = 90
I liked the movie but there was a mistake in that the new millenium does not begin at the end of this year but instead after 2000.  Other than this single miscalculation I gave the film high marks because it was well made in great comparrison to past Schwarzeneger films such as Conan and the first Terminator movie.  In closing I'd like to make a comment on the part of Jo's criticisms on this page... BLOW ME!  I mean the film was nowhere near as bad as this guy is making it out to be so to him I give this message.  Also this person BG needs to take a course in grammar.       To many more great films ahead and to the writers who are creating them now I'd like to wish good luck!

This was the worst movie I have seen in a long time. Arnold should be ashamed of himself for even thinking this movie would work. The story was just garbage, If I was a catholic I would be outraged. I was more dissapointed in myself than the movie becouse I sat through the whole pile of crap.

Among all of Arnold's movies, this one is different. He is not so much the focus (like his other films) but plays a significant role in the outcome.  You don't normally see Arnold "slash" himself to save humanity.  Plus, it's got great special effects.  It's a unique film--definitely a must see!!!

 

Jason

The movies plot was good. It follows after alot of other movies lately though. IE.. Stigmata, Dogma. and other low budgets. The action in it couldn't be disputed. The blood shed, well it is an Arnold movie what else is new. The cast of charicters is what saved it. Go see it at a matinee you will like it alot more. Definetly not a movie to bring your girl friend to.

 

MovieKnight
score = 50
Let me save you $8.00. This movie is "Terminator" except Arnold is the goodguy and the Terminator is the Devil as played by Gabriel Burne. A lot of people are killed,a lot of things blow up. I know it is hard to believe that Arnold is in a movie like this (wink), but it is good to see him get back to his roots where he belongs. If he makes another comedy he might be on his way to B-Movies and then Super Market Openings. If your an Arnold fan, and nothing to do for 2 hours, knock yourself out!

Joel R Jordan

Arnold chose the wrong comeback vehicle. This film didn't have a shred of originality in it, and the lightning speed film editing is enough to drive you from the theatre in the first 10 minutes. Arnold gets  suddenly gets religion when he realizes that guns and ammo don't work. It became very silly and the by now, run of the mill computer graphics were disappointing. Universal heads have a lot of explaining to do on this garbage.

Victorio the Great

First off I'd like to say that I loved the movie! It was everything I expected and more, and in my book, that means it was a good movie. Before I saw it, I was expecting (well with Arnold as the main guy and all) a bloody plotless action movie, with no real meaning. Man was I suprised! It was awesome. It had an awesome plot, it kept me entertained, or at least horrified at some points, it had great music throughout the film that brought out its icky theme, it all just fit together perfectly to form a beautifully written and directed composistion of filth. And to those had had the nerve to critisize this movie as a "pointless bloodbath", sure it was gory, dark, lustful, and maybe even a little disgusting. But what would you expect in a movie about the devil??? I think it did a fine job of creating a very real Satan, and bringing all his evil it life. Throughout this movie, you could actually feel the evil. It was almost as if it seeped through the screen and ceased everyone in the theater. I think it was this feeling for two hours straight, that the people who gave this movie a bad review couldn't handle. This movie was meant to be gross, it was meant to be violent, it was meant to be gory, so how can you give it a bad reveiw for being that way?? If you don't want to see those kind of things, then don't go see a movie about the devil taking over the world, its as simple as that. As far as the lustful scene goes, I think it was an excellent way to illustrate Santan's moraless love of forbidden lust. I don't think it was just thrown in there as a little extra for horny teenagers. It had a definate purpose, and it made its point clear. Like I said, the movie ROCKED! and that's that.

 

Mark Huggins
score = 80
This would have been an outstanding movie if it was'nt an arnie flick. The mix of typical action fare and supernatural horror did not work well at all. The movie was at times extremelly visually disturbing ( the hovel where the "mad priest" lived, and that whole thing with the wriggling and squirming....souls I guess they were) actually, in my opinion made the movie that much better. The devil at the end of the movie was one of the creepiest things I've ever seen. Nice touch on foregoing the cliché of a red guy with horns.

MOST OF THOSE SILLY CRITICS DON'T UNDERSTAND THE TRUTH OR THE BIBLE SO SEEING MOVIES LIKE THIS JUST ISN'T THEIR CUP OF TEA. BUT AS FAR AS THE END OF DAYS, IT SOUNDS LIKE A WAKE UP CALL TO ME. IT WAS WELL PUT TOGETHER. I GIVE IT A 90%

I went to see this movie with a group of friends, quite an upset I thought it would be as I was looking forward to going and watching the new Bond movie.  Alas though, they dragged me in, sat me down, and in the state of which the movie made us, we laughed, we yelled, we had a great time.  The movie was excellent, very creative in special effects.  The whole plot of "Good vs Satan" was a good throw in, but yet it was also the main clique of the movie (DUH!) I am also quite sick of seeing people putting down the movie for being gross, sickening, and full of nudity.. because guess what, that is exactly how the Devil would work, and while I am indeed an Atheist, I found this movie to be the closest to any religious belief I have ever been around, besides, you can't tell me you didn't get a "biggie" when you saw Bryce come out of the bathroom, plop the woman's breast out in front of everybody, and start kissing her.. after all, public place passion is a high fantasy for most. To end it, I would highly recomend people to go see this movie, the only flaws I found in it were towards the end, there was only like.. 4 minutes left and Satan still wanted to bang the woman... I mean, come on, here she is, been having dreams of the man for years, and he lets her down by only lasting 30 seconds or so?    The second one was after Arnold had taken over.. or semi-taken over, and told her to run.. he stood there for a moment, had about 5 seconds left.. what does he do?  Throws himself on a sword.  If he could make himself do that, why couldn't he stand still for 5 seconds and stay alive?  HUH?

The question is how do you take a story that everyone knows the plot and ending and make it different and intresting?Since most people know the basis of this movie it was successful in being different than other films made with this theme.When the devil tells Arnold "When something good happens it's Gods will,When something bad happens, God works in strange ways."Anytime anyone questions God,some people get a little uptight,but that's what a good film does it provokes thought.Arnolds facial expressions and acting were the best he has done.The special effects were seamless.The fast paces and violent theme of the needed, after all they are making a film about the end of the world,and baby thats no walk in tha park.

KEPT ME ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT WTIH ONE FOOT LEADING TOWARDS THE EXIT TO THE BATHROOMS.  IT REFLECTS SOME OF THE RELIGIOUS CONCERNS APPEARING AT THE END OF THE MILLENIUM.  THE GRAPHICS WERE AWESOME.  THE ONLY RELIGION THAT I FELT WOULD BE OFFENDED WOULD BE SATANIC WORSHIPPERS, BECAUSE SATAN CERTAINLY SEEMS A HARD ONE TO PLEASE.  I THINK I WANT TO SEE IT AGAIN AND I'LL BUY THE VIDEO!! ITS GOOD TO SEE ARNOLD STILL MACHO STILL SEXY BUT HUMAN IN HIS CONFUSION.

I was really looking forward to seeing Arnold again in a movie.  Talk about DISAPPOINTED!  I don't like profanity and, even though other actors in Arnold's movies have spoken it, he never has.  But, that all changed with this movie, unfortunately!  Arnold said the "F" word FIVE times.  The movied didn't need the cursing, OR the nudity.  Could anybody have screwed up scripture more than this movie?  Only one would come to mind.  I was highly disappointed in Arnold, in the movie's portrayal of God's care for humans and in the fact that we spent $15.00 for tickets.  The only good thing was the special effects.  I love Arnold's movies, but not this one.  I left really disappointed -- I recommend this movie to no one.

I'm frustrated with people's rejection of pure fun. I have many academic degrees and want to "escape" at the movies. I don't want to analyze every detail. For me, this was an immensely enjoyable action flick. The special effects are enormous on the big screen, the subject matter is current and Arnold is at his best. Why do people see movies only to criticize most?

It was a cool movie if you're looking for action and special effects. It doesn't match "Matrix", but it's worth seeing. As far as the story line goes, I think you should see Rosemary's Child to see that.

I was not much impressed. Although the movie was alright, I guess I expected more since Arnold is my hero. I think the writers could have than more to make the film intriguing and thrilling. Personally, I would rather like to see Arnold as my all in one hero rather than he being potrayed as a repentant religious soldier of God. I want Arnold to be in absolute 100% control as the hero. Anyway for the sake of Arnold go see the movie for him not to be dissapointed but next time Arnold be critical before you accept to star in such a script. I believe you would be absolutely be BACK with somthiing BANGING. Wating for that day.

CLICHE....what else can you say about it? this movie sucked...the opening scene with Arnold as the burnt out suicidal cop(cliche), the ballerina scene(cliche), the family flashback scenes(cliche), and oh my goodness...the black cat in the fridge? what a cheap attempt to get a rise out of an audience!(cliche). The cat never would have survived, and what the **** was it doing in there in the first place?  And okay, what about the whole beginning where we're told only 2 beings have been chosen to bear Satan's son because of the celestial alignment of the planets...and these two beings are the only ones capable of having the child...so why were we supposed to be scared when Satan posessed Arnie, and tried impregnating the girl?  HELLLLLLLOOOOO....if you paid attention you know it couldn't work anyway! What a typical glossed over piece of Hollywood crap.

I think this movie proves a point to all of humanity.I mean,I see the movie makes some sense,exspeacially when the Priest says to Arnold,Satan's greatest outcome was to trick man into not beliving about him at all.Thats true,because many people dont belive in any of it,and when the time does come,and the end of days has come,everyone will learn,everyone will find out,about the chaos,the destruction,the hate,everything.God might help if this would all come out as expected,but he might not,for there are not enough belivers out there anyways.It is said,that at the End of Days,Only ones that belive in God,that are true belivers,will get his message,and that message is that everyone stays in their houses during New Years,and when Satan walks the earth,the ones that belive,they will survive,and the ones that dont,they will all regret this.Thats about all God himself can do,for it is Satans year at the End of Days,and he will be set free to roam the Earth,and nobofy will pay attention,everyone will be out partying,and thats fine.But it is true,the End of Days is coming,and this movie did prove a point,but there are not enough belivers in this world for mankind to survive,and thats,our weak point,thats,when it will come,that when Satan will strike,when everyone is preoccupied with their surroundings of the new millineum,well I cant do much for you all anyways,so good luck,and farewell to all.

It was a very good movie. It was made on real stuff saif in the Bible and is very good. It has very good action, and the religious aspect is good too. And to those two first reviews made yb "Jo" and "Joseph" I think the reviews were very wrong and they obviously didn't see the same movie I saw.

the sound effect was effective i would say... only the way it ended was a bit too obvious, so the effect isnt that great... the time when Arnold is tied up and Christine taken away by Satan, that part was really making people full of wonder of how hes gonna figt back the evil... which was good. the way how people r killed was even though sometimes a bit too disgusting but the way people r controlled by Satan and the way Satan kill people out of silence was good, like the guy in the bicycle, he was killed and all Satan did was one little subtle call...taht was really interesting

It was a really exciting movie, but the sexual scenes could have been omitted, along with a certain vulgar word used a few too many times, especially on the subway train. I would see the movie again, because of everything else; the special effects, the plot, even the actors and actresses. For those of you reading this, you might remember Tunney as the good witch (best witch) in the movie The Craft, and in End of Days, she has to stay away from a greater evil than wicca. Casting Byrne as "The Dark One" was fitting, because he didn't even look as demonic as the character he plays. And last but not least, with Schwarzenegger as the hero, you know the final battle comes down to who's stronger. If you haven't seen it yet, please don't listen to Jo and Joseph. I've learned from personal experience that movies that are shot down by critics are the best movies to see at the theater(and they sound like harsh critics).

I thought it was good. The thought of the devil using a body means the body can be destroyed  but not the soul. If the devil can't rule the earth without a body, there is a reason why he can't kill mortals with his original form. It was a good movie

 

Kate

A well crafted, intelligent thriller that sees Arnie at his rounded best.  He's got the muscles sure, but this time round we, finally, see him build around his character - perhaps the pained expressions, as he recalls his murdered family, were inspired by the rather unfortunate incident recently, involving the family dog. Gabriel Byrne also excells himself as the Prince of Darkness.  After seeing his outstanding performance in End of Days I am eagerly anticipating his role as a miracle researcher in Stigmata.   Satan has, undoubtabley, the best role in this masterpiece.  His quibs at God brought about cautious laughter from the audience, as his deliverance was as carefree as a child on a bouncy castle and the temptation to believe Satan was, once again, very hard to resist. My only disappointment however was that lowly Jericho was able to resist such an almighty force.  Tunney's line towards the end sums that one up; "Come on Jericho, you're stronger than him." I very much doubt that he would be.  A must see movie....Forget that Blair Witch crap, this had me scared.

What I think they should've had more scenes with Satan and Christina. I think it would have made the movie more powerful.  Plus a lot more scenes with Jericho and Satan.

You know this movie got so much publicity that it got most of its viewers from that. I went to go see "The Omega Code" so I could compare it to "End of Days" and I personally must say that even though the special effects were better on "End of Days' I have to say that "The Omega Code was better because the story was more well put and you know special effects don't always make a good film. So I rather prefer "The Omega Code."

Good special effects ruined by bad script, bad direction, and bad part for Big S.  Fails to make sense and, worse, fails to be campy enough to be fun (everyone is just too darn serious).  Watch Curse of the Demon instead -- one monster, grudgingly included at the behest of the studio, and one hell of a scary movie.

The scenario was very good,but the direction was "weak" and that affected negatively the actors(in some scenes).However Schwarzenegger and Byrne had some good moments.Anyway,it would have been better...

Damn good stuff!! If you didnt like this movie the first time, watch it again, not for the plot but for the action sequences. The train part at the end was awesome :) Where arnie blows away the two cops with the two pistols Chow Yun Fat style ;) And the helicopter rapelling at the beginning was great!!!! Who cares if it was unrealistc, all Arnie movies are just meant to be fun. It was also moving as well when arnie crys and you really feel for him. The sex parts were NOT needed.  Kevin Pollack was funny coming out with heaps of one liners. There were heaps of ways that it could have been made better but it is still woorth going to see if u are an arnie or action fan.

END OF DAYS is a kickass movie for the millenium. I saw it with a friend, and we were surprised how good it was. I think ARNOLD did a great job.[PRSONALLY]I think this was his best film he has been in. The director of this film deserves a Oscar for best film, and for best special effects. This movie is a wild ride that never stops. It keeps you on your toes every minute.

This was a wonderful movie for those who enjoy a suspenseful action movie with a twist of magic.  However, those with a weak stomach for blood should either not watch the movie, or eat popcorn and enjoy the soundtrack.  The special effects were marvelous, as is expected, and there is plenty of action (Schwarzenegger).  What surprised me was the suspense involved in the movie. Most of the "jumping" events were predictable, but still effective.  The props were elaborate, and the acting was fine.  I would say that the main critisims of the "normal" movie viewer include the blood involved, and Schwarzenegger's "superman" character.  If these aren't a problem for you, as a viewer, then go to the nearest video store and rent it!

This movie was good enough to have me squirming in my seat!  Much better than Stigmata!  Although some of the blood and gore scenes were pretty graphic.  Yuk!  Anyway, thank goodness to 'the masta' for mentioning Kevin Pollack, he's great! Arnold kicks and Gabriel was perfect!

Saw the film tonight.  Still in a daze.  Good actors, good acting, and good special effects.  BUT the movie was pure gore.  Since gore is not my thing I did not enjoy the movie.  I am a Bible buff and the movie did not even follow the Bible.  That would at least helped the movie in my opinion. At least then I could have no fault with it.  This was a movie to glorify evil, to be a spine tingling thriller, and to tap into horror.  I wonder if the producers used a Biblical theme just to get more people to see the movie. If they honestly wanted to portray the 1000 year rein of satan I wished they got the Bible facts straight.

First of all I have to say what is up with Arnold. I mean one minute he is the Terminator then he is a child loving kindegarten cop then back to a movie hero who puts cigars out on his hand, now he is a washed up cop. I mean HollyWood,pick this man a role. As for the movie, I gave it a 60,because of the cast.

I'M 18 YEARS OF AGE AND FROM ALL THE MOVIES THAT WERE IN THEATRES FROM WHEN I CAN REMEMBER I THINK THAT THIS MOVIE BLOWS THEM AWAY. ESPECIALLY THE "TITANIC". AS SOON AS IT COMES OUT FOR SALE, I'M GOING TO BUY IT. I TOLD PLENTY OF PEOPLE ABOUT THE MOVIE AND THEY CAN'T WAIT TO RENT IT ON VIDEO.

This is a worth seeing movie. For the simple reason its a Schwarzeneggar film. How many of us are not an Arnold fan? The first part of the film was so-so. But by the second half it picked up that action-Schwarzeneggar feel and we were back in happy land. All in all a good Arnold action flick but not a great movie. Its entertaining at the least.

I thought the movie was slow, good special effects, but, i did not like Arnolds acting, his character was stupid, but the movie makes you think at the end because this will happen,but only its not last year its this year. The action was great but, the movie is not that scary whaen you think about Arnold because look at the films hes done: The Terminator, Red Heat, Twins, The Running Man, Total Recall, Commando, Terminator-2, Jingle all the way, Batman & Robin, Raw Deal, Conan, and Predetor. I saw the commercial it said "more chilling than the Excercist" yeah right its not scarier than Head spinning thriller and the sixth senths, the sixth senths had better acting and more dramatic. Gabriel Byrns character was good, but its one of those flops of Arnold, im sure his next film THE SIXTH DAY will be better.

This is the best movie ever made, bar none.  Anyone who disagrees wouldn't know a good movie if one crawled up their leg and bit them on the ass. Arnold is a really cool actor (maybe the best in the world) and he can look stunned without little or no effort at all.  Arnold rules.  The girl, Robin Tunney, has got the cutest face of any woman who ever roamed this planet.  She is a complete stunner!  This movie has action, violence, gore...that is true. But above all it is a movie that young and old can enjoy on many levels.  The Exorcist is a piece of shit, but End of Days is a classic.  If you like it, you have great taste; if you don't, then keep your opinions to yourself, we don't need your kind here.
