The
People's Review of The Omega Code

I am a Christian, and I was expecting a great movie based on the last days
that kept me on the edge of my seat, but the only thing keeping me on the
edge of my seat, was waiting on something exciting to happen. Some events
from this movie were taken from revelation, but some of the most important
things were taken out, like the mark of the beast, things like that. I kept
waiting and waiting for the movie to get good, and then the end came and i
was left with my jaw hanging open. The movie left out so much, and it wasn't
really thrilling at all! It is really based on Stone and Lane, not the world
itself. I am sorry, but this is ONE borrring movie.

The Omega Code was a great break-through for the Christian world. It
allowed us to feel a since of hope in the industry that Satan has used to
feel the hearts and minds of people with so much deception. It is a
fresh start for the dawning of a new era in Hollywood.

comments = DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME!!! Can someone please let me give a
minus score for this time thief they call a movie?? My advice: wait
for Left Behind. Or better yet, buy it from John Hagee's ministries
before it hits theaters. I just saw it at my church tonight and all I
can say it: Wow! The Omega Code doesn't even compare to this moive...the
acting, special effects, and storyline were all much more plausible.
The main villain, Carpathia, could have used a better actor -- but otherwise
Left Behind is sure to be a smash hit. Recommend it to all your
friends. Pay for your unsaved friends to see it. But -- above
all -- don't waste any money on Omega Code. It's the worst of the
worst for 1999.

My husband and I rented it. He's still downstairs watching it, but I
had it after a very painful 1/2 hour. I thought I'd log on to the net
and see how others felt about it. I'm glad to see I'm in good company.
The acting sucks, the dialogue sucks, there is nothing about this movie to
keep my interest. The scene with the killer klown was hardly original.
All they needed was a good Apple laptop, not that room of computers that
vaguely reminded me of where my father worked in the late 70's. Ugh!

This movie saddened me not only because I wasted a couple hours of my life
and a $1.50 but because I was hoping it would show Hollywood that a
"good" movie can be made without sex, violence, bad language, and
pertain to Christ. Instead, I think it did the total opposite which is sad
since I think a decent movie like that can be made. I mean this was
the worst movie I've ever seen, for most bad movies I can say at least the
special effects were good, etc but not this one. For those of you who
say it's good because at least it gets people to think about Christ, etc,
you must understand that people (especially non-Christians) are not going to
take a movie this awful seriously and it will just give them another reason
to stay an unbeliever...

This movie was a great movie it shows how the devil could trick you in
life and I don't think they had lap top computers on bombs back then!!! I
rate this movie 30 points

The Omega Code is
one to watch, if for no other reason than to see that the Bible offers Thrills, Chills,
Action and Adventure. And. . . you just might learn something!!!

To start, this
film looked like a bad CBS special. I think that TBN needs to read the bible and not
these bible codes. I know they had a low budget, but they could of at least had a
better plot. This movie showed the end times of the bible like ABC showed the Noah
store. Next time TBN need to have a good plot before they even try to make a movie.

A must see movie
for all Christians and especially the non-religious world. Fictional based on
Biblical facts move with thrills for everyone Keeps you on the edge of your seats to what
happens next.

The special
effects and script were great as were the main actors. Unfortunately the discrepancy
between the main actors and the others was great and the action could have been more
consistent. It is an intriguing movie that will cause you to ask questions about the Bible
and the Book of Revelation

More films must
be made of and from the Bible. People must be show what is in the Bible since so
many people fear reading it.

I go to the
movies to see a flick only if I'm convinced the entire package warrants the effort over
waiting on the video. The Omega Code had a uniqueness of plot and surprises that are
seldom seen. I found it riveting, not wanting to even go out for additional snacks. And
the amazing thing is neither did anyone else in the theatre I was in.

This was worst
movie I have ever seen. I should have left before it wasted even more of my
time. The dialogue was contrived, the lines delivered horribly, and the story
completely crappy. The futile attempts at special effects only served to make the
movie seem even more imbecilic than it already was. If I knew how horrible it was I
would not have gone to see it unless they paid me twice my regular salary to sit through
it.

One of the worst movies I have sceen in a long time. Cool story that could have been
great, but the movie was horrible. It was filled with cheese and poor movie rip offs, such
as indiana jones.

I thought it got off to a good start (though the scene on Oxenburg's TV show was a bit
cheesy), but the plot became rather nebulous toward the end. I left the theater thinking,
"Uh, what happened exactly?" For the most part, I thought the acting fit the
film. Unfortunatly, as is often the case these days, logical character & story
development was lost to keeping the film fast paced enough keep the interest of modern
Americans. The viewer must fill in a lot of blanks. I enjoyed this film, and liked the
landscapes - it was apparently shot on location in Rome and Israel? However, the story
might stand a bit of fine tuning.

This is a great movie! The filming, the effects, the sound are all excellent
quality. It takes a controversial subject and presents it in a believable context.
No profanity, no nudity, no extreme gore and still a powerful impact.
Hollywood, take notice!

E for effort, but a disappointment. I thought the movie to be very fragmented and had I
not had any Bibical knowledge, I would have been completely lost. If nothing else, perhaps
it "might" feed a persons curiosity enough to open the Bible and search for the
link between "Daniel and the Revelation." At least we can hope!

Oh My God. This is easily in the competition for the *worst* film I have ever seen.
I laughed. I cried. I cried out in pain. Awful. I can't even
begin. The bit with the clowns. I was in tears at the absolute horror of
actually filming that scene. The car chase scenes where they crash cars from the
70's, the supercomputer room where they're still using reel-to-reel tape computers.
If I didn't know they were serious, I'd think the movie was a parody. Horrid.
Absolutely horrid. The scene where he asks Jesus to save him is almost as
ingenuine as the scene in one of the Rocky movies where the Russians start cheering for
him. This is the book of revalations for stupid people. A disgusting amalgam of the
movie "Pi", A mid-80's B-movie, and Logan's Run. The degree to which this
two hour monstrosity drags on is astounding. After half an hour, you'll think you
can take it. It might even be humorous. After an hour, the horror starts sinking in.
After an hour and a half, you'll be begging for mercy. It's really sad. They
seem to have built pauses into the movie so that they can easily chop it up into a
half-hour miniseries format.

Our theaters were sold out Friday night, we went back Saturday and evidently so did many
others we saw there. We are very pleased to see a movie with a message like this and
would hope for a sequel. The only ones offended, seem to be those not READY FOR THE
END!

I liked the movie theme but the problem with the film was that it lacked clarity and
proper interpretation of the gospel. To me, it felt somewhat out of context(biblically)
and it lacked detail to the movie, and quality of acting(except for Stone Alexander
character).

I only watch movies for story, and I found this story to be intriquing, with lots of plot
twists. The first three and a half years of the Tribulation were good. The
problem I had was with the second three and a half years of the Trib, or should I say, the
lack of it. Perhaps they should have ended it in the middle of the Tribualtion
without tacking on that contrived, Hollywood ending. Hal Lindsey, why didn't you
stop them????
Curious
Wasn't the Stone Alexander character played by second actor at a critical place in the
plot? I wished I could have rerun the film and checked. Wierd!

I wanted to like this movie but I was sadly disappointed. The script was AWFUL!
Too many of the symbolic references were completely over the heads of the mostly
teenage audience. I was relieved to know my Sunday School class had not gone to see
it. I suspect the people who created this monster have no idea what they were trying
to achieve. It seemed to be put together by committee. The result was not a meeting
of minds!

The movie started out a little slow and it wasnt the best acting for some characters but
overall it is worth seeing twice.... the message is put across nicely.

Even more pathetic than this wretched excuse for a "film" are the idiotic
examples of drivel posted here in its defense. If Paul and Jan Crouch really had
some kind of connection to the Almighty Creator, do you really think they'd be producing
such absolutely dreadful garbage? This movie is an abomination in the eyes of God,
and everyone involved should be burned at the stake. I'm serious.

It's not the worst movie I've seen, however, the dialogue, at times, seems forced. The
script takes major leaps to the point that one wonders "did I miss something?"
If you know the bible, don't go. If you are into mythology with a little truth mixed in,
you "may" enjoy it. All in all, a wasted opportunity, TBN. One fact this film
does establish: Michael York deserves more acting jobs!
Brad

This is a must see for anyone who is wondering if their Christianity has led them into
dishonesty. My honest opinion is that this was a terrible movie. I love the
Bible, I love the message in the Bible, but this movie wasn't a good vehicle for that
message. Still, if TBN wants to try again and do better, I'll support them and go
see the product, but I won't be dishonest about what I think.
