Review of End of Days (1999) by Jeffrey L — 15 Sep 2008
This movie has Arnold Schwarzenergger going against Satan himself. Yes, he really is THAT bad ass.
This is the movie you'd get, if The Omen mated with pretty much any Schwarzenergger action movie, and had a kid.
It has the perfect blend of classic mindless Arnold action, with creepy religious horror, with some of the best music I've ever heard in a movie, as it sets the tone so perfectly. I also thought the end was pretty unpredictable too, which is rare these days.
What I didn't like though, was knowing every single thing about the movie, plot-wise, within the first 5 minutes by having them spill it out for us right away. It would have been nice to have some mystery about it all and discover the info as Arnold's character does, bit-by-bit throughout the movie. But other then that minor gripe, I found myself enjoying this movie quite a lot.
Also, the effects for Satan in his demon form at the end were KICK ASS beyond words.
