Listen, it's been more than a decade and we don't get movies like this anymore. The movie is dark, doesn't pull it's punches, full of action, VFX sort of holds up. Violence and gore is just the right amount.

I don't know what else to say, it's Arnold vs Satan and it delivers. Arnie gives his best performance of career and other characters don't really matter. Satan is all powerful but in meat body.

Sadly not many people are watching this and it's not popular on Netflix or prime. I had a blast on a weekend watching this with beer and fried chicken. You can do that too!

I liked this film.it's sort of in a similar vein as the original The Omen(1976)and it has a fair amount of thrilling scenes.there's lots of action.the acting is good all around. Arnold Schwarzenegger stars ,with Robin Tunney and Kevin Pollock.Gabriel Byrne who also starred in Stigmata the same year,is in this film as well.the rest of the supporting cast is also very good.for me,this supernatural thriller is exactly that.it's very thrilling and dark,although there are some amusing bits to to release the tension.if you like this movie,i would recommend the original Omen(1976)and the remake (2006 for me,End of Days is a 7/10

End of Days is a good movie with a very different storyline and a good cast,with a very strong performance from the always brilliant Arnold Schwarzenegger.I expected this movie to be an action packed movie with an Armageddon type of theme to it,and I wasn't disappointed,but I really didn't expect it to be scary,there are actually some very frightening scenes in this movie,mainly any of Gabriel Byrne's scenes,and its a lot scarier than some of the ridiculous horror movie you would see today that aren't at all frightening.The movie is very unpredictable,and I was surprised it got such bad reviews,I really enjoyed it,it certainly wasn't perfect,but it didn't deserve any Razzie nominations.Arnold Schwarzenegger did a fantastic performance,Gabriel Byrne was very creepy and believable,and Peter Hyams did a great job directing this movie,it looked beautiful,none of them deserved Razzie nominations.Its certainly not Arnold Schwarzenegger's finest film,but fans of the actor will get a great kick out of this movie.

As the world reaches the year 2000,the Devil (Gabriel Byrne) is in search of Christine York (Robin Tunney) to make her his bride,its not up to police officer Jericho Cane (Arnold Schwarzengger) to keep her safe.

The 1999 movie "End of Days" from writer Andrew W. Marlowe and director Peter Hyams is definitely a noteworthy addition to Arnold Schwarzenegger's impressive movie career, especially since it is a nice change of genre for the action star.

Oddly enough, I think I've only seen "End of Days" three times since 1999, with the most recent being just now here in 2022. But I will say that this movie is very enjoyable and entertaining, and I like that there is much more to the storyline than just having Arnold beat up a bunch of henchmen while getting to the final showdown against whomever wronged him at the end of the movie. So thumbs up to writer Andrew W. Marlowe for the script and storyline in "End of Days". You should keep in mind that this movie is heavy set with a religious theme, just as a heads up.

Visually then "End of Days" is a good movie, lots of great special effects, which were necessary for a fantasy horror movie of this caliber.

I will say that the leading roles of Arnold Schwarzenegger (playing Jericho) and Gabriel Byrne (playing The Man) were interesting casting choices, but they worked out quite well. It was refreshing to see Schwarzenegger in a movie such as "End of Days". And needless to say that the charismatic Gabriel Byrne was just phenomenally well-cast for his role. The movie also have the likes of Udo Kier, Rod Steiger and Luciano Miele on the cast list. Good acting performances from all involved in the movie helped bring the movie to life in a believable manner on the screen.

"End of Days" is a movie that is very much watchable and enjoyable today, 23 years after it was initially released. If you enjoy Arnold Schwarzenegger movies, and haven't already seen "End of Days", then this is definitely a movie I will recommend you track down and watch. It is a way more dark and gritty movie than Schwarzenegger usually starred in.

My rating of "End of Days" lands on a seven out of ten stars.

Arnold does some good work in this movie. I liked his role as a suicidal/alcoholic/wiseass. I think some people were shocked to hear Arnold speak more than one line at a time in an action movie. ..But for the one-liner lovers you get some good ones like -- Arnie(to the devil)"You're a *bleep*ing CHOIRBOY compare TO ME!!" ...and... Arnie(to his best friend) "Stop being such a P*SSY!"

Also, a good performance was put in by the guy who played Satan. The way he blew up the van....very creative.

The only thing i didn't really like about this movie was the ending. I would have liked to see Arnold win in a different way.

Overall and 8/10. Didn't deserve the bad press it got. There are other action movies like this one that are so much better received for some reason. Religion's a very sensitive subject, so maybe that's where the negative stuff came from.
