Whether you're a believer in the Bible or not, you will love this film. No cursing, no sex and all thrill. Seems impossible in today's world?? Check it out and see for yourself. Michael York is riviting, you'll want to slap Catherine Oxenburg and you'll end up rooting for Casper. You will leave this movie with more insight, and I promise you will want to go back!
As a great fan of the "Left Behind" series of novels, I found this film to be a great beginning for films with a prophetic backdrop. It is filled with high production values - good camera work and special effects - comparable to what Hollywood studios have to offer. It's not a perfect film. The script and talent can fail so that some of the key moments the producers would like us to fully appreciate don't quite make it for a cynical audience, but that can all be corrected on the next venture. I hope the box office supports their first attempt in this marketplace so that they will produce more -- and I hope I'll get a chance to work on the next one with them. So see it. Buy tickets. Send your friends. thanks,
It is the worst thing ever created period. If this were the days of the Old Testament, God would smite everyone who had anyhting to do witht his movie and ten plagues would descend upon the studio that made it. Not only is it a poor piece of directing, writing, and filmaking altogther, it goes on to frsutrate the viewer with promises of an interesting story, leaving you unable to walk out of the movie, in hopes that at the end it will all come together to make sense. Heads up guys: It doesn't.
Do not see this movie. If you are ever forced to at gunpoint, take your chances, if you live the bullet will be far less painful than watching this piece of garbage. If you die, you can die never having seen the Omega Code, a feat I only wish I will be able to claim on my death bed.

Casper Van Dien (An actor that talent forgot.) stars as Gillen Lane a man who is trying to prevent a maniac (Michael York) from using the "secret" codes of the Torah to change the world to his liking in this preachy and moronic thriller. Terrible movie is so much of an entertainment dud, that one can die from sheer boredom of this thing. Even the actionscenes are perfunctory.
The Omega Code is a must see! Action packed thriller. Kept me on the edge of my seat. No one left the theatre for popcorn or even a restroom break. I was amazed at how the story just pulled you right in and left you waiting for more. There was applause several times during the movie by fellow movie-goers. Don't look at it as just another religious film. It does follow the Bible pretty true to form. I don't know whether there is a so-called Bible Code but it is just a movie. I would highly recommend it!

- TriviaThe room in which a computer is used to "decode" the Bible was the only set built specifically for this film. The rest of the scenes were shot on a variety of locations around the world.
- GoofsThough the film is supposed to take place over a seven year period, nobody ages or changes their hairstyle. This is particularly obvious with Gillen's daughter, who remains seven years old throughout.
