End of Days | Year: 1999 Classification: Action Country: USA Language: English Directed: - Peter Hyams Actors/Actresses: - Arnold Schwarzenegger - Gabriel Byrne - Robin Tunney - Udo Kier - Rod Steiger - Kevin Pollak Forget The Critics! When I first bought End Of Days,I thought it was going to be bad, giving that movie critics panned it when it was out in thearters.Boy,I was surprised!It's a creepy,dark Arnold action/horror flick that got great,if not exactly mind-blowing,special effects and heart-pounding scariness to go with it.Sure the plot is silly(Arnold vs.the Devil),the acting isn't great,but hey-it's prime Ar-nuld!Also,give the guy credit for trying to be somebody more human(a down-and-out cop named Jericho) than his usaul larger-than-life,man-of steel action hero self!Even when Arnie gets a little ridiculous when he trys to cry or asks for God to "give me strength"(!).Gabriel Byrne does a fine,menacing turn as you-know-who,while Robin Tunney does a histronic,overwrought turn as Satan's would-be bride Christine York!All n' all,a fun roller-coaster ride of a DVD! Why did everyone hate this film? I thought the story was pretty good and Arnold's acting was pretty good, Gabriel Byrne did a pretty good job. The only acting that I didn't like was Robin Tunney, she was kinda annoying. Other than that I thought it was a good comeback for Arnold cause he actually played a vulnerable character instead of the regular action hero he usually plays. So I actually enjoyed this movie, it's not one of his greatest movies like Terminator 2: Judgement Day but I thought it was pretty entertaining, check it out and if you want to talk movies with me my e-mail is ... pretty good i actually enjoyed watching this movie, arnold said that he needed a role where his character was more complicated and this movie is like that becuase the story is not real simple when he goes up against satan and he is a drunken cop coping with his wife and kids death and then having himself caught up in this mystery of satan being released from his prison and has to save the girl that was chosen by satan, not a big exposive acton movie like one of a typical arnold flick but its a very good suspense thriller worth the watch.
