With the millennium approaching, a series of disturbing signs suggests that Satan (here played by Gabriel Byrne) has returned to Earth and is walking the streets of New York City. It seems that Satan needs to find a woman who will bear his child, as the time for the arrival of the anti-Christ draws near. A woman named Christine (Robin Tunney) believes that she has seen the Devil and felt his presence, and it's up to Jericho Cane (Arnold Schwarzenegger), a former policeman turned elite bodyguard, to keep her safe from The Dark Lord. End of Days was both directed and photographed by Peter Hyams; Kevin Pollak, Renee Olstead, and Udo Kier are among the supporting cast. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

    Somehow this ends up being a pretty interesting story and one of Arnold's better performances, he plays a smart ass cop pretty well. Sure, it has nothing on The Exorcist or The Omen, but it's about as good as you could expect an action horror movie to be. There are some really ni... read morece sequences and at the end of the day it's just fun, like most of Arnold's movies.

    Gabriel Byrne and the side of Robin Tunney's boob aside, End of Days was a pretty sorry movie trying to cash in on the then current Millennium fad. Instead of a Backstreet Boys album it was Satan bringing about the Rapture. Same thing if you ask me, but I digress. If this movie w... read moreas made in the 70s and had Charlton Heston playing the lead (thing Omega Man or Soylent Green) it probably would be a sweet movie even if only for nostalgic value. But since it's Arnold Schwarzenegger instead of Ol' Chuck and End of Days hasn't... fermented enough yet it's still crap. The premise is pretty much The Omen and no new ground is broken with this movie. Your best bet for optimum enjoyment is catching it at 1:30 in the morning when you're too tired to change the channel.

    It's spectacular. A haunting, chilling and endlessly entertaining thriller. Explosive non-stop action. A wickedly cool and exhilerating thrill-ride. A fantastic mixture of horror, action and surprising emotion. It's pure mind-blowing excitment. Arnold Schwarzenegger is memerising... read more. A sensational and powerful performance. Gabriel Bryne is witty, compelling and electrifying.

Displaying precisely the imagination that gave the world such epic achievements as The Star Chamber and The Relic, Hyams dusts off America's designated import and goes with Arnie Schwarzenegger his ow... Full Review

End of Days is an overblown, overspectacular, oversold movie without an original idea in its head. Full Review

Movies like this are particularly vulnerable to logic. Full Review

Reasonably entertaining.

John Hartl, Film.com

Full of sound and fury, signifying absolutely nothing, End of Days is the loudest and least of the year's end-of-the-world movies.

Janet Maslin

Janet Maslin, New York Times

As incoherent about its mysticism as it is about anything else. Full Review

Michael Atkinson

Michael Atkinson, Village Voice

85 percent explosions and editing idiocy (a window can't break without director Peter Hyams cutting between five different angles) and 15 percent Arnold trying to grow a third dimension. Full Review

Kevin Maynard, Mr. Showbiz

Arnold Schwarzenegger's latest vehicle, End of Days, is such a witless, bombastic, by-the-numbers hunk of millennial hooey it made me nostalgic for Commando.

Susan Stark

A depressingly shabby excuse for a movie. Full Review
