This film is like an overflowing pot of how to make a bad movie stew.

Action scenes become bland clones of 1,000 movies that we've seen before, and suspense scenes turn into, well, bland clones of action scenes that we've seen 1,000 times before.

An effort which will join True Lies and Raw Deal in the dustbin of Schwarzenegger history.

End of Days keeps asking whether faith or force will save the human race, before hedging its bets and insisting on both. Neither will be enough to save relics like Hyams and Schwarzenegger from their long, affluent drift into irrelevance.

In a performance that is among his worst, [Arnold] seems to have trouble with his lines and doesn't get to make his trademark wisecracks.

Pretty bad. But for camp value, you aren't going to find a better bang for the buck than End of Days.

The movie pits Arnold Schwarzenegger against the devil (Gabriel Byrne), with director Peter Hyams delivering tense moments of action amid not-so-subtle choices for character development.

Predominantly a failure, and the finger points to Peter Hyams, who helms this monolith with little grace or subtlety.
