Arnie's not taking any chances this time, and the result is the most questionably repulsive big-budget film in recent memory. Go to Full Review Nell Minow Common Sense Media 12/24/2010

Tired dud of an over-the top violent action movie. Go to Full Review David Ansen Newsweek 03/31/2008
Peter Hyams's lurid, FX-happy thriller slams pieces of a dozen other movies into a noxious new compound. It has to be seen to be believed, but who'd want to? Go to Full Review Chuck Klosterman Akron Beacon Journal 10/30/2023
1.5/4
End of Days is never interesting and usually silly, but it might help Arnold get some momentum if he really does run for the governorship of California. At least he'll get the anti-Satan vote. Go to Full Review Kathi Maio The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction 02/27/2020
The fatal flaw lies in the fact that the Devil, especially when personified by a talented and handsome actor like End of Days's Gabriel Byrne, is actually much more compelling and personable than the hero. Go to Full Review Christopher Smith Bangor Daily News (Maine) 08/30/2008

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. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Romas M @Romas Jan 16 Greetings from Lithuania. I've always enjoyed "End of Days" (1999) since i was a teenager and saw it back in 1999. I've watched quite a lot back then, it was one of those good and atmospheric horror action hybrids and it was very unique for that. Directed by Peter Hyams this is a dark and moody film that has excellent performance by Gabriel Byrne and pretty good job by Arnie. Special effects were very solid and i like the pretty touching ending. Again, this film shouldn't be taken very seriously but as a action, horror thriller it does work for me. Overall, "End of Days" is an entertaining horror, thriller action hybrid. At running time nearly 2 hours i'm always entertained by it. It has great sets, dark and moody atmosphere and it never gets boring. See more Kinsey Laura E Jan 1 Saw this when I was a kid twice in theaters . Loved it , still do. This movie beat all action horror films. And I wish Schwarzenegger would've made more horror action films, he's good at it. See more Pinoy Short R @emill_santos Nov 18 Sakto lang. Isa sa mga under rated movies ni Arnold. Medyo cheesy given na 90's action flick to. 2nd time na napanuod ko na appreciate tong movie. Nung una siguro e masyadong hype lang dahil pinalabas nga to ng 1999 sakto sa millenium scare See more tommy J Nov 1 Great movie. This is like the crucifixion of Emily rose meets terminator 2. See more Mania I. @TheMania510 Oct 22 I rather enjoyed this millennial thriller action horror combination. Arnold Schwarzenegger does a decent job at play a cop who's battling his own demons and some real demons. The special effects still hold up to this day. The story sometimes wobbles a little but all in all it's a good nice popcorn movie with a strong cast. Visually stunning. I especially enjoyed the subway scene. See more Alexander K. @303Wolfman Oct 17 This movie would be 1000x better with anyone other than Arnold Schwarzenegger. See more Read all reviews
