I must admit, I had high hopes for this film. I remember seeing a preview almost 9 months before the films release, and immediately started counting the days until it was to hit theaters.
As anxious as I was to see this film, I did not leave the theater disappointed. Gabriel Byrne was fantastic as Satan, and it was very interesting too see Arnold in a different sort of light. He didn't play his self confident, all powerful super-hero like usual. Instead, he was a lot more fragile, both mentally and physically. This seems to be the right direction for Arnold, especially since he can't keep that Mr. Universe physique up forever.
The script of course was extremely unbelievable, but then again, this is an Arnold flick. It's not like Total Recall, and Terminator were lifelike. None the less, there were very enjoyable films..... as is "End of Days".
This movie should be enjoyed by Arnold fans, and fans of supernatural films like the "Exorcist" and "The Seventh Sign".
