Megiddo: The Omega Code 2

Taking into account it is very hard to sum up prophecies that cover decades of end time into 90 minutes or so, the movie is very well done. Excellent performance by all the key actors. The battle scenes at Megiddo look like the movie came from one of the top regular studios. Could it have been done better? Yes. Could it have been done better at this length? That would be harder.

Normally religious movies turn me off instantly, but I didn't know what this was when I bought it, yes I was impulsive. I wasn't expecting this kind of movie when I watched it, and once I realized it was religiously charged I nearly turned the player off. i was quickly entranced by the look and feel of this movie! The acting, even Micheal Biehn, was too exaggerated in spots, but the other elements of this movie made it watchable! Furthermore, to say it's kind of predictable or obvious is odd considering the source, I'm not a Biblical person but I knew the events, and to rate this movie above PG is kind of outrageous; the Bible itself is full of more graphically disturbing images than this movie!

i just saw Megiddo in the theaters on its realese date with my mom and we loved it!!!! The actors (especially Michael Biehn) were awesome in the film and it does tell the story about the coming of Christ. almost everything you see in this film looks realistic. the visual effects rock in this film! anyway, if you haven't seen this film yet, what can i say, GO SEE IT!!! YOU'LL LOVE IT!!!! just like Paul Crouch said on Praise the Lord, "we've got us a good flick on our hands." he's right!!!!

This movie was great!!! I haven't felt as satisfied with spending money on a movie at the theater as I did yesterday in a long time. I've been waiting to see a movie like this during my time for a long time, you know, those so-bad-its-good movies everyone is always talking about. Well, I can safely say I love those movies, but none weird enough or horrible enough have come out since the 70's. Now, it has all changed. All the acting was terrible, the special effects were worse than the intros to playstation games, the script was non-existant, and the movie seemed to overall be a super-fast paced movie with about one billion ideas thrown into an hour and a half. None of it made any sense! It was like some amazingly unbelievable psychotic view of how the Earth works. What weirdo made this movie?? Have you ever been outside?? FBI agents shooting secret service agents?? HAHAHAHA I have not laughed so hard at a movie at the theater in forever. I want to go see this again, which I havent found myself saying in quite a while either.

But my god, if they doesnt rank up there with being as awesomely bad as Sometimes Aunt Martha Does dreadful Things, Boarding House, Death Wish Club, and all the other classic Z-movies, then I dont know what does. And I would also like to add that whoever had the amazingly horrible idea of casting R. Lee Emrey as president of the U.S. - you are a genius.

I seem to get the feeling that Udo, Reese, and all the others in this movie were doing horrible acting jobs to add to it. Wasn't it awesome where all of Stone's soldiers were wearing sunglasses? And where Michael York coughed up all those bees and then fell a little as tho it had worn him out? Ah... good times..

My wife suggested we see "Megiddo," and I'm glad she did. It's refreshingly different and indeed entertaining to watch a film lacking the ubiquitous dark-green haze of linguistic pollution or the hackneyed writer's block cure-all: nudity.

Entertaining though it was, "Megiddo" represents interpretations of the endtimes described in the biblical Book of Revelations or Apocalypse that are current among many of us. Might there be other interpretations that a film should consider as well that go beyond the strictly literal? Perhaps that is too much to ask of one film, given the circumstances of its production.

Humanity's struggle between good and evil was a thematic constant in this film, as in Judaism's Yom Kippur, Christianity's atonement, Islam's only now barely understood jihad (the struggle over the sinful self to be one with God's will). For all its literal stance, the film is poignantly significant given the recent horror (that humankind is wont to visit upon its own) in New York, Washington, Pennsylvania, and in other stricken areas world-wide.

See "Megiddo" (and read the book, or read the book first) and judge for yourself. Are the endtimes the stuff of spectacular special effects (some quite profoundly moving as was God's parting of the Red Sea in "The Ten Commandments"), or is the Holy Bible's text possessed of far more subtlety and significance than we think or films display?
