JaydoDre No, seriously, I know how many common people will tend to use an unprofessional "the worst" or "the best" when reviewing something. I never exaggerate like that, but in this case I can really not find a movie in my memory that I've seen that was worse than this one. I can't stop from using the unprofessional "I" perspective either, since this special movies requires a special kind of review. I could try an list all the negative things about the movie here, but the thought of me having to think about this movie for that long makes me reach for the gun. So let's be brief.Megiddo seems to be a home-made attempt by some 60-year-old Christian conservative to create a patriotic movie. Although the concept itself might discourage masses to see this thing, the movie even fails to be what it's supposed to...miserably.The plot is basically this: Europe and the neighbors become united under the command of the devil, who plans to take over the world. God showers the Earth with rocks while the US stands alone against the world with its super-president dressed in black leading the fight against the devil. Does that make sense? If it does (and you are as messed up as I thought), it's where the sense ends. The details of the storyline are much more appalling.Actor choice wasn't bad. Michael York does his work as the bad guy, but in all his demonic power, he can't save this flick. The rest of the actors are just trying to make long working hours, and York isn't innocent of that either.Special effects and camera work are surprisingly good at times, and absolutely TERRIBLE the rest of the time. It's as if the effects were done by two different teams.I wish to speak of this no longer and I will try to pray away the shame and sin of having seen this movie, although after seeing it, the devil and God suddenly don't seem as cool, powerful or scary anymore. I beg you to never go and see this movie unless you're loaded on painkillers or like to practice masochism.

Rachael-Siobhan So tonight I watched this movie for a lack of alternative evening endeavours or bearable programmes; more out of sheer boredom, to be honest. Wile my boredom wouldn't fade away - and I was waiting for that to happen, as I expected this to be an action inspired movie about the end of times, particularly given the cast -, this most terrible movie gradually turned most hilarious.The acting is over the top as if even the actors couldn't take this effort seriously, the special effects remind me of late 90s CGI as one would find it in the animated sequences of role-playing adventure games, and the director obviously has never heard about dramatisation or narration. Suspending disbelief won't help you with this movie; the great arc of the Book of Revelations has been rendered a mess; and the Antichrist is about as terrifying as Tinky-Winky, the teletubby. That means you won't find anything frightening about him at all, and moreover he is neither a deceitful nor evil nor smart, just a hoax of devil.The love story is soddingly dry, and while there is emphasis, there is little empathy. I was hoping that somewhere, somehow, by God's intervention perhaps, suspense would emerge in this movie; but the final scenes just stayed as uninspired as the rest of the film. The end felt particularly like a cop-out - a sudden intervention by God, that and who never was indicated before, a classic deus ex machina, that was no salvation, just dodgy mechanics - and BOOM! the movie's over.There is no doubt that this film had an enormous budget; it's sad to see that this was used to no avail. Well, that's not true: It shows a hideous mixture of hooray patriotism (US), xenophobia and prejudice (towards UN and EU) and a caricature of Christianity, i.e. an appalling lack of understanding about anything as regards the nature of politics, religion or faith.In the end this movie was just so bad, that it was most hilarious to watch the actors (and CGI characters) stumble from one mess into another. I asked myself for whom but fundamentalist Christians such pretense of film had been produced - I did so jokingly, and it amazes me, shocks me, that this audience really accepts such sorry waste of time. This film is not worth your time, rather read in the Revelations.

wwjd_kilden I must agree that this is NOT the best film made, whether you see it for the action or for the message. - but Christians probably manage to look a bit beyond the visual things of the movie. If you know the story of revelation you will catch on quite quickly. But if you don't the film can probably get slightly confusing, maybe even boring, BUT;The whole movie is worth seeing just to see the end of it :-) (Expeccially if you are a Christian) - don't turn it off just because it gets darker and darker, if you're a Christian you know how it'll end anyway... - If you see it, make sure you see the whole movie.

masschaos 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!
