disdressed12 Review of The Seventh Sign

The Seventh Sign (1988)

another "end of the world" movie,but nothing new or compelling.

[6/10 · 6 January 2007]

ho-hum.another one of those "all signs point to the end of the world movies".as these types of movie go,this film is much too lacking in substance to be compelling viewing.think "the Omen"(the original)lite.very lite.there are a few variations on the theme,true,but the movie fails to make a lasting impression(or any impression)the actors put in good performances,and bear no responsibility for the film's failure.credit that to the lacklustre script which is simply has no depth.as well as the direction,which ,ironically has no direction.the original The Omen,set the Standard for this genre and has yet to be nor will likely ever be surpassed.as for the Seventh Sign, it is a good diversion,but will quickly be forgotten after viewing.a good rule of thumb about this type of movie is that it should stick with and make you question things.this movie does neither. 6/10
