Whereas the original Omen was truly horrifying and suspenseful, I found myself falling asleep several times during The Omen 2006. Watching this movie once was like being forced to sit through two bad movies back-to-back. First of all, the casting was horrible. Liev Schreiber and Julia Stiles??? Come on! Seamus Davey-Fitzpatrick played the role of Damien, and apparently without any prior knowledge of who the devil is supposed to be. This movie has no pre-historical build up to the birth of Damien, scenes are unremarkably predictable and move slower than molasses, and the only time I was able to stay awake during the screening was when the rest of the audience was laughing at the extreme over-acting. The first indicator was the film's score, which would have been more appropriate for a movie like "Jaws" than for a spiritual thriller. Just as in the case of "The Da Vinci Code," too much hype and not enough content. On a scale of 1 to 10, The Omen 2006 rates a 1. - D.
