Rubbish
4 March 2002
Omen 3 rounds off the trilogy, but in an unsatisfactory way. It lacks suspense and an explosive finale, the film falls flat. There's not enough in the story, it's very lazy. The film never lifts itself. The plot is boring, there's not much happening. There's no conflict in the film.

The casting is quality, Sam Neill is very good as Damien, but didn't have enough to do!

Jerry Goldsmith's score is fantastic, adds an epic feel to a rather average film. The score deserved an oscar.

The direction by Baker is average, he seemed more of a yes man rather than someone who could create his own vision. The screenplay is lacking in every department, it features loads of plot holes! The film limps to the finale, and we get to the end, it just dies! Not even the best director could've worked with this terrible script! The photography is excellent, really brings out the English countryside!

Overall, a disappointing end to a promising trilogy.
