Atom User Reviews for The First Omen
4 Stars for how stunning Nell was in the movie
The way this movie was shot brought me back to the original. It was really well done and. I can't wait to watch it again and then watch the Omen.
……I am a horror movie fanatic and very few times I’ve been left speechless….what the audience experienced back in 1973 with the exorcist feeling damn near nauseous with Regan’s medical procedures……I felt the same way with this movie. A lot to handle if ur not a big fan of…

Creeped out. Can't wait to see what they do with this.
I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this film. It's hard to find good horror movies these days, but this one definitely delivered. There were several unexpected moments that made me jump, keeping me on the edge of my seat. I especially appreciated how The First…
The way they ended it was not the best
It lacked impact.
It was okay feel asleep half way then woke up to the screaming lol

Movie had its moments it was good. Couple of scenes went too far.
Thought it would be better. I wanted to fall asleep. Some people even walked out.
Waste of money
Nothing about this movie was terrifying a complete wasted evening!
we liked it a lot
It’s a good prequel but overall not a great movie kind of boring
I expected it to be more scary. It was good it need more to the story.
It was slow, boring, and weird.
Terrible
WOW, very unpredictable. In the worst way…
It is pretty good and pretty scary at the same time
could have more to a story 🙄
Metacritic
The new movie’s twists can only exist if they don’t contradict the previous films, so only a few surprises are even possible and those surprises can only happen in unsurprising ways.
The First Omen hardly qualifies for landmark or pantheon status. But it’s a movie that maximizes all its elements with some panache.
The film is also bold and clear cut about the way women’s bodies are made into objects of both reverence and shame – but its pièce de résistance is the shot of a vagina during birth, an entirely natural part of human existence that, in America, caused such a fuss that The First Omen was nearly slapped with an extreme NC-17 certificate. What a way to prove this film’s point.
