The Worst Film Ever

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

I thoroughly enjoyed this film as an artistic view on the dark side of humanity. It explored themes of morality and temptation and free will. Keanu Reeves plays Kevin, a successful lawyer that's never lost a case that is offered a job at a powerful firm in New York, Charlize Theron plays his wife Mary Ann, and Al Pacino plays Kevin's boss and mentor who is revealed to actually be his father and Satan himself.The more successful Kevin gets, the more he tends to end up abandon his wife. The film brings the idea that we are tempted by Satan to commit evil acts. But he doesn't control us and make us do these things, rather he tempts us with promises of whatever we desire, or whispers ideas into our heads and we do evil things in reaction and of our free will. Which I found to be a powerful message. The idea of the big, cold New York City being the "devil's land" or "the city of Babylon" was a nice touch.People may have a problem with the nudity, but I was fine with it. It was an important part of the story. The female body and sex is shown to be another aspect of temptation.So the whole point of the movie is, the devil exists and pushes humanity to do whatever we want for our own selfish desires, but at the end of the day what we do is all of free will. We have free will to give in to the temptations, just as we have the free will to resist and try and stay as morally good as we can.My only problem with this film is Keanu Reeves. He was very good in this film, its just emotion was needed in a few scenes. Especially the death of his wife. He is crying and screaming as she dies in front of him, yet the very next scene he is walking down the hallway with his emotionless face and mono tone voice again. Dude, your wife just died. I would still be in a little moment of shock and sadness. I would just break down in tears a little here and there as it hits me over and over that my wife is dead, my voice would be in different tones. Nope, he is back into the usual emotion again, with barely any sadness under his monotone voice and facial expressions.Other than that, Al Pacino is amazing, Charlize Theron is also good. A very good entertaining flick, with a dark atmosphere and a powerful message on the deep root of evil in humanity.

OK, full disclosure, I have a thing for Al Pacino. I'll watch just about anything he's in and...if he screams and yells a monologue in it, if he delivers a diatribe of rage....yeah I get flashbacks to him screaming: "I'd take a flame thrower to this place" and roll my eyes back like a shark in a feeding frenzy.Oh, yeah, almost forgot, Keanu is in this one too...but for a good slice of the film he doesn't play the most savory of characters and, really, honestly, he just seems too nice to play a lawyer......but despite that he does a pretty good job of exhibiting the ego that has to come with the law profession...just not the vile evilness. So, I can't totally fault him for miscast as I could for Dracula.Jeffery Jones is in there too and due to recent revelations he totally fits the sleazy lawyer role.But yeah, 1997, the 90s had a way with films that was only really beaten by the 70s and The Devil's Advocate is one of those films that could really only be made in those two decades. Stand alone horror not intended as a franchise piece and one with a twist that asks you to think a little.No way that would be made today and that is a shame.I could tout its glory, but really, honestly, the movie could have stank and I wouldn't care thanks to Pacino screaming "I'm a fan of man!" It's worth the watch.

Hello everyone, Yesterday someone directed me to a vampire lord in United State Of America and this man introduce me to the brotherhood of vampire, i will forever remain lower to the God Father. I will advice anyone who want to become a vampire should contact Brother Scott Morgan for advice via email: [email protected]

Devil advocate against whom?" god, the absentee land lord. Newsflash Sophia created the world Christ and dark-lord and successfully cloned herself.Asherah spew yahweh from her deep. She is first sex, scorpions and sharks reproduce asexually to produce an all female race.Isis could create a daughter or son, but made Horus with Osiris. Marianne was most high deity who came to earth to rule and bear yashua. not a rewarded mortal woman as catholics have it. Woman always conceives by her agency( all blocks, lif force pulls in sperm and linng duplicate cell, builds fetus. so its better to say with no male involved. No god, alien or human, so why worship a god over the emasculate conception? god , the landlord is the Devil's lie....god the pope the butler was true in myth and in real life male is second sex.Devil as a lawyer, is worth watching. " excuse me miss , did I leave my boots under your bed, your weakness is that they see your coming" Great timeless example like Elijah or beautiful witch who ask for help in disquise. Still a serious example of life style. Display of wealth for prestige versus living well. " vanity my favorite sin""all she wanted was love" Again a great narrative about priorities and unhealthy self obsession.She no doubt benefited from his success and wanted to be with her husband, but where is the line between support, Tagalog and left behind?
