If whispered monologues were currency, The Devil's Advocate would settle the national debt.

Watched The Devil's Advocate so you don't have to. You're welcome.

If The Devil's Advocate was a meal, it'd be unsalted rice with extra ego.

Hot Take: The Devil's Advocate's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece

Director clearly thought The Devil's Advocate was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in The Devil's Advocate?

Honestly, The Devil's Advocate would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

The cinematography in The Devil's Advocate is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows

Everyone praising the The Devil's Advocate performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.
