This Is Such A Silly Movie

Rating: 3/10 (4 July 2007)

The Devil's Advocate is utter pants. I wouldn't waste my time explaining the plot but it has to be one of the silliest horror movies ever made. It is a sheer letdown typified by Pacino's over-the-top and overdone performance and Reeves annoying southern accent and a narrative so ridiculous it is laughable. Then again, Reeves has never been that good of an actor himself anyway, if his previous roles are anything to go by. Charlize Theron is type-casted as the blonde bombshell and victim of distress and whilst I have seen better performances from her in this film, she is nothing more than male eye candy and thus, what else? Rather that she turns up in one scene in the nude. Likewise, the ending is just laughable and terrible. This film is total rubbish.
