THE DEVIL'S ADVOCATE (1997) - The Best Movie You Never Saw

[@Omar-wq9dz]

Keanu Reeves actually taking a major pay cut for Al Pacino to be in the movie shows how cool he is

[@tzaneee]

that`s actually pretty smart for his career overall ,getting your name up there with al pacino as an up and coming actor is better than a fast pay check

[@anubusx]

Reeves is such a nice guy.

[@Kiárán92]

See whenever he takes photos with female fans, he puts his arm around them, but doesn’t actually touch them. Also, I’ve heard he’s took pay cuts a few times after that film too. Gent!

[@shadowwatcher531]

@Steven Burrell I always wondered why that title got used so much, now it makes sense. I’d see it everywhere on popular movies, games, musicians. I just sit here like “???? Everyone I know knows about that!” Your comment makes it make sense now

[@JV-ll1cu]

This is quite well known movie.

[@4Legacy]

It really does capture an unsettling, "nobody's coming to save you" intensity through the whole movie. Like there are a bunch of invisible timers running, but the characters only ever realize it once it's juuuust too late. A wonderful example of suspense done right. The only thing that throws me off in this film (and I'm sure he's getting to it. I'm only 2 mins into the video), is that accent

[@GlennDavey]

Because this channel is for little children who are literally watching everything for the first time.

[@-NateTheGreat]

The part where his wife barricades herself then slices her own throat open through the window still gets me to this day. This movie is a masterpiece I watched it right after it came out.

[@JnEricsonx]

Yeah. To anyone who says Keanu can't act, I point at this movie. I will say I can tolerate his English accent more than his Southern one.

[@shininbright1315]

What I love the most about this movie is that it’s a glimpse of that can be if he made a single choice. Everything that happened in this movie was from the moment in went into the bathroom and looked in the mirror. That’s was a powerful realization.

[@mohammadjavadmonjezi]

honestly I don't think its a glimpse of any type, I believe that all the events did happen but after the devil failed he brought back time to the point that he would have another chance with another approach since Kevin is somehow the key to all of this and he would probably eventually manage to get him...

[@AdamOMcMurphy]

I remember when I watched this in theaters, I left knowing that Charlize Theron was going to be a star. Her performance in this flick gets forgotten about, but her characters distress in the latter half of the film is extremely convincing, and my heart generally aches when I think about it.

[@OffRampTourist]

Love the film, bought the DVD, but couldn't watch it through again because of her heartbreaking performance.

[@TayR0C]

Just watched it for the first time, and I was blown away by Charlize's acting. Incredible.

[@Galen-864]

Pacino's monologue on God was INCREDIBLE.

[@ilovebutterstuff]

My favorite line: "I'M A FAN OF MAN!" Of course, he's obviously not. That's why he asserts the idea so passionately. Such excellent acting. The best critique on the 20th century I've ever heard.

[@alphacraig2001]

“HE’S LAUGHING HIS SICK, FUCKING ASS OFF!”

[@LE-gs9mo]

If you're including the entirety of his speech, I would say it's more of a monologue about himself, the very nature of who he is, and his viewpoint/beliefs concerning God and mankind.

[@icyike]

@@LE-gs9mo the schtick being that he is lying because he’s the devil

[@SaturnineXTS]

@@ilovebutterstuff Oh he is a fan of man, only it's just one part of mankind that he likes - indulging their instincts rather than restraining them

[@AAvfx]

I speak for the older crowd when I say... We couldn't have missed it! ☺️ But the younger generation might never heard of it, that's true. Al Pacino is the star here, imho. His character is diverse and exceptional. The volume of his acting actually terrified me as a teenager. I had to watch this movie several times over the years to calm my curiosity or need that the good always wins. Can also remember some disturbing sequences and plot twists that made me loose some sleep.

@@MisterFarce Ah, Dr. Warner.

[@SomeoneIsAlwaysMovingOnTheSurf]

I know the reveal from natural to supernatural halfway through the movie was amazing. l love when they do that.

[@TheBigBlueBugofJustice]

@@SomeoneIsAlwaysMovingOnTheSurf And it works especially well considering that, for a good while even after the reveal, it's still left kind of ambiguous as to whether something supernatural is actually going on, or whether the things Marianne was seeing were just in her head as a combination of extreme anxiety from being all alone all day in an apartment way too big for just herself in a new city where she doesn't have any real friends, and her strong, unfulfilled desire to have a baby. It's only really until much later in the film when we are finally, truly shown that, yes, there ABSOLUTELY ARE supernatural occurrences going on with Milton as the epicenter. And I think all of that just makes the film's pacing and atmosphere work SOOOO well, and it's definitely one of those movies that's even better the second time around, watching through again with all the knowledge gained from the first viewing helping to catch things you didn't/couldn't the first time. (Angel Heart is a fairly similar film in that regard, featuring the equally legendary Robert De Niro as the man revealed to be Satan himself at the end just like Pacino in The Devil's Advocate. Definitely give that a watch too!)

[@aliidris5843]

"Vanity is definitely my favorite sin". I still remember this line. This movie is excellent.

[@gmb858]

I've watched the Devil's Advocate a dozen times; each time I found a different aspect to a character or their line of thinking that has subtext that isn't readily apparent. Every actor and actress in this movie is excellent and believable for the role. It is well photographed; it's pacing is constant- the climactic scene of Pacino as John Milton is a tour de force. Pacino makes the case for Satan, a sophistry of unmitigated gall and self aggrandizement that exemplifies the mendacity of Pride. So vain, so self congratulatory, he punches every button of human ambition and excess. Believe it or not, as a Christian, I became more aware of the trickery of the Devil in Milton's speech. Understanding that level of cunning has given me ideas on how to safeguard myself from the rationalized temptations of our world. The Devil's Advocate is a singular film, there is nothing quite like it. It is smart, it is emotional in way that most people can understand. The opening gives no hint of the ride the viewer is about to take, a ride that once they finish, they will never forget.

[@alanaronald244]

Same, except I'm not a Christian & have watched it about half a dozen times. Still, lots to discover.

[@riseagainstthemachine6079]

I hardly disagree to be honest. I love Al Pacino in the movie. At the same time I think it is one of many examples about Keanu Reeves being a "just good enough" actor, instead of a good actor. I would need to research the name of the main cast female actor, I actually think she did very well. The plot is not complex at all. It tries to surprise you, still no one ever gets surprised by this movie. Its hard to get invested in the main character, because he developes so fast and never really does anything good to annother person. (Oh and the final is just straight up trash, time travel is a complex thing and way too complex for the makers of this movie) The wordplay with things that are connected to the old testament and spirituality is sometimes good. Most of the times it's not only far away from modern christianity, but it's also just too much and too forced. The good parts would have a way better effects, if they didnt feel like common but still forced speech. The way they represent sins and how humans can embrace those is actually not bad. Definitely not masterclass, but its fitting and often entertaining. So all in all I would call it a bad movie. Everything that is good gets boring and meaningless by pushing it too far. Everything that is bad is not bad enough to feel like entertaining trash. Still I'll recommend it to anyone. Al Pacino with one of his best performances is always watchable.

[@susanhawkes2519]

I like that real senators were at the devil's party. Donald Trump was supposed to be there too but had a "busineess emergency." He was "probably with Mark Zuckerberg." Prescient & funny. And this was only 1997!

This is one of those gems that I happened to see on TV when I was a teenager and loved it (it didn't get a massive European release, at least not where I live). You don't really have a single person to root for, it's a clear cut case of good and evil, and the acting was so good that the entire movie had tension to it. Might have to rewatch it tonight, after I watch Lethal Weapon 4, saw 1, 2 and 3 last night. Great bad movies are the best.

[@jeenkzk5919]

I remember my mother being concerned for Al Pacinos soul after his end monologue! As far as Rotten Tomatoes: the audience score is the more reliable verdict if deciding on a film. In the end, give a movie a try and decide for yourself.

[@jared4902]

Well yea...the critics just rate how woke they are. People rate in entertainment value

[@mattyt1961]

any aggregate is a bad indication. I think you are better finding a reviewer (professional or otherwise) that you agree with often and take their recomendations (if you need to) rather than rely on the score. The critics can often be more concerned with the 'art' of a film than the whole of it, while the audience can get caught in the nostalgia and even the socio-politics of the film, the cast, the studio. These can lead to an unwarranted positive, or negative
