Movie Review by B Movie Ben
April 25th, 2007

Happy birthday Al

Pacino is over the top in his characterization of the devil in this film. You really believe, I mean really believe that you are seeing Satan himself. I never get tired of watching this performance.

He has a great supporting cast here with Keanu Reeves as a lawyer that will do anything to win. But, Kevin (Reeves) was bush league. He met John (Pacino) and learned what it meant to "do anything" to win. There are some interesting twists here that make the movie so much more interesting. I wouldn't want to spoil them for you.

Also, the movie has the luscious Charlize Theron as Kevin's wife. Needless to say she has to be removed for John's plans to come to pass. It's not pretty! Connie Nielsen and Tamara Tunie add their exquisite beauty to the mix and make the journey so much more enjoyable.

Does Kevin go over to the Dark Side? I'll never tell.

I though he was perfect with Sandra Bullock in Speed. I can't imagine anyone else doing that role.

Yeah, it's pretty much all about Theron in this one.
