The film's title is a reference to the common phrase "devil's advocate", and Pacino's character is named after the author of Paradise Lost, John Milton. The movie has some minor allusions to Milton's epic, such as the famous quotation "Better to reign in Hell, than to serve in Heaven".
Great movie, the plot is awesome, that's one of the movies in which you can move away from the TV. Totally recommended to think about what is really important in our lives after all.

ReplyDeleteBEST Movie :)
ReplyDeleteAlways loved this movie. A couple of really freaky scenes, too.
ReplyDeleteOne of the main complaints about this movie is apparently Al Pacino's acting, who is... (un?)intentionally mocking his acting in The Scent of a Woman - one of his best performances ever. With Devil's Advocate - be prepared for a surprising ending ;)
ReplyDeleteIm not a huge fan of Al Pacino,but this was a pretty good movie.
ReplyDeleteGreat movie with great actors.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn`t say it`s the best movie but yeah it`s pretty decent. Should give it a rewatch.
