Fraser Mckissack’s review:
Shyamalan should have been a one-hit wonder, instead he became a long winded joke with a shit punch-line. Having lost credibility as a director Devil was supposed to be his reinvention as a screenwriter and producer. Unfortunately the film is still pretty lame. Like most of his other films the whole setup drives towards a twist ending. Who is the devil in the elevator? By the end of the film I really didn't care. There's also some hackneyed morality tosh about forgiveness thrown in. Like Shyamalan's career, this elevator is going down fast hiyooo
That first sentence of the review is brilliant.
haha cheers bro, to be honest it is pretty easy to take shots at Shyamalan, the poor bugger isn't having much luck
I read a book about him called The Man Who Heard Voices – pretty fascinating read, actually.
