The Devil's Advocate — 3.5/5
Long been on my list as something that I'm not sure was highly received, but felt like an entertaining, enduring movie and man, Pacino is having fun, isn't he? He is both terror and cartoon, a Looney Tunes-sized supervillain. Keanu is pretty bad in here, thinking that he can pull off a Southern accent, but also Pacino pronounced 'cyber' as 'kyber' so I don't think anyone behind the camera was actually paying attention to the words coming out of people's mouths. Which creates a good and useful looseness! This could have been more serious, more horror, more good, but it instead is fun; infinitely rewatchable, both lesser-than and better-than, a devil's trade.
