Absolutely the worst movie.

A Major Disappointment

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

What a god awful movie. Most of the actors are worse than what you will find in a small towns community theater. Over the top, stilted, terrible acting that makes the whole thing (as stupid as the premise is)even worse.I don't know how they got a couple of the actors in this film, McDowell for example... they must have thrown a lot of money at him, for this film is a steaming pile of garbage.Premise- Man angry at mothers death sues the devil in court. Low and behold, Satan shows up to defend himself with a team of lawyers. Throw in a bunch of bible thumping "Jesus died for our sins" about 200 times, over acting by the entire cast...Not worth the time to watch, again, unless you are an ultra Christian.

I had the pleasure of having an actress as a friend while I was living in Australia. She mentioned that she was going to be an extra in a movie, and although we made plans to watch it together, I had to leave the country.Thank God I never had to see it with her...Years later she sent me a link to this film on IMDb, and said "oh you should check this movie out. This was the one that I told you about... I played one of the jurors." And since it had been a while I thought; oh why not? It's got Malcolm McDowell, how bad can it be, despite the low rating?Dear sweet lord it was worse than I thought.The acting is terrible to put it gently, even McDowell couldn't pull out a single believable moment to hold the viewer's attention. There is an ensemble cast of first timers, poor talent, and just terrible delivery throughout. The plot is even worse. In a misguided attempt to create a modern Christian comedy, they try and dupe you with what you think will be a funny little courtroom comedy. It's not. It's actually a really bad drama, like a film student's first attempt. I don't think anyone chose what theme they were going for when they made this movie. There is so much Christian rhetoric in this trash that I was literally yelling, "oh just shut it!" at the television. If you don't believe me, just listen to the song in the credits.Better yet, don't watch this movie at all and save yourself a lifetime of regret.1/10 (this is certainly the lowest rating I have ever given on IMDb. If there was something lower than 1, this movie would get it)

The premise of a trial with the Devil sounded like it could be a witty affair. And with Malcolm McDowell as the devil and all, it would surely not be too bad.How wrong! What I saw was so shockingly bad, that it's almost impossible to relate to would-be viewers. It was a dreary performance by all involved. McDowell's potential was thwarted by a cast that acted so badly that the mind boggles and a plot and dialogue that might as well have been written by naive 12 year old brainwashed kids.There was noting witty here, nothing smart, nothing interesting. This movie is an insult to the viewer's intelligence. It holds one mystery though: How on earth did Malcolm McDowell accept that role? It hurts to have to give the movie a score of 1 in order to write this when a 0 would have been right.

This film had potential given the topic, but fell flat. It should have a been a comedy/satire of a man who finds himself , but instead felt like Christian propaganda. In fact, if you rewrote "Bedazzled" and added elements from "The Devil's Advocate" that would have made a much better movie. The only shining star of this movie was Malcolm McDowell, but even that felt like it was being snuffed by the terrible writing. Like I said, it does feel like I'm watching a Christian film made for Christians and the Jesus/Christian music and the multiple proclamations by the protagonist of "I am a believer of Jesus Christ" does not help. As another reviewer suggested, you should watch "The Man Who Sued God" instead.
