The Devil’s Advocate (1997)
Listen now
Description
George had a pretty good idea of what The Devil's Advocate was going to be, based on his guess last week. But he couldn't possibly foresee Keanu Reeves facing Al Pacino in a blend of The Omen, The Client and Seven. And the twist at the end? And the twist after that? Heck no. Had no idea. But... did he dig it? Was George buying into the "Wonder Woman's Mom" energy of the seductive Christabella? Did Travis think the Rick Baker demon effects were more The Thing or more Spawn? Does Dan's Al Pacino impression hold a candle to Travis's? And! Stick around for a revisiting of The Prestige (one week later) and a discussion of American perspectives on nudity in film (inspired somewhat by next week's title).
