Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
In its dry and forceful way, it delivers the same message as Jiri Menzel's Closely Watched Trains and Danis Tanovic's No Man's Land.
– Stephen Holden,
New York Times,
18 Dec 2002
fresh:
A wild ride that effortlessly combines devilish dark humor, slapstick comedy, extreme violence and bitter satire.
– V.A. Musetto,
New York Post,
18 Dec 2002
fresh:
Shot in rich, shadowy black-and-white, Devils chronicles, with increasingly amused irony, the relationship between reluctant captors and befuddled captives.
– Dennis Lim,
Village Voice,
17 Dec 2002
rotten:
There's a gem of an idea lurking inside this movie, but the film is burdened with an overwrought and static first hour and wild tonal fluctuation.
