Alas, look is everything here and storytelling and characters are next to nothing, so what emerges is oddly ineffectual and uninvolving -- visually striking set pieces set loose in a void.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
The tedious storytelling sucks the life and soul out of the characters far more effectively than Satan ever manages.
[An] unholy mess of a flick.
With the original Exorcist back at the multiplex, you don't need this pale copy.
Odd camera angles, artfully dim lighting and showy tracking shots simply don't make up for suspense or intelligence.
