The Devils (1971)
6/10
Torturous mixed bag of a film
2 August 2021
A film with striking setpieces, interesting ideas, and visuals. The Devils is a famous artsy movie that I can tell is well made and performed, but it didn't really click for me personally and seemed like it meandered in places. Some of the sex/torture stuff felt a bit overblown.

Yes I am aware this is a controversial movie and that's kind of the point, but I dunno it just felt like some of it wasn't needed to be there and was just padding out the runtime. Either way, the film wasn't really my cup of tea, but it has some merit and intrigue that keeps it fairly watchable for me.

6/10.
