Critic Reviews for The Devil and Max Devlin
All Critics (11) | Top Critics (2) | Fresh (2) | Rotten (9)
The script has its moments, especially when Cosby is around as the Devil's aide, but the film finally subsides in a welter of structural flaws and heartwarming sentiment.
The performances are attractive though, with one exception, not especially memorable.
Despite an encouraging start, the film degenerates into typical Disney sentimentality.
I loved this as a kid. It didn't hold up well, once I grew up.
Clumsy ol' Disney comedy.
Audience Reviews for The Devil and Max Devlin
THE first movie my family ever rented. You know back in the day when you had to rent the VCR too. It came in a big bulky plastic case like a musical instrument. The kind that had the top that popped up so you had to slide the tape in and press the whole thing back down. Wow.

A splashy Disney curiosity. It's great seeing Bill Cosby as the Devil! Elliot Gould plays Max Devlin, a rotten man who is given the chance to save his own soul by finding others who are more evil. It's fun black comedy.
