Grimly stylish, Ken Russell's baroque opus is both provocative and persuasive in its contention that the greatest blasphemy is the leveraging of faith for power.

What I find such a pity is that Russell should apparently so distrust his own skill as a mesmerising story-teller. March 18, 2020 | Full Review…

What is quite certain is that Russell has been true to himself as never before and that in doing so, he will irritate, excite, bore and outrage more film-goers than ever before. March 18, 2020 | Full Review…

Even more than The Music Lovers, The Devils reveals an infantile compulsion to shock and repel, cost what it will. March 18, 2020 | Full Review…

The truly provocative -- some might even say blasphemous -- part of the film is its assertion that, even while preaching their rhetoric of sin and salvation, nuns and priests and cardinals are only human, and humans are nothing but animals. November 8, 2018 | Full Review…

It is like a lunatic opera, an attempt to make a furious poem out of frenzy. Russell's flamboyant theatricality and his interest in the perverse have been too much imposed on his other films; but here, style and subject are perfectly matched. November 8, 2018 | Full Review…

All the events and persons depicted in The Devils are intended to be confused with actual events and persons. How do I know? Ken Russell tells me so. April 29, 2018 | Rating: 0/4 | Full Review…

About facts at any rate, and as cinematic reconstructions go, The Devils seems to be pretty accurate. But it is startlingly unsuccessful in moving its audience. March 18, 2020 | Full Review…

Despite its superb acting, gratuitous excesses turn this short baroque opera into a simple comic opera. [Full Review in Spanish] July 30, 2019 | Full Review…

It's scandalous in that it talks about things people generally aren't prepared for and it does so with the sharp edge of satire. After seeing the film, you'll know full well who, in Ken Russell's supposition, the real Devils are. November 8, 2018 | Full Review…

It's an experience which pulsates and perverts, especially in those glorious moments when Russell slaps the sacred directly in its frescoed face... In this brilliant film, nothing is safe: not God, not Satan, not man, not their collective meaning. November 8, 2018 | Rating: 10/10 | Full Review…

Weird, disarmingly funny, and stuffed to the gills with inspired visuals and intense framing from [director of photograph] David Watkin, The Devils is a masterpiece. November 8, 2018 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…
