kylere Take the concept of quality movie making. Take the concept of writing a script. Take the concept of interesting dialog or plot. Now, throw all that out!None of it was involved in this movie. I was so sad to see a once great actor take a paycheck to be involved in nothing more than a really bad propaganda piece. Paying a big name lead was merely part of the deception to convince you to buy this tripe. Don't watch this unless you are a Christian fanatic. Comparing this to a movie is almost impossible because it like comparing Stryper to Led Zeppelin.

Thomas D. Groesch The worst movie you will EVER see in your life. I felt sorry for McDowell having to endure it too. Seems to me he lost a bet or the hilarious brains behind this film had to find at least ONE good a actor from Hollywood to sell this complete BOWEL MOVEMENT of a film! Watch 20, no...15, no...10, no...5, yes, 5 minutes of it and you will KNOW why the reviews are so bad. Anyone who says this movie is good is clearly out of touch with movies, or do meth all day. The acting in general is what makes this so bad. I cannot believe the "actors" were even cast for this. I don't know if they literally were grabbed off the street, thrown in a white van, and arrived on a movie set, or, don't know what a "playback" button does when they practice. The idea is great, no doubt, but, how can an idea come to life when you have the crappiest actors known to mankind completely destroying and suffocating it??? CRAP!

aesgaard41 Every once in a while, I think we all should break from routine and rent a movie that doesn't cater to our interests and preferences. That's how I picked up this movie. "Suing The Devil" stars an obscure actor named Bart Bronson playing Luke O'Brien, a struggling law student who launches a scheme to sue Satan, the Devil, the Prince of Darkness, for eight trillion dollars for the evils of the past in order to legally get the money to cover his debts and future. Never mind the shaky reality of this plot, but just as he gets close to pulling off this preposterous stunt, in walks Malcolm McDowell as Satan to defend himself in court. That's really where the movie tales off. McDowell relishes and irascibly enjoys himself playing the Prince of Lies, even over-acting at times, but there's no effort here to resolve the complex mythology of the character. The court scenes are nothing but a Biblical history and psychological study. The plot is light, but fun to watch. What this movie is a light comedy with a heavy fantasy element; the Devil hires the country's most corrupt lawyers and pulls an OJ by creating the most complex court case in all of judicial history. The fact that this movie even resolves itself after so little exposition is a miracle to itself. The movie also stars Corbin Bernsen from "LA Law" as Barry Polk, a TV law correspondent whose only purpose is to explain and narrate the proceedings. It's a nice movie with heavy-handed religious tones in it, but it's definitely worth a see.

Theo Robertson law student Luke'O Brien mother has been killed by a drunk driver . Vowing to kill the man who did it he tracks him down . Pulling a gun out of the glove department he also finds a bible and instead of killing the man responsible for his mothers death he then decides to sue the man responsible for all the problems in the world - Satan If you think that premise sounds a little far fetched then you haven't seen anything yet and be warned if you're expecting a 21st Century version of Michael Powell's A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH because this certainly isn't what SUING THE DEVIL is about . In short it's Christian propaganda of the worst , totally one sided that blames some fallen angel called Satan for the world's problems . I'll say one thing in the films favour and that's that it went on for nearly two hours where the Christians didn't blame the Jews for anything so that's a major plus point but everything else is fundamentally flawed . If you're going to sue someone for all the world's problems then there's one major candidate who should be in the dock - God Let's suppose someone hijacks a plane and crashes it in to a high rise building . Who's getting the blame for that ? Satanists ? Atheists ? Agnostics ? Hmmm let me guess . Something to do with the will of Allah ? Am I getting warmer ? What's the first thing you think of when someone mentions " Catholic priest " ? A pious upstanding man of God whose vow of celibacy stands him in good stead ? I doubt if people problems with Catholic priests has anything to do with celibacy . Quite the reverse in fact . You switch on The God Channel and see the saintly Pat Robertson talk about tornadoes , Earthquakes and all sorts of natural disasters and who does he blame . Not Mr Satan but sinners who are being punished from God for all the filthy sin they're committing And let's look at the so called hero of the story law student and born again Christian Luke O'Brien who starts the film planning to commit a murder and who Satan exposes as a sinner because ... wait for it ... Luke accessed internet porn 349 times before he got married . Cut to a devastated Mrs O'Brien who is devastated that her husband enjoyed masturbating to internet porn before they got married . Right so masturbating is a worse sin than planning murder ? I really hope the Taliban don't have access to lesbian porn , I mean how disgusting is that one minute you're watching a couple of hot chicks using each other as infidel sex toys then the next minute you're executing infidel whores in soccer stadiums . I mean they're both of the same moral equivalence are they not ? The arguments put forward are nonsensical but when you've got a mythical figure in the dock being condemned for being the antithesis to another mythical figure then you're not expecting a fly on the wall documentary but there's not the slightest element of irony to any of this . The lack of real life court protocol is distracting and irritating in equal measure . I'm no lawyer but even I know much of the questioning and incident seen here would lead to contempt charges and just because the film has a camp , tongue in cheek feel which one wonders is intentional is no excuse The casting is very strange . We have relatively well known names like Corbin Bernsen and Tom Sizemore but they're playing rather superfluous peripheral characters who have little relevance to the plot and it's left to Bart Bronson as Luke O' Brien to carry much of the film . I wouldn't say he was wooden but I'm sure I saw him appear at this years world snooker championship as Ronnie O' Sullivan's cue . The only good performance is by Malcolm McDowell and even then it's one of those oh look at me aren't I a mincing luvvie channeling Jack Nicholson type performances but keeps the movie relatively watchable to a degree as does the rather ironic subtext In short this is a Christian propaganda film and like the worst propaganda its agenda is to preach to the converted , literally in this case . This explains why there's so many comments on this page giving the film full marks but yet explanations within the user comments fail to say why they've given this movie full marks . On my own part I've been rational and been are more objective
