Kevin Lomax Appreciation: Because Satan is his *daddy*, man!
I can't believe there's no thread for this. My pain knows no bounds! This is a classic Keanu movie, this was opposite Pacino!

I can't believe I still haven't seen this movie! [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] [img]smilies/embarrassment.gif[/img]
In 2 weeks, when my winter holidays start, I'm definately renting it out! I don't really have time to watch it now 'cause I'm too busy with school. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] __________________

I love this one too. Keanu was great.
The love scene between him and CT was so hot. [img]smilies/glow.gif[/img] Our man in a suit. [img]smilies/drool.gif[/img] Overall the movie had a good message in the end too. __________________

"Free will! It's a b**ch!" I love that quote! But it's very true. I guess the movie has several messages, but this one was my favorite. We were given free will. And I'm glad Kevin chose the right path. Sure, he was a little vain at the end, but I know he will keep doing the right thing.
***SPOILER WARNING!*** My favorite angsty part was when Mare was in the hospital and she stabs herself in the neck. The way Keanu shows his desperation and his frustration for not being able to help her was amazing. Then, when he is crying and screaming for her to stay alive...that part just made my heart break and my eyes leak! My favorite sexy part was at the beginning, when they're celebrating Kevin's win on the molesting teacher's case. When Mare and Kevin are dancing and he's behind her and he starts kissing her back and starts going down and then bites her tooshie! WHOA!! Very sexy! I loved, loved, LOVED the special effects on the white 3-D mural John Milton had in his "office/bedroom/living quarters" when the people carved in the mural started to come alive. That freaked me out, but I thought it just looked amazing! I don't think there is anything I didn't like about that movie. I enjoyed every moment of it from beginning to end. ***END SPOILER*** Okay, I shared. You guys' turn. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] __________________

Liz, completely agree. And I dont think you have to do spoiler tags, as the movies been out for years.
But yes, that scene when she attempts suicide and hes banging on the door; twas very powerful. I was reading a lot of Amazon reviews and a lot of people said something along the lines of "Pacino and Theron was great, but the reason this movie is getting only 3 stars is for the utter horridness of Keanus acting". That really angered me. I mean, I admit hes been pretty iffy in some movies, but I thought he was simply brilliant as Kevin. Brilliant. And I loved his accent. I finally realized hes doing a southern accent, and wondered why I hadnt noticed it before. And I realized, I never noticed it because his accent is so natural, it doesnt sound forced at all. |

This has got nothing to do with the movie (which, btw, I still haven't seen [img]smilies/redface.gif[/img] ), but I was watching MTV Cribs today and Beyonce said that she has the same bed as in "Devil's Advocate"! [img]smilies/glow.gif[/img]

I love this movie. Keanu in a suit (enough said about that)!! He was amazing. I watch this movie every chance I get. I has just the right creep factor without giving me nightmares (like the picture coming to life) and a great plot. You know that he is just dying inside when she kills herself and he wasn't able to help her.

Devil's Advocate is one of my favorite movies ever. I've seen it so many times already, I probably know most of the dialogue. Keanu was brilliant in this movie. This is actually the first movie I've seen him in, and it just made me fall in love with him. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I just watched this movie last night and it was so awesome. The end was a surprise but a good kinda surprise.
