| Film.comEric D. SniderBell directs with all the enthusiasm of a guy who was called into work on his day off. |
| Horror.comStaci Layne WilsonI liked it well enough, up until the sucker-punch ending. |
| Entertainment WeeklyClark CollisWhile this religio-horror effort does contain some nice scares, and a memorably unnerving turn from Crowley, The Devil Inside's biggest shock arrives when it abruptly ends - just as it hits its stride. The result is a found-footage movie whose third act remains missing. |
| New York TimesManohla DargisThe scariest thing about The Devil Inside is that a major studio like Paramount Pictures, which is distributing it, may be able to squeeze more profit out of a tedious, tediously exhausted subgenre that was already creatively tapped out when "The Blair Witch Project" spooked audiences more than a decade ago. |

| Mania.comRob VauxIt must be January. The s****y exorcist movies are in bloom. |

| The MercuryTim MartainThe less said about THAT ending, the better. But as a brief, brutal and nasty vignette showing the naked weirdness of an "authentic" exorcism, it's not sooo bad. |
