| Film4Sam JordisonFurther proof that Bergman had a lively sense of humour as well as an unusual ability to plumb the depths of the human psyche. |
| User ReviewC. HThis may be one of Ingmar Bergman's greatest comedies!! Much irony and a hilarious description of hell. Marvellous cast, as usual, and pretty progressive for its time! One of my favourites for sure! |
| User ReviewPaulina DA clever, and very funny comedy of errors between the figure of the Latin lover, and a lively Scandinavian ice queen. |
| User ReviewPrivate UVaya.. Buena pelicula.. bien particular, poco comun, y bastante moderna para su tiempo.. ironica y mordaz |
| User ReviewAnderson EI trapped a demon in my closet, and do you know what he did? He sang Randy Newman songs for a good six hours. I sat there, and I listened. I'd go on, but, I digress. Devil's Eye, quality Bergman. |
| User ReviewPearl SA fantastic film. Beautiful photo. Wonderful actors! See it if you can! |
| User ReviewPavandeep SOne of Bergman's most interesting work, where questions of infidelity and its moral questions are answered, where love, both true and false are defined. Very different from his other works, it almost feels lazily done, but it definitely is one where you see some of his insights into a very interesting topic, utterly different from 'Scenes Of A Marriage', |
| User ReviewRiccardo Pi love this movie. it's funny, witty, well acted, perfectly scripted, visually beautiful. its discussion of free will, love, and various religiuos/philosophical themes is pretty interesting. Bibi Andersson has never been prettier. Stig Jaerrel is even better than he had been in Lesson in love |
| User ReviewWut SIf Marivaux, like Bergman, wrote romantic comedies whilst vacationing near syphilis sanatoriums, perhaps he would write something like this. Except that it's still stranger than such a description would suggest. |
| User ReviewJuha RHilarious and charming; it is often forgotten how skilled Bergman can be with comedy. |
