Leave your thoughts about The Devil's Own.
| The New York TimesElvis MitchellMr. Pitt moves through this unexpectedly solid thriller with dazzling confidence, showing off all the star power that he usually works overtime to hide. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzAn engrossing but disappointing big-budget political suspense film, that never becomes exceptional. |
| TimeRichard SchickelMore important, we should take into account the fact that this is really quite a good movie--a character-driven (as opposed to whammy-driven) suspense drama--dark, fatalistic and, within its melodramatically stretched terms, emotionally plausible. |
| San Francisco ChronicleRuthe SteinThat the would-be buddies are played by Harrison Ford and Brad Pitt ensures enough star power to keep things moving even during the sluggish early scenes that set up their relationship. |
| Chicago ReaderJonathan RosenbaumAs a well-directed star vehicle with a couple of good action sequences, this is good, effective filmmaking, but I was periodically bored; when Ford and Pitt aren't lighting up the screen nothing much happens. |
| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanIn this quiet, absorbing, shades-of-gray drama, a kind of thriller meditation on the schism in Northern Ireland, we get the story of not one but two powerfully opposing heroes. |
| VarietyTodd McCarthyThe Devil's Own is neither the best nor the worst $90 million-$100 million-area budgeted picture ever made, but it must be the one in which the cost is least evident on the screen. |
| Austin ChronicleRussell SmithThe script, partly written by an uncredited Terry George ("Some Mother's Son," "In the Name of the Father") strains mightily for insight but never quite breaks through. |
| The A.V. ClubJohn KrewsonWhat makes it worth the price of admission is the energetic performance Ford pulls off in the cookie-cutter role of big-city cop. |
| CNN.comCarol BucklandWhile this film runs almost two hours, it seems longer because of the pacing. |
