Critic Reviews of "The Devils (1971)"
VarietyAugust 14, 2008Reed carries the film with an admirably restrained portrayal of the doomed priest. Redgrave, on screen only sporadically, is stunning as the salacious sister.
Time OutJanuary 26, 2006No matter how thickly Russell piles on the masturbating nuns, tortured priests and dissolute dauphins, there's no getting round the fact that it's all more redolent of a camp revue than a cathartic vision.
New York TimesMay 09, 2005It's a see-through movie composed of a lot of clanking, silly, melodramatic effects that, like rib-tickling, exhaust you without providing particular pleasure, to say nothing of enlightenment.
Empire MagazineFebruary 09, 2015Whatever the moral perspective, it keeps you gripped right to the end.
TV GuideFebruary 09, 2015The set design, by future director Derek Jarman, is probably the most successful element of the film.
ReelTalk Movie ReviewsAugust 03, 2010Never letting up its energy, 'The Devils' is eye-ride.
Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDecember 18, 2005Ken Russell at his excessively visual best and dramatic worst.
ColeSmithey.comOctober 07, 2005Twisted genius.
Film4May 24, 2003Russell is at his most spectacular in this magnificent tale of God, diabolism and desire, and by Reed's own admission the performance was among the best he ever gave.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)January 08, 2003Quite frankly one of the greatest films ever made. Period. No qualifiers are necessary.
