What to Know

Critics Consensus

The Devil All the Time's descent into darkness can be harrowing to the point of punishment, but it's offset by strong work from a stellar cast.

Robbie Collin Daily Telegraph (UK) Fiendishly gripping... Rated: 4/5 Nov 22, 2020 Full Review K. Austin Collins Rolling Stone The Devil All the Time has the pretensions of a mythopoetic story that's chipping away at a community's dark underbelly. But here the misery is as belly-up and eager to be noticed as a house cat or a dead fish. Rated: 2.5/5 Oct 23, 2020 Full Review Cody Corrall Chicago Reader There are instances of heart and significance scattered throughout the film, but it too often gives into its wandering nature and stops itself from ever making a lasting impression. Rated: 2/4 Oct 7, 2020 Full Review Sukanya Verma Rediff.com Tom Holland smashes his adorable, pop culture obsessed superhero-next-door imagery to show off some heavyweight intensity. Aug 29, 2024 Full Review Sarah Vincent Sarah G Vincent Views please do not do a flashback of a scene that I already saw moments ago. A quick flash to remind us of what happened earlier is fine, but rewatching the entire scene feels repetitive and monotonous. It is not as if the scene was that good the first time Jun 15, 2024 Full Review Amy Smith InSession Film I love the final product we got and with the incredible cast performances, compelling story, and the dark tone that lingered throughout the long-yet-warranted screen time, this is a film that has stuck with me since I first saw it.

Dean S Stumbled onto this one while scrolling Netflix, and was taken in by the cast. Beautiful movie that's hard to watch at times, but totally engrossing throughout the multiple storylines, connected by the two small towns. Holland is brilliant, but the other characters ate up scenes as well. Highly recommended for those looking for a movie that challenges the norm. I sense that most of the negative comments are from Christians - who are definitely presented here in a negative (truthful?) light. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/15/24 Full Review Jake Y Awesome cast and great acting but no discernable plot. It felt like the main objective was to shock the viewer with horrible events over and over and over. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/23/24 Full Review Paulo M One of the best, most intense movies I've ever seen Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/26/24 Full Review Pedro Henrique C The Devil All the Time is a film with a slow and lazy script, there are times when you stop watching this film to watch any nonsense on the internet. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/22/24 Full Review Michael T One of them hidden gems that you occasionally come across on streaming apps, this one follows the life of Arvin Russell as he traverses the murky waters that life throws at him Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/08/24 Full Review Jeffrey P The cast makes it watchable, despite bad structure and coherence, as the plot develops. Very predictable once all the characters are introduced. The voice over narration was inexplicable as it is impossible for it to have known all the details as they were spoken, or who it was that was saying them. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/27/24 Full Review Read all reviews
