    Storyline

    Edit
    Elliot Richards, a socially awkward IT worker, is given seven wishes to get the girl of his dreams when he meets up with a very seductive Satan. The catch: his soul. Some of his wishes include being a 7 foot basketball star, a wealthy, powerful man, and a sensitive caring guy. But, as could be expected, the Devil must put her own little twist on each his fantasies. —MrGreen

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      (at around 1h 4 mins) The mathematics homework that the Devil removes from the classroom blackboard was effectively to prove Fermat's Last Theorem - a legendary problem from 1630 that was often the subject of stories about people selling their souls to solve it. The problem was eventually solved in 1995 by Andrew Wiles and colleagues (with computer, not satanic, assistance).
    • Goofs
      (at around 1h 7 mins) When Elliot becomes Lincoln about to leave for his fateful visit to the Ford's Theater, his wife refers to "Our American Cousin" as an "entirely new play." In fact, "Our American Cousin" was first performed in 1858, seven years before Lincoln's assassination, and the performance which Lincoln saw was the play's thousandth.
    • Quotes

      Elliot's Cellmate: She's the devil that one.

      Elliot Richards: What?

      Elliot's Cellmate: I said she's the devil... that lady cop.

      Elliot Richards: Oh... yea. I guess.

      Elliot's Cellmate: So what are you in for brother?

      Elliot Richards: Eternity

      Elliot's Cellmate: Oooo... that's a long time. You must have done some really bad shit.

      Elliot Richards: Yea. I sold my soul.

      Elliot's Cellmate: Hope you got something good for it.

      Elliot Richards: As a matter of fact, I got nothing for it.

      Elliot's Cellmate: Well that's a really bad deal if you ask me.

      Elliot Richards: Well I'm not asking you.

      Elliot's Cellmate: Doesn't really matter, though. Can't sell your soul anyway.

      Elliot Richards: Oh, really? Why do you say that?

      Elliot's Cellmate: Because it doesn't really belong to you in the first place. No way, no how.

      Elliot Richards: So who does it belong to?

      Elliot's Cellmate: It belongs to God. That universal spirit that animates and binds all things in existence. The Devil's gonna try to confuse you, that's her game. But in the end, you're gonna see clear to who and what you are, and what you're here to do. Now, you gonna make some mistakes along the way, everybody does. But if you just open up your heart, and open up your mind, you'll get it.

      Elliot Richards: ...Who are you?

      Elliot's Cellmate: [smiles] Just a friend, brother. Just a really good friend.

    Fun movie, good comedy.
    No, this isn't the best or funniest comedy in the world, but I certainly enjoyed it. There is a fair amount of really good comedy in the film to keep you entertained. ...And of course there's Elizabeth Hurley...need I say more?

    The story is a fun one and quite the fantasy, but nonetheless, it's entertaining. While not being anything terribly profound, this film definitely has a point to make, be happy with yourself and only you can make things happen, don't rely on others for your happiness.

    The acting in this film is very good. Brendan Fraser struts his acting talent in this film quite nicely, playing virtually 5 or 6 characters throughout the film. Brendan really is a talented actor and should get some notice for his role in this film. Orlando Jones, Paul Adelstein, and Toby Huss also deserve a great deal of notice for their work in this film, all three of them play various types of characters in the film and do it quite nicely. Elizabeth Hurley and her ever-changing wardrobe should be reason enough for any guy to watch this film. She looks nothing short of fantastic in every scene. Frances O'Connor was a nice choice for the part of Alison / Nicole (also playing more than one role very nicely).

    All in all, this is a fun, cute movie with some really good comedy. I would recommend this film to anyone that likes those types of film, or is just a fan of one of the actors or director Harold Ramis. I hope you enjoy the film, thanks for reading,

    -Chris
