The Devil's Advocate

This is a very Christian movie. If I saw this movie half a year ago, I should still have a half-knowing. This involves original sin, God and Satan, the rule of the world, sin in this world, and other issues mentioned in the Bible. Every scene of the plot design feels like it has scriptures to test it. With my superficial understanding of the Bible, there is no way to describe them one by one, but it is true that after reading the Bible for a few months, I was suddenly excited when watching this movie. But at the same time, it aroused my long-standing question: How can a country with Christianity as its state religion be so contrary to its beliefs in terms of value orientation.

This film asks exactly that question. In the film, Milton, that is, Satan, used vanity as bait to try to make Kevin fall into his trap. He packaged sin into human nature and planted it on the Lamb of God. At the end of the movie, Kevin rejects his temptation and chooses integrity. However, this choice is not representative in American society.

Lawyers are a tightrope walking profession, finding reasonable doubts for profit, struggling between justice and evil, but it is one of the most respected professions in the United States. And the entire American society, based on the American dream, regards fame, money, and status as the goals of struggle, even in the name of morality, it is still not advocated by God. American values ​​of individualism are far from the Christian ideology of man and altruism. Why is such a country that has long been immersed in Christianity so far from its religion in the field of values? On the contrary, in the East, this area rarely mentioned in the Bible has been preached in the same way as "God's Word" since ancient times?

Could it be that Satan has actually triumphantly transplanted sin into everyone, and what is human we willingly accept is an unalterable truth? And whether it is the Bible, the Analects, or the Buddhist scriptures, are they just levers to balance our fragile and easily out-of-balance human nature?

Actually, I don't have answers for any of these...or maybe I am thinking too much

    Hackford’s best film is actually stronger than tears and scars. Keanu Reeves’ acting skills were completely suppressed by Satan (this court performance is called "just roaring") Theron played a mad woman especially glass Cut the neck and enter the wood for three minutes. The whole film finally enters a fateful cycle because of sacrifice. The reason is similar to Constantine, but it instantly closes the distance with Terry Gilliam, especially the latter after Connie's debut, the plot horse has gone.

    Desire is the devil. Human desires are magnificent and endless. Watching the lawyer played by Keanu Reeves step by step into the abyss, running in the opposite direction. Suddenly horrified, even if this is not a horror movie. For the sake of desire, we regard the wrong as a pair, but never consider how many innocents and our conscience are trampled under that wrong. However, when you find that all this is not doomed, are you willing to pull back and stop? But beware of the devil's scroll

The Devil's Advocate quotes

  • Kevin Lomax: Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I know you've spent all morning listening to Mr. Broygo talk; I know you're hungry; what I need to tell you won't take very long at all. I don't like Alexander Cullen. I don't think he's a nice person. I don't expect you to like him. He's been a terrible husband to all three of his wives; he's been a destructive force in the lives of his stepchildren; he's cheated the city, his partners, his employees. He's paid hundreds of thousands of dollas in penalties and fines over the years. I don't like him. I'm going to tell you some things during the course of this trial that are going to make you like him even less. But this isn't a popularity contest; it's a murder trial.

  • John Milton: And as we're straddling from one deal to the next, who's got his eye on the planet, as the air thickens, the water sours, and even the bees' honey takes on the metallic taste of radioactivity? And it just keeps coming, faster and faster. There's no chance to think, to prepare; it's buy futures, sell futures, when there is no future.
