Review of Devil

Devil (2010)
7/10
Simple and Economical
27 October 2013
M. Night Shyamalan has written this striped down story. Five strangers are trapped in an office elevator. There is already an unexplained death in the building. As people gets kill in the elevator, suspicions and tensions explode.

This is a tight little 80 minute movie. The style is sparse. There isn't much flash. The devil is mostly a play of lighting and sounds. It is well done and economically. The movie doesn't get bog down with a long boring introduction. I'm sure the haters will ridicule M Night's recent failures. It's easy to pile on, but this movie reminds us why his movies were first praised. It is a simple bed time horror story.
