It’s pretty rare these days to set up a fantastical story that ends, “it was all a dream – and then I woke up”. Horror legal thriller The Devil’s Advocate takes a sideways run at it by having the story take place in a daydream. Halfway through a court case Kevin Lomax twigs his client is guilty of child abuse. Overwhelmed, he excuses himself from c...
At the end of the film, Kevin’s wife Mary Ann (Charlize Theron) kills herself with shards from a broken mirror. Seeing demons in mirrored surfaces destroys her sanity. But actually, Mary Ann sees the world as it really is through these weird reflections, whereas Kevin sees what he wants to. Mary Ann’s broken mirror has a greater significance, thoug...

However, Lomax is his father’s son long before he learns the truth about Milton (Al Pacino): 1. Lomax can second-guess jurors the same way Milton can manipulate people. 2. His winning streak is too ...
In the film, New York represents both big city temptations and hell on Earth. As Lomax’s mother Alice (Judith Ivey) warns Lomax via the book of Revelation: This foreshadows the entire plot. Satan himself now has an office in Babylon (New York). And, as per 17th-century epic poem Paradise Lost – by poet John Milton, no less– it’s the backdrop to the...

Initially, the choice is whether or not to represent a paedophile. Lomax not only jumps at the chance, he actually bullies the young girl accusing his cli...
Someone playing devil’s advocate takes an opposing, unpopular view for argument’s sake. Here, it’s Milton (and as he’s Satan, it makes for a dizzying pun). In the film’s final scenes Milton makes an impassioned speech about the benefits of being bad. He calls God a prankster for giving Mankind desires, but commandments which criminalise them. But w...
The film ends with a twist about Lomax’s dad: it’s Milton, baby. Milton himself drops a huge hint on Kevin when he quotes the scripture he used to seduce Alice: Unfortunately Lomax doesn’t yet recognise the significance of the words. During his big sell on brand Satan in the finale, Milton reveals he’s also Larry, the journalist who followed Lomax ...
