Great film, lots of symbolism and a family story to boot

The Devil’s Advocate (marketed as Devil’s Advocate) is a 1997 American supernatural horror film directed by Taylor Hackford, written by Jonathan Lemkin and Tony Gilroy, and starring Keanu Reeves, Al Pacino and Charlize Theron. Based on Andrew Neiderman’s 1990 novel, it is about a gifted young Florida lawyer invited to work for a major New York City law firm.

    I don’t get the logic that discussing the end of a 30 year old film shouldn’t require spoiler tags. There are 20 year olds out there who may never have heard of the film, it’s not their fault they haven’t seen it yet. Maybe they’d enjoy it?

    Robbing someone of an experience you enjoyed or that at least provoked discussion just because they didn’t get to it in time is… I dunno. Bad adjective.

        I mean, I realize that. I was responding to the the first line you put in there, which was….

        Anyway, man. This isn’t a personal dig at you. It’s a general comment on a common sentiment I find online and with which you opened your response to the post.
