Review of The Devil All the Time (2020) by Imthenoob — 16 Sep 2020

Holland and Pattinson do very well with their limited screen time but let's be honest people, This movie is a narrative mess with events loosely tied together in a very unappealing and unsatisfying way. The flow of the movie: Here's some vague out of sequence event, followed by a violent (or implied violent) act and followed up the events immediately following said act and then another out of sequence event.

It seems like the director relied too heavily on the cast and the attempts of shock value rather than delivering a more solid narrative that closely tied these events together. And the fact that the director had to rely on voice-over narration to explain everything just goes to show how poorly of a job he did at explaining these explains onscreen.
