Infamousta brilliant actors, brilliant editing

Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

James Lee I saw this in theaters with a group of friends and it was flawed, but good. I thought it was fun. You could tell the director's life was on the line, as he had very little to work with.I got this on Blu-ray and I truly believe the picture is 1000 times better than the theater was. Maybe it was the theater in Des Moines that had a bad projector. The presentation is way better on the Blu-ray disc. It's one of these movies that keeps you thinking about it after. The concept was good, you simply feel bad in places that it could've been done justice with more budget. The result is a quirky little movie, but I didn't believe the main character was a writer. That could've been fleshed out more. A former colleague is murdered and she uses the main character's mind to lead her killer, who is on the run, into another dimension where she can get revenge on him. Overall, it was enjoyable. A movie for aspiring filmmakers to study, if only to showcase what is possible with a micro-budget and a big idea. The bonus disc is alright, it mostly shows the day to day going on set. Check it out.

kloysen5 I've never seen a new movie take such hits. Better the Devil You Know was the very first of Augment Image's feature length movies. The movie played in select theaters across America last year, but most people missed it due to a new Harry Potter film and a Transformers movie. This was kind of a huge mistake on Augment Image's part, considering Better the Devil You Know isn't really a summer blockbuster. I don't know what they were thinking. Had this been released in the fall, I feel it would have done a lot better. On the flip side, the movie seemed to be doing really well in Illinois when I saw it. I actually caught site of the movie poster in the lobby. The Bench movie played before this. Better the Devil You Know started out slow. I think most people have trouble with the whole format because it is not your standard "goal oriented" protagonist type movie. You spend the entire movie simply getting to know the main characters. It's like your basically hanging out with them and finding things out along with them. The biggest problem is: people who want to be surprised and taken on the journey with the characters will love this movie like most positive reviews already said. People who want a familiar, paint by numbers approach that would've made this movie boring will be uncomfortable and turn it off. This is character driven, not really action driven. The whole movie is a build up to the end. The end was really cool.It's a movie that is really about the characters and not so much the action. It shouldn't have been released as a summer blockbuster. I think that hurt it and it might be why some people are out of sorts with it. It gets kind of serious at the end, but still stays fun. Better the Devil You Know is far too ambitious to be a run-of- the-mill independent film. It's also way too low budget to be a Hollywood film. It's just cool and doesn't take itself too seriously, which is what the filmmakers are about.

Eddie Borgers I just finished watching Better the devil you know and I can advise no one to do the same. The film is about three friends that come back to their home town because they felt the 'urge' to do so. All of them are without a job and at first that is thought the reason that they came back to the village they grew up in. One of them, Tom Anderson, has had a dream where his and his friends death was predicted to him. The film continues from there.Better the devil you know is a low budget movie and has that written all over it. Unfortunately not in any good way. It lacks a decent story, talented actors and decent music. This actually might have been the first comedy that didn't even make me think about a possible smile. Leave alone actual laugh. Despite the boring beginning I thought this film might have had some potential. I couldn't have been more wrong. After the film ended I was wondering if I could think of a worse way to spend my time. I cannot think of any audience that will like this movie and cannot advise anyone to spend time on this attempt of a movie.

RICHARD A new kind of humor for me.. . serious farce. quick wit almost "nit wit" but entertaining. subtle humor you could easily miss. But don't miss this flick. Loved Sam's job, and the drive-thru fast food scene. Andy McCain as Sam is a totally believable nerd as a person we all know in life. The attempts to escapes out of town are cool. Some lighting imbalance from character shot to another but added to the fragmenting of the story bits. There could be more about Sam and the techo-haunting of each character but what was there was fun to watch. I bought the 2 disk set from Amazon and suggest that the making of and the out takes give the viewer a full picture of the challenges and fun that goes into a one camera low budget indi film. PROPS.
