An informal comedy that is at times critical, entertaining, and even discursive. [Full Review in Spanish]

Rating: 2.5/5 --
You have to wonder what Capote and John Huston were thinking in trying to make a satire that didn't have any actual jokes.

Perhaps the oddest film Humphrey Bogart ever made.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
It operates under the assumption that everyone in it is drunk, lusty, a little crooked, and a little crazy, and once you tune in to their wavelength, it's fun to just hang out with them for an hour and a half.

If Beat the Devil puzzled audiences on its first release, it has charmed them since.

he film ranges from the diffident to the grotesque, with Huston selecting his lenses to make the performers look as freakish as possible.
