	Author	Review
United States	Adam Markovitz Entertainment Weekly	"A pocket-size supernatural thriller that plays a bit like Agatha Christie's Ten Little Indians (...) this one deserves credit for an efficient premise (...) and confident pacing "	NEU
United States	Robert Abele LA Weekly	"John Dowdle ('Quarantine') gamely works every atmospheric trick a cramped scenario allows, but can't turn the screenplay's many disparate parts"	NEG
United Kingdom	Kim Newman Empire	"While the script throws a few spiritual contrivances our way, it's a fun and tense watch and a promising start for the 'Shyamalan Presents' marque"	POS
United States	Jeannette Catsoulis The New York Times	"A serviceable burst of high-end hokum, 'Devil' classes up a flimsy, religion-themed plot (by M. Night Shyamalan) with the kind of limber cinematography only someone like Tak Fujimoto can deliver."	NEU
United States	Scott Tobias AV Club	"Low-grade hokum"	NEG
