Synopsis

The Devil's Advocate (1997) — watch online on iFILM this supernatural thriller from director Taylor Hackford. Keanu Reeves plays Kevin Lomax, a Florida defense attorney with a perfect win record who gets headhunted by a high-powered Manhattan law firm. The money, the penthouse, the clients — everything looks like a reward for talent.

His boss, John Milton — played by Al Pacino at full tilt — turns out to be far more than a senior partner. While Kevin climbs from case to case, his wife Mary Ann (Charlize Theron) quietly unravels, haunted by visions no one else can see. Every courtroom victory costs something Kevin doesn't notice until it's too late.

A Warner Bros. production running 144 minutes, the film balances legal thriller mechanics with outright dread, and Pacino's late monologue became one of cinema's most quoted pieces of villainous speechifying. Stream The Devil's Advocate (1997) in full on iFILM.
