Elliot Richards (Brendan Fraser) is a good guy, but he never seems to attain his goals. He works hard, tries to make friends, and is a very nice person, but girls don't seem to like him that much. Elliot is a very reserved person, but after four years of ...read the complete Bedazzled movie review at DVD Authority.com ("Fusion3600")

Qwipster's Movie Reviews (Vince Leo)
I've yet to see the 1967 original Dudley Moore comedy of the same name, but I don't think I'll need to compare the two. Bedazzled is a story that has been countless times before, from Faust onward. This incarnation stars Brendan Fraser (The Mummy, Blast ...read the complete Bedazzled movie review at Qwipster's Movie Reviews (Vince Leo)
Empire Magazine [UK]
A neat idea transformed into a light, enjoyable, if hardly world -shattering, confection. It is most notable for the flourishing of Brendan Fraser as a bona fide comedic talent. But very little else. ...read the complete Bedazzled movie review at Empire Magazine [UK]
Palo Alto Weekly (Jeanne Aufmuth)
JoBlo's Movie Emporium ("JoBlo")
An underwhelming remake featuring yet another great comedic turn by Brendan Fraser, a perfect sexy hot tamale role for Elizabeth Hurley, but ultimately too much like a sketch comedy show, rather than a movie. Very little oomph! The idea of this film is ...read the complete Bedazzled movie review at JoBlo's Movie Emporium ("JoBlo")
Cinema em Cena (Pablo Villaça)
Movie Mom's review
The classic English comedy written in 1967 by Peter Cook and starring Cook and Dudley Moore has been Americanized. In other words, it has less deadpan humor, sly wit, and existential comedy and more jokes about penis size. But it is still delicious fun ...read the complete Bedazzled movie review at Movie Mom's review

Elliot Richards (Brendan Fraser) is a gawky computer consultant who is a genuinely nice guy that, nevertheless, is the type of eagertoplease person most people try to avoid having to confront in a conversation. Amid his oddmanout treatment, his one true ...read the complete Bedazzled movie review at Dustin Putman

We all want to be loved and respected, but how far are we willing to go to achieve that? Techsupport nerd Elliot Richards (Brendan Fraser) is a sad, lonely man in search of popularity. Plus, he's totally besotted by a coworker (Frances O'Connor), so ...read the complete Bedazzled movie review at Susan Granger
San Francisco Chronicle (Peter Stack)
Fraser and Hurley are terrifically matched for their interplay, and some of the writing is so smart it outclasses the film's cartoonish feel. ...read the complete Bedazzled movie review at San Francisco Chronicle (Peter Stack)

THE WEEKLY MOVIE REVIEW
In a comedy that would generally attract more women than men, guys should be just as willing to attend since a beautiful woman portrays Satan. And not to be glib, but some men will probably identify with the association more than they should. Wink, wink! ...read the complete Bedazzled movie review at THE WEEKLY MOVIE REVIEW
