Trailer review

A dialogue from The Devil All the Time trailer gives an indefinite idea of what the film might encompass. The words, “How and why people from two points of a map without even a straight line between them can be connected is at the heart of our story” are being played at the back of the trailer.

Apart from many stellar performances, Robert Pattinson sticks out like a swan in the herd of ducks. Robert Pattinson's role of a corrupt reverend makes one want to know more about how he is connected to the series of mysterious killings that are highlighted in the trailer.

Walking away from his image of the lovable vampire from Twilight, Robert Pattinson’s role surely makes one realise the immense potential that the actor has. Tom Holland has left no stone unturned when it comes to transforming himself into a boy from the rural parts of America. Right from his physical appearance, to his accent and from his body language to his personality, Holland has completely adapted the role of Arvin perfectly. The Devil All the Time is a Netflix original film that will be available on the streaming platform on September 16, 2020.
