Don't listen to some of the critics. A very good scary movie. I think the critics knocking it just do not like the exorcism genre. If you liked The Rite or The Conjuring you will like this movie. A story with characters you care about. Also based on a true story which of course means there are certain liberties taken with it but that makes it more interesting. This was a scary movie with brains. The background and setting reminded me a bit of the movie Seven. The priest is the most interesting character. I normally am not a huge fan of Eric Bana but he plays the role of the detective well. This could also be classified as a crime thriller with a supernatural twist.

There is absolutely nothing original about this film. The acting isn't bad at all, but the plot is very generic. For the hardcore horror lover the movie will get boring and predictable, you've got the cop with some issues, you've got the priest know knows what's happening, you've got the cop's family with the little girl, the entire plot is a deja-vu.

The basis on which the occult is based has also been used in almost every exorcism film ever made, even though the writer tried to make it a bit more interesting by mixing Christian with persian mythology, however it didn't land that well.

The mystery character is also not very mysterious either, so I guess this film doesn't deserve more than 5 stars from me.

In a way watching horror movies is like having relationship, u feel like sh*t when it ended, but it doesn't mean it was bad relationship, it was probably your best relationship you ever had.

So does the horror movies, if u feel terrible after watching it, it doesn't mean its bad movie, horror flicks supposed to make u feel that way.

I think that's one of the reason why horror movie is always underrated, many people rate it while they are feel terrible and still recovering from watching the movie.

So I just watched this movie, actually I am still recovering from watching it.

The director of this movie is the one that made Sinister, I think is not as strong as Sinister (I love Sinister), but it's not that bad, it doesn't deserve 6. I gave it 7.

So what's good about the movie? The story is not that bad. The story can keep me entertained till the end. I watched every second of it. Although I feel like the pacing can be better.

The cinematography is good, it is well shot, it gave the chill and dark atmosphere.

There are few shocking moment, although it is not as many as Insidious. but when it came it doesn't feel forced.

Oh there is McHale to ease the tension, although his joke is kinda bland in this movie, it's still nice to see familiar face (I watched Community).

Well overall it was OK movie. I can't really say anything bad about it, but yea it's not really epic, but it's OK. If you like horror, and can suspend your disbelief for two hours, this movie can entertain you.

This is by far one of the best exorcism type movies I've watched in a very long time. The whole tune of the movie as it progresses is cryptic, and keeps you longing for more. Always trying to figure it out on your own as the movie plays on. Most exorcism type movies drag on with the plot and lose me halfway in, but this one however kept me entertained throughout the entire time. Eric Bana's acting is top quality, and quite frankly the best acting I've saw of him since "Troy". It's def. something to look into, if your looking for a good movie to watch. Be it Drama/Horror/Mystery, this movie is for you. You cannot do split rankings on here, but I give it a good 8.5/10 score.

It's been a while since I found a decent exorcism movie. I mean, some of the exorcism-theme movies I've watched is pretty decent if not too ordinary. Too similar with the process and the pace. So, when I see that Deliver Us From Evil has arrived, I too didn't really put up too much hope. I thought this is just another typical exorcism movie.

You see, most of the exorcism will always start with the same process. Some devil possessing a child (or someone), (usually) the parents got distracted over the fact and try to find a way to rid the devil. A priest got the information and try to help exorcise the demon. The priest done it successfully (or so he thought) only to find that the demon hasn't really left the child. The priest then try to find a much more experienced priest to help him and finally able to rid the devil for good, but with the cost of someone's life. That's pretty much how all exorcism related movie goes.

But not with this one. I'm actually pretty hyped up after watching it!!! The acting is great, the pace is good and basically got a different presentation to make this into a not boring "typical-exorcism" movie. It actually makes you yearn for more information, dragging your heighten-interest along the way and keeps up the momentum to finally gave you a shocking horror, straight to your face.

I dare gave it 8/10 for Deliver Us From Evil.
