Reviews

Variety - Derek Elley
Some genuine shocks punctuate The Exorcism of Emily Rose, an unusually intelligent genre item that manages to mix full-bore horror with courtroom drama.
75
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
Somehow the movie really never takes off into the riveting fascination we expect in the opening scenes. Maybe it cannot; maybe it is too faithful to the issues it raises to exploit them.
67
Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum
Part "Law & Order," part "The Omen," the movie doesn't trust the audience to follow serious theological and legal discussion without a spook hook.
63
ReelViews - James Berardinelli
Take away the performances, and all that would be left is a cheapish B-grade motion picture.
50
The A.V. Club - Scott Tobias
Part courtroom drama, part otherworldly shocker, the film basically restages the Scopes Monkey Trial and comes out once more against Mr. Darrow, and it's got the spine-twisting, tongues-speaking, devil-channeling hellion to prove it.
