Synopsis
Elliot Richards, a socially awkward IT worker, is given seven wishes to get the girl of his dreams when he meets a very seductive Satan. The catch: his soul. Some of his wishes include being a 7 foot basketball star, a wealthy, powerful man, and a sensitive caring guy. But, as could be expected, the Devil puts her own little twist on each of his fantasies.

San Francisco Examiner
The ending is a disappointment, a perfunctory upbeat gesture. - 70
Variety
The 2000 version is louder, broader and much, much bigger. - 63
Miami Herald
It's a cute and clever good-vs-evil parable. - 63
USA Today
There's no real dazzle in Bedazzled. - 55
TNT RoughCut
Better to wait for movies like Bedazzled on video and watch Fraser in the theatre when he goes back to playing with Gods and Monsters instead of the Devil. - 50
Village Voice
It might be worth enduring the Limburger to see Fraser morph from freckled-faced Rod McKuen dweeb to seven-foot albino ball star and never miss a beat. - 50
L.A. Weekly
It's nowhere near as funny, largely because of an exhaustingly hyperactive performance by Elizabeth Hurley. - 50
Baltimore Sun
Should sell its soul for a joke.
