BBC
Bedazzled is a biting, mischievous and witty satire of the highest order. - 100
Chicago Sun-Times
In films of this sort, too often the camera records the fun instead of joining in it. However, that is certainly not the case in this magnificently photographed, intelligent, very funny film. - 88
Portland Oregonian
This genuinely irreverent film is one of the few to dabble in theological humor. It's wicked, but only up to PG-level heresy and impiety. [03 Apr 1998, p.38] - 75
TV Guide Magazine
Cook and Moore brilliantly shift from character to character with just a change of voice (not unlike Peter Sellers), and the movie never flags. - 75
USA Today
This is director Stanley Donen's spotty but superior original -- made before Dudley Moore's superstardom but after his and co-star/co-writer Peter Cook's Beyond the Fringe stage glory. [06 Apr 2007, p.8E] - 70
The New Yorker
The movie is no more than a novelty, but it may surprise you by making you laugh out loud a few times. - 70
Variety
Bedazzled is smartly-styled and typical of certain types of high British comedy. - 60
Time Out
Good fun sometimes but a little too sketchy, with a plot that is almost as threadbare as the outfit worn by the voluptuous Raquel Welch in her cameo role as one of the Seven Deadly Sins.
