Oh, God! You Devil

I'm a 15-year-old fan of George Burns. He's one of my favorite comedians. I've loved him since I was 10 years old. I saw the first Oh, God, and loved it. I thought maybe this one would be almost as good. Boy was I wrong. The humor wasn't that great. Neither were any of the other actors. The other people in this movie, besides George Burns, are not really well known. I was just waiting for it to end. If you want a good George Burns movie, see the first Oh, God, or the Sunshine Boys, but avoid this. 3/10

This 1984 comedy stars George Burns, Ted Wass, Roxanne Hart and Ron Silver. The late, Burns plays dual roles as God and the Devil. This story focuses on Bobby Shelton (Wass), a struggling musician/songwriter who wants more to his life. Soon, he meets Harry Tophet aka The Devil who makes a deal with him to have a trial run as rock star, Billy Wayne. Bobby gets a taste of fame, but soon realizes he's been tricked into giving his soul and desperately tries to get back his own life with God's help. Hart (Highlander) plays Bobby's wife, Wendy and the late, Silver (Timecop) plays Gary Frantz, Billy's manager. I watched this on TV growing up and always liked it. It's got humorous and a couple dramatic moments and Burns & Wass are great in it. I recommend this good comedy.

Burns acting is good, story is weak. Alot more could have been done with this one, it seems almost like the money was running out as the movie was progressing, and they had to cut to the chase without much thought except ending the movie quickly.

I think this installment of the Oh God series is very good. When Satan said the contract was a trial period, that just shows how Satan likes to lie and manipulate. Even though George Burns is gone, I think they should make a fourth installment to the series and have Bill Cosby play the role of God and the devil (If the devil wants to be in this one) To explain Bill Cosby in the role, the beginning of the movie could have God saying that this time he has decided to take on a different form, than the one he used in his last three visits to earth, and then the movie picks up from there just like the other ones did. Since George Burns can't star in another sequel, I think Bill Cosby would be the perfect alternative, as he would give the character a very similar touch.

Good not great. Not as good as Oh God! but better then Oh God! Book II. I finally saw this today and it was good. Oh God! You Devil is a good ending to the series. So if you liked the first 2 or just the first, then you should like this. George Burns is funny in both roles. So it is a good film. MPAA Rating:PG. My MPAA Rating:PG-13. Too bad that we never got a fourth one. Well, enjoy. I hope you like it. I liked it because it has some funny parts and it was appealing and if your a lonely(or feel lonely) then you should like this. so, My overall rating for Oh God! You Devil is 7 out of 10 angels. So enjoy. Thank you. Have a good time while watching it. It has some good slapstick and a good performance by George Burns. So enjoy.

that's more like it.this third film of the series puts a new spin on things.George Burns is back as God,of course,and the Devil.the story here is fresh and original,and there are quite a few laughs to be had.there are also some very touching moments.George Burns is a gas as the Devil,and it sure looks like heed had a ball playing that role.Ted Wass is great as the hapless victim of the Devil.this movie is quite fast paced compared to the previous two,and it has a much slicker polished look to it,but it works in this case.while i didn't quite like it as much as the first one,it comes in a very close second place.for me,Oh, God! You Devil is a 7/10

Burns is effective in dual roles, as God and the devil in this third installment of the Oh, God! series. This time God tries to save Bobby Shelton (Ted Wass), who was once a nobody and now a rock star, from the clutches of the devil. The story works for a while and doesn't take itself too seriously. For fans of Burns, you'll be satisfied.
