once again the same familiar story about a man ( writer here ) who sell his soul to the devil in order to have his most desired ambition in life represent success . unfunny script ( we should go home and write good ) and ridiculous line in order to understand the strong christmanish message ( our only aspiration in life be to find love and respect and a good friendship ) and a very long trial scene at the end where the agent hopkins beat the devil ( jennifer love hewitt be no sexy or evil at all ) for all the bad thing she make to this unlikable character . not bad effort from the actor ( baldwin also a a director and cattrall in a sex and the city role again and aykroyd with some funny line in his limited role ) . p. s. try also a not so popular film from greece call alloimono stous neous and a brilliant adaptation of this myth ( an old man give his soul to the devil to get back his youth ) .
