Bedazzled

Director Harold Ramis’ Bedazzled relies on the same obvious humor that made his Analyze This feel like one of Jay Leno’s inane Tonight Show monologues. Here Brendan Fraser’s computer nerd trades his soul to the devil (Elizabeth Hurley) for seven wishes, each of which leads to gags that could be followed by a drummer’s rim shot.
