The Devil All the Time is an ambitious production of a multi-threaded and multi-generational narrative. Based on Donald Ray Pollock’s book and made for the silver screen by Netflix, It follows a single family that struggles with the concepts of faith and evil as it is impacted by murder and tragedy — sometimes at the hands of men of the cloth. Willard Russel (Bill Skarsgård) returns home from fighting in the second world war, riddled with PTSD and grasping at faith to ground him. His son Arvin (Tom Holland) grows up with a muddled sense of faith, and is taught to take matters into his own hands. When violence stirs his town, Arvin responds in the only way he knows how. The star-studded cast, which includes Robert Pattison and Mia Wasikowska, deliver powerful performances all around, though perhaps short-lived, due to the amount of ground they have to cover. Most surprising is Holland, who flexes his range in a role he would not be expected to play or carry well.
