Imagine Faust set in high school. Now imagine it inspired by the sex comedies of the '80s, and cast with actors who look like they're nearing their 10-year reunion. Kevin Pollack stars as the Mephistopheles-inspired Jerry, the guy in charge of buying souls for Satan. His latest victim is high school nerd Henry Spooner (Michael A. Goorjian) after the kid mutters under his breath how he would sell his soul to the devil in order to go out with the prettiest popular girl in the school, Lori Petler (Shiri Appleby). Henry is happy enough to use the powers of evil to become popular until he realizes it's testing his relationship with his best friend. Plus, he starts to believe he's becoming popular by himself, not because of the manipulations of the devil. Deal of a Lifetime is not a great movie, but Kevin Pollack fans will want to check it out because he's given free reign to ham it up big-time and make a lot of costume changes. --Andy Spletzer

3.0 out of 5 stars my personal review, June 10, 2001

This film has all the elements, cute actors like Shiri Appleby (which was the only reason I bought the film Ha!) All and all the acting is rather bad, Kevin Pollak was terrible, and Michael Goorigian look far too sensible to be the averrage high school geek. This film was too predictable with Henry getting the girl at the end, but my didn't they look good together.

If you are thinking of buying this film, don't,unless your a big fan of Roswell Hign (Shiri Appleby), or Party Of Five (Michael Goorgian).

I rate it three stars because Shiri Appleby shined this average low budget film up.

Shiri Appleby is the only reason I bought this movie. As usual Shiri turns in a great performance. Just not enough scenes with her in it.
