Rating: 3/4 --
It's a hoary story, but Burns lends a new twist with his slick portrayal.

... there's all too little of Burns here, and what's left is a stagnant update of the Faust legend...

Rating: 2/5 --
George Burns stars in both title roles, primarily the second one. As Satan, he tempts a young musician with stardom and luxury. Burns's timing is often impeccable and he can make silly lines such as his hotel room exit, "If you want anything I'm in 666,"

Unhappily, the story didn't need to get this involved and it winds up constantly trying to pull the picture apart, working against the comedy.

The worst of the series, but Burns still entertains.

The material is extremely slight, but at least it's benign.

Description by OLDIES.com:
In the third and final film in the Oh, God! franchise, Bobby Shelton (Ted Wass) is a struggling musician who can't get a break, which bothers him all the more now that his wife, Wendy (Roxanne Hart), is about to have a baby. Desperate and depressed, Bobby announces that he'd sell his soul to get ahead. Suddenly, Harry O. Tophat (George Burns), Satan's earthly representative, appears and offers Bobby a deal: seven years of unprecentented fame and fortune in exchange for his soul. Bobby cynically accepts and discovers that the devil is true to his word, but he finds that the trappings of fame and wealth are empty pleasures, and he loses Wendy along the way. When Bobby declares that he's made a horrible mistake, God (Burns), who has been watching over Bobby, offers to help get his soul back as the devil offers Bobby's place in eternity as the prize in a poker game.
