The life of a young guy named Elliot Richard, who struggles against having such a miserable life and struggles against winning the heart of Alison Gardent, who does not care about him, has been turned upside down when Lucifer, the king of darkness comes to him and offers him seven wishes in order to take his soul, and he cannot break the deal, so when he accepts the offer, everything changes.
This is about as simple and uncomplicated you can get, but it isn't trying to do anything beyond providing some quick and easy laughs in a refreshingly heavenly comedy.
There's no real dazzle in Bedazzled, though you may be befuddled trying to figure out why anyone was compelled to make the effort.
