Heartless

A song, a film, a poem. These are just a few of the things that have 'heartless' in them. Most people use the term to call someone who is cruel & evil to the core. But in the case of a film starring Jim Sturgess he was born with a birth mark shaped like a heart. Hence he was 'heartless' but also because of the aftermath that occurs. Picked on his entire life he makes a deal with the devil to get rid of this "burden". In turn the devil tells him he must cause some type of chaos in the world.
The devil or evil whatever your belief is, lives on chaos & disorder in the world; but so do most people. In the film they touch upon religion & the forces of good. If one doesn't believe in god & good then there would be no use for evil. Evil is what makes most people believe that there is some good in this world. If you believe strong enough the good will overpower evil, that's the way its supposed to be, right?

I didn't finish the movie, not because of anything religious but it was really hard to understand their accents & the plot line was taking a while. But from what I saw in the movie being born with something that one might find horrendous someone else finds it beautiful. Yeah the same old story "its the inside that counts blah, blah, blah". But it was the power he gave the scar that made it worse for him.

I'll end with this, if you like a movie that will teach you lesson to not be so vain with a little thrill thrown in there then by all means watch it. But in my opinion the movie & its message has been depicted a thousand times. Also a bonus to this movie Jim Sturgess is hott no matter what. :)
