Didn't quite get this one. It started out real good and then crashed and burned. It was trying to be something it is not and the characters other... n the leading part were not convincing or captivating in any way. Like a weak effort to imitate masterpieces like the sixth sense. Epic fail. Full Review

Honestly i only bought the movie cause i'm a big fan of Across the Universe and Jim Sturgess. Think he's real believable in all his... les. This is no exception. He takes on this role with great charisma and innocence throughout the first 75% of the movie. Then goes from one extreme to another in a matter of a handshake (spoiler). Anyway...it's a great movie and I recommend to anyone just wanting to watch a great/scary flick. A+ Full Review

Unpredictability isn't this horror film's strength, but it's stylishly crafted and excellently acted, and it boasts an abundance of heart in every sense of the word.Full Review

There's more mood than matter here, but suspenseful atmospherics effectively distract from minor plot holes.Full Review

This compelling psychological horror-thriller contains a tremendous amount of heart. That would be largely thanks to a moving and deeply sensitive lead performance by Jim SturgessFull Review

With erratic success, Heartless tries a number of different veins-urban fairy tale with "There was no magic, it was you all along" twist, supernatural family drama-but it's on firmest footing as a macabre comedy.Full Review

Storywise, Heartless is a bit of a jumble, especially in its last third. But it's got a distinct tone, contrasting romance and even outright sentimentality with urban dread and a few nasty visuals.Full Review
