Best movie of this year hands down!

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

So I went in with no expectations, I thought this was an indie film starring Asia Argento and here she might have an opportunity to shine away from her fathers shadow and creepy insistence on nudity.Immediately I was struck by her similarity to Lily Allen with blonde hair scarily so in fact. I was impressed by her performance but within 10 minutes felt this deep aching you get from films that just aren't nice to watch.90 minutes of the poor upbringing of a child into a horrific life filled with all the things a child simply shouldn't do/see/experience.Mixed in are a remarkable number of famous faces including Winona Ryder, Jeremy Sisto, Ben Foster, Marilyn Manson and in a scene that I'm surprised didn't kill his career Jeremy Renner (Deeply unpleasant stuff) Nasty open ended and almost modern day Shakespeare The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things is something to watch to put things into perspective if you feel like your life sucks.Good performances but comparable with cystoscopy for both entertainment and comfort levels. And I mean that literally, I've experienced both and this movie is as fun as having a camera shoved up your urethra.

I think this is the worst film I have ever seen. I am amazed to read a positive review of it on IMDb. It's the story of a young boy with a junkie hooker mother and abusive grandparents who gets dragged, pushed and pulled from one horrendous situation to the next. It's a tale of abuse - in all it's forms. In my opinion, it was child abuse to even put a child actor through the scenes they filmed.Depressing, horrific, disgusting, unpleasant. I don't see what was achieved or expressed by that movie. I was so disgusted by it, I suggested my video store send it back to their suppliers - which they did. I never did that about a film before...

I were in rage and anger so had to bite my tongue to get through to the end of this too overrated movie, the whole concept is blunt and do not get me wrong the acting was "OK". This film will go into the list of the worst films I have seen, and hope it will be the last in this category. The story does not seem to have any solidity to it, and the ideas brought forth are of course very unrealistic. This will most definitely go into the top three of the films that has made me this uneasy. Save yourself some happiness and watch something else unless you are into dark films with no grounding or are planning to get anything from the experience. (I have to get up to ten lines per text for this comment to be accepted so this is the reason for these last few lines, so please do not waste your precious time reading this as it is not supposed to be read. I am only trying to use up my minimum characters because I have nothing else to say about the film.)

The dysfunctional twenty-three years old Sarah (Asia Argento) takes her six years old natural son Jeremiah from the home of his beloved foster parents with the support of the social service to live with her. Along the years, the boy shares her insane and lowlife style and is introduced to booze and drugs and mentally, physically and sexually abused by Sarah, her lovers and her religiously fanatic family."The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things" has one of the most sad, depressive, cruel and unpleasant story that I have ever seen in a movie. It is realistic and dramatic, showing a North America of losers and perverts, and not the usual land of dreams of most Hollywood movies. Asia Argento is amazing directing, writing the screenplay and acting, in the role of the vulgar and cheap Sarah, honoring the blood and names of her father Dario Argento and her mother Daria Nicolodi. The boys Jimmy Bennett, Dylan and Cole Sprouse have also magnificent interpretations in the role of the suffered Jeremiah. Unfortunately there are users that confuse an unpleasant story with a bad film, writing bad reviews because they did not like the movie. My vote is eight.Title (Brazil): "Maldito Coração" ("Damned Heart")
