Review of Cold Souls (2009) by Carlos C — 20 Oct 2010

This movie left me cold. Stage actor gets depressed while preparing for his play's debut. He at first scoffs at an idea to be rid of his soul, something I thought the Devil used to do.

When will Hollywood stop trying to find an original idea for a script? If an original idea is good I like it, but this plot is just way too nonsensical for me. A black market for souls? Souls can be seen and kept in a container? Huh?

For unconventional film buffs that don't demand credible stories or love strange plots.
