In Scotland 1874, Jack is born on the coldest day ever. Because of the extreme cold, his heart stops beating. The responsible midwife in Edinburgh finds a way to save him by replacing his heart with a clock. So he lives and remains under the midwife's protective care. But he must not get angry or excited because that endangers his life by causing his clock to stop working. Worse than that, when he grows up, he has to face the fact he cannot fall in love because that too could stop his delicate heart.

Reviews

chiarakix I love absolutely everything about it. The tail, the Animation style and most the Music.<3 It's different and lets a lot of space to interpret and use your own imagination.

Kirpianuscus it is one of films who you expect. for long, long time. because, in a beautiful, touching, unique form , it is a film about yourself. and this is the most important thing. it is a trip in the heart of childhood, the old fashion childhood. and this transforms it in a gem. the source of its special spell/magic - the great work of Mathias Malzieu. . his novel. his adaptation. and, his Jack. it is difficult to define it. it is not perfect and this is one of basic good things. it is not Pixar or Disney and this is the second virtue. it is a meet with well known characters from old, oldies stories . and it is enough. because, in fact, it is a an admirable game of imagination.

magneit I started to watch this movie with my children, fourteen and six years old. My daughter (the one on her fourteen) was also commenting that her young brother should not be watching the movie due to inappropriate scenes. The boy went playing with his games and stopped watching the movie. Therefore I will let adults judging how good the movie is for adults.I would like to suggest that this movie should not be watched by kids or young children, or at least watch it first by yourself and then make your own judgment. I would say kids under twelve years old should not watch it although it is rated 6 years old in some countries. The movie is quite dark, fed with cruel scenes and in my opinion is suggesting a fragmented self-image that is not rebuilt at the end. A child is not prepared and has not the capability of self-reconstruction when exposed to such movie.

Cody Konior It takes a lot for me to sign up to IMDb and review a movie, but I had bad feelings about this movie from the opening, then stopped watching at 30 minutes in and jumped to the end to see what happens.In summary the movie is about a boy who's mother leaves him, has his heart taken out, told never to fall in love, gets bullied terribly, when he stands up for himself his foster mother gets thrown into prison and dies while he is on the run, and his girlfriend neither loves him or trusts him also leaving him to die. All wrapped in musical numbers where at age 11 he sees a girl for the first time and sings about tearing off her clothes with his teeth. The movie looks pretty. It sounds interesting. But I have fairly low standards and couldn't watch through this tripe. Neither for kids or adults I don't know who the audience is but they are not of this Earth.
