A Comedy: Bedazzled
My favorite comedy is “Bedazzled” acted by Brendan Fraser and Elizabeth Hurley, which narrates the Devil's giving seven wishes in exchange for the soul.
The protagonist, Elliot Richards, a socially incompetent technical advisor working at a call-center, was given seven wishes to turn his life around when he met up with a very seductive Satan, who offered him a deal: Seven wishes for him, his Soul for her. But every wish he got fulfilled had massive disadvantages as well, and soon Elliot wanted to get out of the contract. The Devil disallowed and commanded him to make the seventh wish so as to get his soul. In the end, Elliot didn’t lose his soul because his last wish was made for others not for himself. Thus, the contract became ineffective.
The plot of this film is amusing; moreover, it also indicates the weakness of human nature. Elliot is lonely and finds it very hard to make friends, so he accepts the Devil's deal to make his life wonderful. It could be seen Elliot's lack of social skills; also, it reveals the temptability of human nature.
Elliot tries to get along with his colleagues by any funny way, but it is no use. And, at first, Elliot did not want to give his soul; however, when he saw the vision of his dreams made by the Devil, he signed the contract. Even so, at last in a desperate situation his last wish was that Alison, his loving girl, could live happily forever; therefore, the deal turned into unavailable. After this event, Elliot had learned how to live his life better, and the story had a satisfactory ending.
Your soul may not be yours to sell, but where you go is largely up to you.

I find that there are some errors in grammar; I also think your essay is unfocus on the topic. For examples,"the contract became ineffective.", the better word is "becomes" "Elliot is lonely and finds it very hard to make friends in his workplace,so he accepts the Devil's deal" This sentence is too long. You should't have two verbs, you can cut into two or threem sentence. There are also some grammar errors in this sentence.
There are some mistakes in your essay.
"when he sees the vision of his dreams made by the Devil" should be "made from"
"Even so, at last in a desperate situation his last wish is that Alison, his loving girl, could live happily forever" could change the sentence --> "Even so, at last in a desperate situation, his last wish is that he could live forever happily with his loving girl, Alison"
Dear Little:
Your sentence structure was varied and generally correct.
In paragraph two:
The plot of this film is amusing; moreover it also indicates the weakness of human nature. --> The plot of this film is amusing; moreover, it also indicates the weakness of human nature.
In paragraph three:
And, at first, Elliot does not want to give his soul; however, when he sees the vision of his dreams made by the Devil, he signs the contract. --> Moreover, at first, Elliot does not want to give his soul; however, when he saw the vision of his dreams made by the Devil, he signed the contract.
Your organization is appropriate, but you can write more about your opinion.
