The Mortal Instruments City of Bones Movie Review

Ohhh the feels!
TITLE: The Mortal Instruments City of Bones
DIRECTED BY: Harold Zwart
BASED ON THE NOVEL BY: Cassandra Clare
CAST: Lily Collins, Jamie Campbell Bower, Robert Sheehan, Kevin Zegers, Lena Headey, Kevin Durand, Aidan Turner, Jemima West, Godfrey Gao with CCH Pounder, with Jared Harris and Jonathan Rhys Meyers
RATED: PG-13
GENRE: Fantasy, action, comedy, romance, violence
So first off, I'd like to say that this movie was SO INCREDIBLY RIDICULOUSLY AMAZING!!! On Sunday night, my mom and I were bored and I convinced her to take me to see The Mortal Instruments City of Bones which I have been wanting to see since it entered theaters! I was smiling like a dork through the entire movie and my mom said she even enjoyed it! Now let's review this baby!
Where do I even begin?
The actors and actresses were perfect. They were so talented and were very enjoyable to watch. The director did a fabulous job with showing all the emotions and feeling the characters had for each other. Jace was hilarious like from the book which made me laugh so hard in some parts! Each of the characters were exactly how I imagined in the City of Bones book. I fell in love with every character! The Silent Brothers were also just how I imagined them. They were sorta creepy but were also just how I imagined them!
The scenes were AMAZING! My heart literally stopped when I saw the institute! It was BEAUTIFUL! I can't even express the feels I was feeling! Hodge's library was also beautiful! It was the kind of library that every bookworm dreams about. Oh! Don't even get me started on the greenhouse and the midnight flowers!!! It was oh so gorgeous it made me want to cry. I would do ANYTHING to visit that place! The City of Bones itself was so cool and creepy at the same time, I loved it!
Although, of course, a lot of the parts were different from the book (which happens in every movie that's based off a book), it was still absolutely amazing! I was still so satisfied with every scene even if it was different from the book. Usually when I watch a movie that's based off a book and scenes are different or they left out a part, it makes me frustrated but The Mortal Instruments City of Bones was the complete opposite. I couldn't get enough of this flawless movie!
Okay, I hope you enjoyed my review! If you've read the books, WATCH THIS MOVIE! If you haven't read the books, read them and then WATCH THIS MOVIE! If you hate reading, then you should go WATCH THIS MOVIE! You will not regret watching this flawlessness! I want to go watch it again SOOOO bad which probably won't happen until it comes out on DVD (which I will definitely be buying, by the way).
STAY BEAUTIFUL!
                                                 XOXO,

Young And Beautiful

I pity the people who have not yet been introduced to Lana Del Rey.
There's something about her voice and her music that just makes you happy.
She's FLAWLESS!
This song...oh, the feels!
Listen to this song, enjoy it, and press replay a couple dozen times.
You're welcome... :)

|| Our Ride Of Freedom ||

False
we jump in the truck after a long night.
ben turns the key and the engine roars to life.
the boy I've always felt something for.
music blairs from the speakers as we pull onto the road.
the speedometer slowly rises.
the music slowly grows louder.
the wind slowly grows windier.
my hair turns loose and goes wild.
the windows are open.
hands are soaring through the air.
we are free.

our two guy friends catch up behind us.
threatening to pass us in their small beat up car.
we go faster.
the corn fields are now just a blurr.
quickly replaced by houses.
we pull into the Tasty Treat.
laughing and tripping as we walk up to order.
one of my friends is working there.
she stares as we come nearer.
the jealously slowly rises in her eyes.
because she knows.
 we are free.
 we sit on the bed of ben's truck as we eat our ice cream.
laughing until we cry.
ice cream cones are being shoved into each other's faces.
being knocked on the ground.
we don't care when people stare at us.
when we're trying to see how loud the truck and car can get.
we simply fasten our seat belts.
the music grows loud.
the speedometer inches higher.
we are free.

we speed down the road.
the speedometer is higher than before.
we pull into pebblebrooke.
we don't care if the seven people that live there will be mad.
just because they have huge houses.
doesn't mean they can stop us from having fun.
we drive down the only street.
interrupted by a cul-de-sac.
we begin to drive in endless circles.
our two friends are right behind us in their old car.
my best friend leans out the window beside me.
her blond hair whips around her face.
her brother, ben, shouts out his open window.
 as he pushes the peddle harder.
we are free.

a man comes on his porch.
he's an eye doctor.
he begins to wave his shirt in the air.
he's mad.
we get the heck out of there.
we laugh.
until we're crying with excitement.
we don't care if we're going 90 miles per hour.
we don't care if the cops catch us.
because.
we.
are
free.
