I already knew I loved the movie from seeing it at the theater. What I really liked was the quality of the Blu-Ray disc and the audio reproduction (sound effects especially) were awesome. Too bad it wasn't released on 4K but this is still really good!!

Here is another attempt and turning a Young Adult (YA) novel into a successful brand. However, this was not near as successful as that of other YA novels (Harry Potter, Twilight, Divergent etc.). If you've never read the book then it can be very enjoyable, but probably limited to the younger generations due to the use of "teenage angst". It has some decent actor/actresses involved with the project, but they can only carry it so far. There's a little bit of action thrown in, but I think there was more warranted than what we received. If your a fan of the book.... well you might want to pass. Not that it doesn't get some of the things right, they just probably change things for the worse in this case. The book is much better than this attempt (I'd say it's true for the follow up that they are making for television as well, but that's a different time and place). It stinks that they didn't do better, because they could have made a good run of movies, granted that they had a better direction and delivery on movie 1. Recommendation: Have NOT Read the book: worth a watch. It's a fun stand alone movie that can be enjoyable. Just don't think too much into it. HAVE read the book: you may not want to bother, because if your like me you will mentally (or maybe verbally) pick the movie apart from what all you know from the source material.

If you like fantasy this movie was fun to watch and the price point was good

I enjoyed The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones [2 Discs] [Includes Digital Copy] [UltraViolet] [Blu-ray/DVD] [2013].

Enjoyed this movie. Good storyline. Check it out.
