So other things I would like to write about are movies.
Lets get this started now with the last one I saw recently. :)
The story is based around this mundane girl Clary. (Mundane means something normal/typical for this world)
She is nor really trubled, having a normal life of a teenager. Hanging around with her friends, rebelling against her mother, staying out late. Clary is a good artist - probably some genes she inherited from her mum - and her drawings are partly scary and like from fantasy world with all the magical creatures you have heard about when you were a kid. Then she starts to draw this weird sign (actually a rune) and everything turns over 360 degrees. Seeing this sign on one gothic/electro pub neon light she decides to take her friend Simon in and see for herself what this club is all about. Waiting for Simon to come back with drinks she witnesses how a group of three people kill one visitor. She screams but everyone is looking at her like she must be crazy because nobody can see what she does.
OK, I must admit that it all sounds familiar.
One person that can see things that noone else can. Of course they will try to contact her and find out where they did a mistake. It is cliche in many parts, but if you like fantasy it is a really good movie for you - if you close your eyes in parts that are "too romantic" and will forgive when the cast is a little bit dull. Still, it is not as dull as Twillight. The world is detailed and painted like a scary but still cool place to be. Clary who is played by Lily Collins is a really pretty girl and she will be wearing a sexy short skirt. It is not like the whole movie is just about that at all - but it is a nice plus to have beautiful actors in it. Jace is a badass demon hunter with a face of an angel. So, both genders have something to look at. :)
I personally wanted to run away at some points when the story was totally predictable or when it was too sweet but I did not.
The world - yep, I am gonna say it again - is amazing.
The movie made me read their book version.
The Mortal instruments - city of bones deserves 3 and a half stars from 5 :)
It could be better but lets wait for the second movie.
