The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones

 

  

 

Cast: Lily Collins(Clary), Jamie Campbell Bower(JC), Robert Sheehan(Simon),Kevin Zegers(Alec),Jemima West(Isabelle),Lena Headey(Mother of Clary),Aidan Turner(Luke),C. C. H. Pounder(Dorothea),Jonathan Rhys Meyers(Valentine)
Director: Harald Zwart
Genre: Action, Fantasy, Romance

 

Very much watchable. Enough CGI, drama and action to keep you engaged

 

 

Pluses:

• It aint any different from the regular ghost chasing flick. But it isnt devoid of entertainment. The length of the movie doesnt hurt. You can have a regular expectation and wont be disappointed
• Good that they didnt attempt building this flick in 3D. All the CGI's very much enjoyable in 2D
• Lily Collins and Jamie Campbell Bower are leads in the movie. Romance and action in abundance, keeps you flowing :)
• Robert Sheehan was an important support completing the love triangle. And rest of the support were ably provided by Kevin Zegers and Jemima West, also Lena Headey and Aidan Turner though in a very short role
• Jonathan Rhys Meyers was a handsome bad man, he though showed up pretty late as the mystery kept unfolding. Too many characters, yet C. C. H. Pounder deserves a mention :)
• I should not miss the credit to the Director Harald Zwart, without whose able direction, such genre could easily be a headache

 

 

Minuses:

 

Nothing notably wrong, just an average quality fantasy flick :)

 

 

 

 

 

My rating: 3/5
