Movie Reviews

Film School Rejects - 9/10 by Rob HunterThe Mortal Instruments: City of Bones may appeal to fans of the books who already know the complete story and simply want to see it brought to life onscreen, but for everyone else it's just a jumbled mess.
Beliefnet - 9/10 by Nell MinowAs with most adaptations of beloved books, this film plays to the fans.
Minneapolis Star Tribune - 8/10 by Colin CovertWith its spectacle, morbid sense of humor and hustling pace, "The Mortal Instruments" encourages you to shrug and just go with it.
ABC Radio Brisbane - 8/10 by Matthew ToomeyThere are some interesting ideas and concepts within this fantasy world but they don't come through clearly enough, despite the 130 minute duration.
The Film Stage - 8/10 by John FinkThe character development and story beats are quite predictable and that's the irony of Zwart's film: he's made a mundane movie for an audience of mundanes.
The Playlist - 8/10 by Drew TaylorNo matter how good The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones looks, it's hard to really care about anything that's going on, and not just because we could barely understand it.
Eclipse Magazine - 8/10 by Michelle AlexandriaThrows everything at the wall to see what sticks - Werewolves, vampires, warlocks, love triangles - because what is a tween story without one of those, gay demon hunters, incest...Wait, what? It is a mess, but somehow it works.
Detroit News - 8/10 by Tom LongThe film drags on for 130 minutes, with the final half-hour consisting of near nonstop bashing between demons, werewolves and magical kids in sleek black outfits.
Screen International - 8/10 by Brent SimonStarts out strongly but loses steam after a half-hour, cycling through a catalogue of tween-stamped CGI mayhem en route to a conclusion less thrilling than shrug-inducing.
Village Voice - 8/10 by John OurslerThe nomenclature varies slightly, but there's little new or exciting in City of Bones. For strong female role models and unique fantasy settings, stick with The Hunger Games.
