The Lovely Bones - Movie Review

I'm not gonna lie, I wasn't expecting much from this film at all. I watched the trailer moments before I watched the film so I got a fair idea of what the film would be about, and the trailer did catch my attention.

So I sat down to start watching it, and the first thing I heard was narration. Now, narration isn't always that bad, however, I'm a bit iffy about it. So the film starts with a young girl who is the main character of the film, talking about death, and how she died. How she loved someone and how this murderer had ruined everything. 

Now there's really not much I can say about the film without spoiling it, but the acting was pretty good, the story telling was incredible in my opinion and if a film ever makes you think 'WOW' or 'Holy Crap' then it's done a good job, because it does a couple of times within the first half of the film.

If you haven't seen it before, then make sure you at least go and check it out, if you have seen it before, then hopefully you understand why I felt like this about this film. 

The film to me is a 7/10 as there was the odd moment where you did want it to just hurry up a bit, and it did feel like one or two scenes were just filler scenes. But a part from that, I did really enjoy the film.

7/10
