Movie review "The Lovely Bones"

Lovely Bones

I watched lovely bones a few weeks ago and I want to say, it was amazing!The story is greatly told I have yet to read the book but after watching this movie I feel that it will be the next step. The characters were very well-developed and the film was also very well paced. I love how Peter Jackson did not use imagery to show her death but only made you feel uncomfortable of knowing what was about to happen. He forced you to become the character and become scared with her. Few directors are able to tell without showing and he did this precisely.  And unlike alot of other high profiled directors he told the story without interruption or exaggeration in a mere hour and half. You weren't restless your in seats for hours upon end waiting for the credits. He left you feeling satisfied and enlightened.

Something that excited me about this film was seeing the trailer and the great imagery waiting for my eyes to behold it's glory. They were amazing! Not only has he worked with great visual effect companies as Weta, a New Zealand based company but he was able to follow through again with this film. The in-between is gorgeous. It is vivid, and so real that you feel almost compelled to become the character so you can reach this point in the film.

Nonetheless, I give this movie a stamp of approval. If your into films that teaches you to let go of grudges, and you need inspiration in death, watch it. It will do that for you.
