Written by Sony Pictures Entertainment. For those of you who didn't read the book, City of Bones, this movie may seem a bit confusing to you. This film is kind of like a cliff notes version of the book. Certainly they had to cut things out of the nearly page novel, but some key moments are simply touched upon with a line or two, making the movie a bit confusing at times. Clary Fray Lily Collins is a seemingly normal girl, who for some reason can't stop drawing a symbol. When City Of Bones starts asking about the symbol, she is pulled into a world she never knew existed. As it turns out, Clary is keeping secrets, secrets she doesn't even know she has. It's those secrets that will eventually put her City Of Bones, and the City Of Bones of everyone she knows, in danger. At City Of Bones, the two main characters seem like they are completely different and won't have any chemistry at all, but as time goes on, they learn they're more alike than they think. Once their on the same page, the story really takes off. Lily City Of Bones Abduction, The Blind Side really takes hold of her character and gives the film a strong female lead, that rivals Katniss Everdeen. Collins is paired with British heart-throb, Jamie Campbell Bower, who is a lot more than eye candy. I'd never seen Bower in anything, except bit parts in Twilight and Harry Potter, but the guy has some serious fighting skills. Bower is another one who at first doesn't seem to fit, but in the end really helps to make this film something special. To answer the big question about City of Bones, no, it is not as good as the book and you really shouldn't have expected it to be. The novel is massive and has entire parts that simply couldn't be transferred to the big screen. Some things were left out that shouldn't have been, while some of the more fast paced scenes were extended for the screen. All in all, I thought this movie was a pretty good City Of Bones of an excellent novel and a great film to include in your next movie night. Looking for some great streaming picks?

Clary learns that Shadowhunters, invisible to mortals, are half-human, half-angel demon slayers.

At Banes' club, he tells Clary that Jocelyn had him block knowledge of the Shadowhunter world City Of Bones Clary's mind. They find Simon, but vampires outnumber them. Werewolves intervene and save them. As Simon recovers at the Institute, Clary notices two puncture marks on his shoulder, while he discovers he suddenly no longer needs eyeglasses. Clary shares a romantic evening with Jace, ending in a kiss. When Simon jealously confronts Clary about it, she downplays the incident, City Of Bones Jace.

The group goes to Dorothea's apartment, but a demon has replaced her. Simon and Jace kill it, but Alec is lethally stung. Clary retrieves the Mortal Cup card, and they return to the institute. Hodge summons Magnus Bane to heal Alec. Clary removes the Mortal Cup from the card and gives it to Hodge, who betrays them by summoning Valentine Morgenstern through a portal and giving him the Cup. When Valentine reveals he is Clary's father, she refuses to join him. She puts the cup back into the card, then escapes through the portal that transports her to Luke's store.

While shopping the film prospect around, author Cassandra Clare had difficulty finding a studio interested in making a film with a female in the lead role. Studios asked her to City Of Bones the lead to a male character, which she refused. Alex Pettyfer was originally offered the role of Jace Waylandbut turned it down. Zedd "scored for a key scene in the film". Beth Crowley had also written a song City Of Bones by the movie called "Warrior". A teaser trailer was released in Novemberand a second trailer was released March The film was originally due for release on August 23,but was pushed back two days earlier, on August 21, The film City Of Bones on August 12,at the Cinerama Dome in Hollywood. The site commented that " The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones borrows ingredients from seemingly every fantasy franchise of the last 30 years —but can't seem to figure out what to do with them. The Telegraph 's Robbie Collin gave the film one out of five stars, saying, "This gothic teen fantasy is one of the most disastrous page-to-screen adaptations in memory". Collin added "the plot is an incomprehensible tangle of dead ends and recaps, and afterwards you realise only two things have stuck: the story's countless unsubtle borrowings from very recent pop culture Alas, the titular City Of Bones of Bones is more of a basement. Other than a gag about a cache of weapons beneath every church altar, there's hardly a moment of levity or imagination. For a film that is wall-to- wall fantasy, you've seen all of this before, in much better movies. Far worse is the way director Harald Zwart can't establish a mature tone to support some of the story's genuinely bold and challenging elements, especially a forbidden-love theme that deserves a more serious context". The film is thankfully less self-serious than the mopey Twilight films. The Mortal Instruments revels in its own camp. The action flick is overly long, complicated and, even by teen romance standards, cringe-worthy in its cheesiness. David Blaustein from ABC News also gave the film an average review of two-and-a-half out of five stars, saying, "Director Harald Zwart unsuccessfully tries to compress teen angst, love, passion, unfulfilled dreams and action into City Of Bones overzealous, over-the-top, never-ending finale which seems about as well planned as throwing rocks and sand into a blender in the hope that if you blend it long enough at high-enough speed, you might wind up with a delicious milkshake. However, it does possess a slick, beautiful, young-adult aesthetic and a supernatural, emotional yet nonsensical love triangle that the film's target demographic goes crazy for. The special effects are impressive, the battle scenes enthralling and there is solid acting from all members of the cast. The film's main strength is that it perfectly hits the right balance between drama and comedy. Cinema audiences responded more positively than critics. According to The Wrapthe film "failed to connect" and is on the same course as other misfires Beautiful Creatures and The Host. Executive producer Martin Moszkowicz blamed the weak opening in the United States on "a strongly competitive City Of Bones, including competition from You're Next City Of Bones The World's Endas well as strong holdovers The Butler and We're the Millers. Moszkowicz was confident, saying it was still too early to call, with the film still rolling out release in more territories worldwide. The Hollywood Reporter described the film as a "major in-house flop" and contributing to studio Constantin's losses for the year. On May 8,before the film was released, it was announced that a film adaptation of the second book City of Asheswould start production on September 23, with a release date. On September City Of Bones,The Hollywood Reporter claimed that the sequel "had been pushed in the wake of a lackluster box-office opening" [52] and The Wrap City Of Bones the film had been postponed indefinitely. Constantin is committed to making the sequel, City Of Bones company did not want to rush into City Of Bones with an unfinished screenplay, preferring to take the time to get right". On October 23,Moszkowicz told The Hollywood Reporter that production on the sequel would resume inexplaining that Constantin was determined to continue the franchise due to the positive response from fans to the adaptation, though noted that the marketing campaign for City of Bones was too narrowly focused on teenage fans, proving to be a detriment of Clare's older readers. We haven't made a final decision. But we City Of Bones only move forward—and we plan to City Of Bones forward—when we feel we are going to get it right". Moszkowicz later revealed the intention to shoot the film at some time in Scott Mendelson of Forbes magazine expressed surprise that a sequel was in City Of Bones " The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones received neither positive reviews nor box office large enough to justify its production and marketing expenses. Yet, against all odds and arguably against all logic, On October 12,at MipcomConstantin confirmed that The Mortal Instruments would return as a television City Of Bones, abandoning previous plans for a film sequel, with Ed Decter as showrunner to start production for next year on at least two or three international shows. There was so much from the book that we had to leave out of the Mortal Instruments film. In the series we'll be able to go deeper and explore this world in greater detail City Of Bones depth.
