I've seen this film at least five times and considerate to be one of my favorites. Although I've never read the books, I much prefer the direction of the film than the show, along with some of the casting decisions. I understand it was flawed but I'd argue it's enjoyable nonetheless....

Film that is based on the discovery of the powers of a girl, who have always been hidden in her. So going forward with various plot holes and not perfect acting the movie drags to the end becoming a classic nasty love movie mixed action for kids with few pretensions.

Truthfully speaking I didn't read the books, but i watch the series shadowhunters and i loved did so i decided to watch the movie and it was really disappointing. I don't know from where to begin and i didn't like the visual effects i think it was poorly made.

I have so many questions it's incredible. There are so many plot holes i don't know where to start. Storyline is great. Execution was horrible. They really could've done something with this but nope. They already have great actors playing yet it's still bad.

I'm not gonna compare this to the books or the tv show but this movie felt so rushed. It felt like a two hour movie were everything needed to be put in. It didn't give time for developing relationships and the cast was also not really talented.

But got lamer and lamer the longer I watched toward the end. Too much cliche. It is one of the movies I didn't see before for still got the feeling I watched the movies a dozen times before.Maybe watch twilight again instead.

While I didn't hate this interpretation of the books, it definitely didn't give me all the feels reading the books OR watching the CW series did.Not a ton of chemistry between leads but visuals were good.

Badly and forcibly glued and sewn to sit and watch, the bad choice of actors, especially Jace!People her are Alle the time with shocking faceLook like I'm watching muted movies with pianos sound! Hahaha.

Tragicer

So disappointed they didn't continue the series. I loved the movie and the chemistry between Jace and Clary was so good. I tried watching the show and could barely make it through the first season.

SgtLennon

This is a great movie I what is with the critic any way all they like are kids movie and there do not know a good horror movie when they see it. This one of the scariest movies ever.

JohnQSpartan

I've never read the books so can't compare but this film is awful. Plot holes galore, weird pacing, dodgy acting: it's got it all unfortunately.

SelenetheHunter

I saw this movie and went on to read the books. I am so disappointed that there no more movies made. Great cast and story.

WeAreLive

The sound track for this movie sounds like a sample collection you would find making a project on imovie.

OnlyTheFinest

This is a good movie. Don't let all these Twilight haters keep you from enjoying it. It's not Twilight.
