How sad is this?

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

It will only be waste your time. Actress is cute only. But no story at all. And end the movie suddenly. so disappointed.

Watching this first installment compelled me to Read the Books (just finished Book 4 in less than 4 days) so I say it's good. Though the movie was low budget- it served it's purpose- entertain,stimulate curioosity,appealed to the emotions (i laughed,cried,goosebumps,fell in love while watching).I loved how the casts portrayed their roles and the chemistry was there. This series is beautifully written by Lauren Kate and it deserves to be on the silverscreen.Just please better movie adaptation + marketing:) More of this franchise please!:)

I absolutely loved this movie! I'm a big fan of the books, so I was thrilled to find out a movie was made. I didn't have high expectations as there wasn't any publicity for this movie and I only found out by chance...I couldn't be more wrong, as I was captivated from the beginning to the end. The actors are great, the atmosphere is perfectly created, the music is well-chosen and the story folds out in a very nice way. Does it make you think of Twilight? Yes, In soms ways.. But I don't mind, as I enjoyed every minute of it.I will definitely watch it again!!Keeping my fingers crossed to see all the other books into movies as well.

I will preface this review with the fact I have never read the books and therefore do not know if it was a good adaptation or not. However, from a movie perspective it was sloppy and confusing. The ending came out of no where and I have no clue why she picked the other guy over Cam. The very fact I have had to refer to him as "the other guy" just shows how unmemorable and lacking he is as a character considering he is supposedly the male lead and main love interest. There lacked any real chemistry between them and in general Cam just seemed a more interesting character. They made a big deal out of the fact she wasn't baptised and then kind of threw in the explanation "oh you'll die for good this time cause you aren't baptised" in at the end as if it meant nothing. Really they needed to have a slower reveal rather than explaining the entire backstory in the last 5 minutes. Also, none of the characters but Penn seemed fleshed out. I didn't feel sad when Penn's friend died because I really had no clue who he was, I couldn't even feel sad when Penn died because it was so sudden and was followed with the promise that the angels would "take care of her" - Also what does that mean? Are they going to bring her back? I still don't even really know what happened in this movie, and feel I need to read the books just to understand. I assume that they were planning a lot more backstory to go into a sequel but the quality of this movie makes me doubt that will happen. This film felt more like a lead up to a sequel when they should have focused on having a good movie with a strong plot and memorable characters.
