The Lovely Bones, The movie Options

[Tomates]

Just watched it like 2 seconds ago.

At first I really thought that her sister wasn't going to show them the book. and I was getting super pissed then I thought that the movie was just going to end with the kiss and I was like "WTF! A KISS DOES NOT MAKE UP THE FACT THAT A RAPIST/CHILD MOLESTER/MURDER IS GETTING AWAY!" Then he dies like he was a f*cking video game character. I lold. I get really into movies.

I liked it. Will never watch it again because I was all but still really good.

So im guessing you read the book then? If so i think you're the first person i've met that has read the book and liked the movie! Because everyone else who has read the book seemed to not have liked the movie.

I liked it. :)

I was teary-eyed a few times, like at the part where her dad went after the murderer &the dad got the wrong person. &that one girl's boyfriend started to beat him up with a bat.

Cute movie, but it pissed me off how the ending sucked. I mean, like really? An Icicle? That part with the kiss was cute though. (:

lol yeah i agree i was hoping that he would get caught and get humiliated and yelled at by people and then go through the death sentence.

Such a sad movie...i saw it the other day. Mr. Harvey was so creepy...I'm so used to that actor playing gay men lol, it was weird seeing him in that role, he did an excellent job

you know, i hate movies where you see corpses of people. i don't get why directors want to make the movie even more depressing. but seeing little girls being used and thrown in other places is just wrong.

Am I the only person who didn't like Heaven in between land? Aside from the fact that it was a total acid trip, there were some definite "Come on, are you serious?" parts (i.e. modeling, dancing, etc.). I also felt like it was Peter Jackson's excessive way of displaying his special effects skills... It's not a pleasant story, and I don't think that the movie should've attempted to lighten the material like they did. It seemed disrespectful to the author's intentions for writing the novel.

Although it's been awhile since I read the book, I felt like they cheated the basic storyline. I guess they did it for the PG-13 rating (lame)...

Erm, because that's what happens in the novel it was based on. Things like this happen for real every day, but saying that such situations are sad, wrong, etc. isn't going to change anything. If you don't want to see dead people, then you're going to miss out on a lot of great movies, and even better documentaries, but that's your choice; no one can make you watch anything you don't want to.

I still haven't seen this movie because I enjoyed the book a lot and don't want to see how it's been messed up.

ok, but at least there face should be hidden in dignity. i for one don't want people seeing me dead or seeing people just lay there lifeless. :(

Movies would be f*cking lame if they just hinted to what is happening just because it's sad/scary/disgusting/whatever

The more the movie shows the more I can get into it.
