Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Worse than a waste of time. The main character (the dead girl) does something stupid no one with an IQ over 70 would do in real life, resulting in her murder. Most of the movie is Disney-esque sequences of an afterlife, with no plot. The actual plot takes place on earth, but it consists of almost nothing. We see a family grieve, fall apart, come back together, and the murder is solved...except it isn't. The murderer gets away, and we're supposed to believe justice was served when, as an old man, he dies in an accident. Meanwhile, if you have a brain, you realize he had continued his serial rape/murders until his untimely death. In other words, it's a movie about spending his entire life getting away with rape and murder of girls and women. Hello? .

The Lovely Bones is the 2009 drama starring Saoirse Ronan as 14 year old Suzie who sadly passes away in the Winter of 1973 as she is murdered by her evil neighbour, played by Stanley Tucci as she watches over her family, friends and killer in Heaven. I love The Lovely Bones so much for so many reasons, I love how magical it is and so bright and happy, the film is so entertaining and the acting is incredible by Saoirse Ronan, Stanley Tucci and Mark Whalberg, if that's how ya spell his name. At the moment, I'm actually reading the novel and I haft to say, I like the film more though! The Lovely Bones is a magical and beautifully constructed masterpiece!

Kudos to the set designer and location people. I grew up in Norristown, Pennsylvania shortly after the time that the story would have taken place. According to the book, that was the approximate location of where the story takes place. Everything in the set design and location is spot on as to what it looked like during that time frame. It was incredibly eerie because there is a farm across the street from the High School (Norristown Area HS)and a field where all of the dark parts of the story take place. They really did their homework and did a fabulous job of re-creating the setting of the story. Parts of the movie were shot in towns around Norristown/West Norriton, which really paints a picture of what the area looked like back then. Thanks for re-creating a part of the past and showing off my hometown (even though it is a fictional story).

Was Mr. Peter Jackson's The Lovely Bones a good movie? I just discovered this movie very recently from a old friend. I decided to watch myself but I was skeptical at first due to all of the mixed reviews the movie received. It was okay. The film does have its bad moments; I hated Lenerman, some of the scenes with Grandma Lynn were stupid, CGI was a bit corny and it could have handled the subject matter more maturely. Despite of the bad moments, the film did have its good moments. I personally liked the scene were Susie and her father made contact in the in-between and I also liked the scene were Susie joins Harvey's other victims in Heaven. Susie's death (from the part were she enters Harvey's dungeon to the part were she finds out that she died) was handled well and the kiss scene was good in my opinion. Overall, this movie was not perfect. It had its bad moments but it also had its good moments. Sairose Ronan was wonderful as the lead character and I want to read the book.
