The Mortal Instruments: The City of Bones movie review

Trailer here:


Speaking as someone who has never read the book before, the movie's pretty nice. It has a bit of twilight story-line in it (the love story part I suppose - whereby two guys from different worlds vied for the lady's affections) and it's mainly about angels' human representatives (with super powers granted to them by the one of the angels himself) - called shadowhunters, fighting the everlasting battle with the devils and the occasional 'misguided' shadowhunter. 

If you ask me, I'd think it's a worthwhile movie to watch. Also, it's very likely there will be sequel/s coz the movie's ending has plenty of unanswered questions like - what about that vampire bite her 'friendzoned boy friend' gotten? What about her 'brother's' (actually, my bf told me, later on in the book series, they will discover that the guy is not her brother after all. Instead, her actual brother had become something more hideous and evil than their father) feelings for her? What about her old life? How did the witch died (before she was replaced with an evil shapeshifter)? What about the fate of the shadowhunters since they've gotten their human chalice back? Can they make more shadowhunters to fight the evil in the world?
