MOVIE REVIEW: The Lovely Bones.


GRADE: A-
This movie is excellent.

SYNOPSIS: 14-year-old Susie Salmon is murdered in her hometown on her way home from school by her neighbor, George Harvey. The movie is basically three stories folded into one: Susie's way through "The In-Between" (the path between real life and heaven/hell), the after effects her death leaves on the Salmon family, and the insanity of Mr. Harvey.

This movie shines because of the great (and weird) special effects, the almost all-star cast (Mark Wahlberg, Susan Sarandon, Rachel Wiesz, Stanley Tucci), and the director, Peter Jackson.

This film is based off of Alice Sebold's novel of the same.
I'm very glad I didn't read the book first.
:)

this is ONE OF THE BEST FILMS OF 2010.
