Some of the actors chosen for the characters were good, Clary, Magnus, Valentine, Hutch, Joselyn maybe and Luke perhaps but I could not for the life of me see Jace in the actor chosen and Isabelle looks much older than 17 as well as Alec so a little hard to delve in - but as ALWAYS Jonathon Rhys Meyers performs to perfection as He is scary good!

Loved it! Of course it's a little different in parts from the book but that is to be expected. Really really enjoyed

the casting was way off. Lilly Collins & Lena were great choices but that was it. other than being less than impressed with the casting choices I was totally thrown off by the music. really terrible. catherine harwick should have directed it.

Overall, it was a great film. There were some parts that didn't follow the book as closely as I would have liked. But, as far as book-to-movie adaptations go this was one of the better ones I have ever seen. The action was good, the demons were scary, there was lots of action and most of the casts acting was exceptional.

Didn't read the book and this movie does nothing to encourage me to read it. Bad story, I could write better. Poor timing in the flow and action of this movie. Worse that Twilight series if that's possible.

it was very entertaining at some parts but not in others. It was WAY off from the book and I think that it really skipped out on making the characters deeper; although I did think that there were some crappy actors but there were also really good ones. I also found that it was too fast moving and although there was lots of action I found that they did not portray the emotion as great as they should and could have.

Okay for a movie but if you've read the book, it is WAY off. I was highly disappointed. Ps...It should be rated PG13 at least.
