My Review of movie: Lovely Bones

I have not read the book, but I intend to, since most people are saying the book is even better than the movie. Which is usually the case with most books that are made into movies.

This movie was so emotionally raw and beautifully done, that it definitely should win some Oscars in my opinion. It will sink into your bones and make you shudder inside..it will also warm your heart and remind you of how important family is. How we take life for granted so much and we forget that it could end at any time. I believe we all have a destiny, a fate, as you want to call it. Some of us are meant to be here a short while, and some of us are meant to be here for a long time.

That doesn't necessarily mean that some have more to learn than others or less than others, it just means that the time we are here on this earth, whatever we do, is what matters. The film also portrays Karma. What goes around will eventually come around. If you put out love, love comes back to you. If you put out evil, it comes back to you. The universe has a way, in-between its dimensions, of working things out. Sometimes it is clear to us, and other times, it takes a while for us to realize what is happening.

You see the life of a girl that was murdered from her side, as she waits for her family to find her killer..and to come to peace with themselves, and her death..once those things have come to pass, she feels that she can cross over and be at peace in the new world that awaits her.

It is certainly not a film for children. I would say it is best for teenagers and adults. It can be very graphic and very raw and emotional. Definitely a movie worth seeing, no matter who you are in this life.
