Review of Beautiful Creatures (2013) by Jthedarkknight — 26 Jun 2022

A pretty good and entertaining teenage love story. While I guess you could compare it to Twilight, it is it's own thing and puts it's own spin on things. Throughout the first two acts I was really thoroughly enjoying this film, but as it got to the end of the second act and it continued through the end of the movie, I started to get very disappointed.

This was to the point as to where after it was over, I was not necessarily disappointed with it overall, but rather conflicted and unsure as to how I felt about it. You do care about the two lead characters and they have great chemistry in the film, but towards the end they made a couple of bad decisions that both felt unnecessary and as though they cheated to give us what we sort of wanted at the end.
