Review of The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones (2013) by Elizabeth B — 16 Feb 2014

I think the critics are being overly harsh. It had a great pace, didn't drag on like parts of Twilight. They also forget that with any first movie, you have to establish the characters with a little back story so everyone understands what's going on.

I understand that, why is it hard for critics to. Also, most of them are older adults which isn't the target audience anyway.
