The Lovely Bones Ratings & Reviews

djaggApril 18, 2025
A proper piece of trash. Bleak but in the oddest, most uninteresting way lol Very much in the style of Peter Jackson. I mean, was that sinkhole in the fucking shire?? “But I was too busy thinking about the length of Ray Singh’s…….eyelashes” yeah, okay, Peter The idea that the story is being “accurately” depicted as being told by a 14-year-old girl is hilarious. It makes for some wonderfully cheesy narration. The entire film is melodramatic as hell haha and an interesting sound design! Wahlberg is such a bad actor lmao I think it was rubbing off on Rachel Weisz! Susan Sarandon was the only bright spot. I can’t be too hard on Saoirse tho she did what she could, I guess! Crazy the wind stopped blowing right when she stopped going after that piece of paper! I wonder if James Wan / Leigh Whannell got the idea for “The Further” from Insidious from this Hilarious how much spelling out it does. Half of the film is over-explaining and reiterating lol How did this man build and tear down an underground clubhouse without arousing any suspicion? Then dude demolishes it before destroying the evidence? The dad is an idiot and a douche and a damn weirdo! Why am I sticking up for the cops in an imaginary situation?? Love how the dad picked the rose off of the guy’s bush right in front of him all nonchalantly Looks very expensive and fake!! But all the beautiful lighting in the world couldn’t save this film! How is this on peoples’ lists of “screwed uo movies”? lol Was gonna make a joke about the score but then I realized the song it was reminding me of was a Bedwetter song so I’ll keep that one in the chamber for now lol but seriously go listen to “this is not my stomach”
