he Lovely Bones is one of the pleasant supernatural thriller drama
movie. Inspired by Alice Sebold’s 2002 novel and directed later by Peter
Jackson on 2009. Starring Saoirse Ronan as a sweet 14 years old girl
Susie Salmon and Stanley Tucci in the role of George Harvey, the villain in
this film.

The plot involves as Susie Salmon urging the need to avenge upon
her own tragic death from an idealized serial killer miniaturist. There are
a lot of intriguing moment when she is witnessing the events on earth
from the “in-between” as her family turned their beloved house as a
tomb of a grief. As she is around the clock, will she be able to find the
lights in her darkest place?

The movie itself was partially based on a true story. While the novel
classifies itself as fiction but actually it roots lie in reality. Eventhough
the story and its message were generally bland and cloying
sentimentality which led to an upsetting experience, the visual effects
for the “in-between” was incredibly eye-catching. The soundtrack is
remarkably touching as it brings imaginary, dreamy, surreal and
otherworldly feelings with mixed-emotion.

I would recommend this movie, The Lovely Bones especially for
supernatural thriller lovers out there. I’m sure the unpredictable plot will
caught you off guard at the very end.
