Beautiful Creatures - A Review

0.5 Stars - Dull

Yet another film trying to appeal to the Harry Potter, Twilight, Hunger Games crowd... However where Harry Potter and the Hunger Games are interesting and have some depth to them this is just a boring tween romance between the girl who appears to have dark issues and the boy who is handsome, athletic, intelligent, polite, considerate, caring and expresses his emotions easily... This isn't a real character, he is some woman's fantasy of what a perfect man is.

The couple of the film are boring, maybe it's because you know that their love is going to conquer the evil from the outset, and that neither of them will suffer all that much through the film, or maybe it's because the guy, whose name I didn't care enough about to look up isn't a very good actor, and every time he opens his mouth I want someone to punch him.

At least Emma Thompson seemed to be enjoying herself... Jeremy Irons just looked bored, like the whole time he was thinking, I'm better than this aren't I?

He is truly a beautiful creature...

In short, give it a miss, unless you're one of those weird people who likes Twilight... maybe you'll like it...
