So I'm not quite sure if I like this movie or not. I went into this movie with no expectations; I have not read the series and don't know anyone who has. So this was a brand new story to me. If you are not familiar with the story, here it is in a nut shell. A young man named Ethan Wate is fed up with his life in a small rural town in South Carolina, and one day he meets a young witch named Lena. Together they fall in love and learn secrets about her and her family, and have to try to fight to create their own futures whether it be for good or evil.
After seeing the movie I was pleased with it I guess. It falls along the same lines as Twilight and Harry Potter: a love story mixed with magic and trials. So if you are a fan of those you will find this enjoyable as well. It is a bit slow at some points, I thought the accents could have been a bit better, and the acting of some was not as believable as others, but if you are not as picky as I am then you will love it. The acting was good, some did better then others: Emmy Rossum and Emma Thompson were amazing. I don't think I have seen Emmy do a better job in a movie. The love story is very sweet and fun to watch develop. I won't be seeing this again in theaters, but will most likely buy it when it comes to DVD. I do think you should go see it; I am just personally torn between if I liked it or not. But you be the judge.
I hope you all had a great Monday and here's to having a great week!
