Sinopsis(1)
Clary Fray es una adolescente neoyorkina aparentemente normal. Una noche, en compañía de su inseparable amigo Simon, decide ir a la discoteca de moda Pandemonium. Allí presencia cómo un extraño joven llamado Jace parece asesinar a alguien, pero el cuerpo de la víctima desaparece y nadie más parece haberlo visto. Jace comienza a seguir a Clary, sintiéndose cada vez más atraído por ella hasta que termina revelándole su secreto: Es un Cazador de Sombras, un grupo de poderosos guerreros, mitad ángeles-mitad humanos, enfrascados en una antigua batalla para proteger nuestro mundo de los demonios. Una batalla en la que Clary jugará un papel decisivo. (Entertainment One Films Spain)

For how exemplary Lily Collins is as Clary, there's so much disappointment on the whole that it's downright tragic. Jamie Bower is clearly desperately bored in Jace's shoes, the creators forgot to tell the wild Jonathan Rhys Meyers that this was not just another episode of The Tudors, and my favorite Isabelle has turned into a snappy dominatrix. Jessica Postigo may have dutifully read the saga, but she wants to incorporate practically every supporting character with all their motivations into the script, even though in this format it would take up half the running time to explain the entire mythology. Luke and Hodge then merely fill the role of forgettable sidekicks instead of making a proper impact on the plot from time to time. The creators ultimately did not even get the chance to return to the Institute, so no further damage was done. I have a great fondness for the saga of the nephilim world in book form, at least as far as the original trilogy is concerned, so I don't want to delve too deep into this rating on principle, but considering how the outcome could have been, a 50% rating is quite a sad limit.

I have to say, the first hour or so was quite enjoyable and got me excited for what was to come. But then something suddenly went wrong, as if another director took over, and the story became incredibly predictable. The characters acted foolishly and illogically, and several important things were left unresolved, which suggests a sequel is coming despite the lackluster box office returns. However, I'm not too excited because, at least from a cinematic perspective, it's an overstuffed mess that could be defined as "Harry Potter meets a Gaiman imitator, and they both agree that Twilight and Star Wars are super cool."
