I loveeeeeeeeeeeeee the movie! And i loveeeeeeeeeee the books. I can't believe people didn't enjoy this movie. I was so excited to hear they would make a movie about 'City of Ashes', so I'm shocked they would cancel it! But also reliefed to read that they reconsider the production. I'm so excited to see this movie and I hope they make a movie for every book Cassandra Clare wrote.

I love the book the movie.. I'm 36 about to be 37.. I am in love with it.. For someone like me who has fibromyalgia and can't get around much.. This book takes me to a place that I feel like I can put myself and not be in pain.. I'm driving my teens crazy watching it.. Please keep going and fire who ever did the marketing.. I saw it at the video store and thought I will give it a try.. Now I have two copy's ( one living room and one in the bedroom) lol..

After watching the Mortal Instruments, I now appreciate all other first films in a series that take the time to tell the story. The film didn't concentrate enough on the characters and their stories. It jumped from scene to scene too quickly as well. It got off to a really good start and the guy playing JC did the book justice. I personally feel Valentine should have been older, the werewolves spectacular battle towards the end of the book didn't live up to expectations and neither did the battle with the greater demon. They changed it too much and if they do a sequ they should flesh out the other characters and stick closer to the books storyline.

Jamie Bower was fantastic in the City of Bones. This series was ten times better than twilight series. As a huge fan of the series, I was thrilled to see the first film in theaters and I will be equally exited to see the second installment. Jamie Bower is a fablous actor and he would have been a better choice as Edward Cullen in the twilight series than Robert Padision. Hes clearly loaded with talent and very handsome. As a huge fan of Mr. Bower, I can't wait to see more of his movies.

I did enjoy this movie-credits rolling now. I took so much from this movie and several comments already say what I would. I just need to add one seriously highly recommended suggestion(personal opinion). Please, if you're going to stick with Jamie as Jace, tell the dull nearly emotionless faced man to take a dang shower. Bit distracting when that's all I could think every scene he was in.

I love the Mortal Instruments series! I've read the Infernal Devices, all of the Mortal Instruments books besides the sixth, which comes out in May, and The Bane Chronicles. I'm a major fan of the whole series and companion books & it means so much to see the characters come to life! Cant wait to see this movie :)))

Major fan of the whole Shadowhunter series but the problem with the movie was that it wasn't long enough to incorporate many of the important scenes. So what if it costs more to make it longer? The longer, the more it will be like the book, and the more money you'll make. Keep the movies like the books to get the same fan base and positive reaction.

This is an amazing book series, and could become a larger than life movie series. They messed up not getting the info out there that it was being made into a movie and then when it was going to be released. It is a darker series, so they are going to have to target the right type of people. I am happy to know that they are making City of Ashes into a movie and I really hope this one does better because this is one of the best series I have read in a long time. I enjoyed so much more than hunger games and twilight.

I loved this movie!! So glad to hear they are continuing with the sequel. I had never even heard of the movie until it came out on dvd. It definitely needs better marketing. I have just recently purchased the books and started reading them, definitely a page turner. I am 41 years old and my family and I ALL loved this movie.

I'm a big fan of the Mortal Instruments whole collection. And I'm waiting for heavenly fire to come out soon. They have to have sequels for the Mortal Instruments. I actually starting reading the books after I watched the movie. It actually makes a person get interested in reading the books. So they should definitely make all the books into a movie. The characters in The Mortal Instruments is so awesome and its a pleasure to watch them come to live played by an amazing cast they put together. Cant wait for City of Ashes.

If they're wondering what they did wrong with the first movie, it was that they didn't include some of the most important parts like when Simon turns into a rat or when Hodge's curse is dropped and he traps Clary in a box after she almost gets her eyes torn out by Hugo then almost takes her head off but Luke saves her. If they wanted to attract a better audience then they should stick to the story line and only leave out small parts not the greater demon part. I know money is always an issue, but if they want to make more of it then they have to step it up and throw all they have into making it the best that it can be. But despite that I still loved it and can't wait for the second movie.

i hope they don't cancel, The City Of Ashes, i want to know what happens with Clary and Jace, i can't believe they are actually brothers and sisters, it would be funny if they weren't actually brothers and sisters!! they look so cute together!!! Don't Cancel It! i love the book so far can't wait to see what happens next!!

I agree with Anna; try to make the movies like the books. Most movies based off books try to make it so that viewers can watch and not have to have read the books but that's where your wrong. Most viewers will be people who are interested in the books. Make them long enough and incorporate as much as possible. People like the books bc of whats in them. Dont take it out! Make it longer!

I Absolutly love these books, however I was disappointed with the movie. They jumped from scene to scene way too quick. They left out important parts. My biggest disappointment was the casting. Jamie fans please don't hate me after I voice my opinion. Jace is suppose to be this perfect, beautiful masculin guy. Although I love Jamie he's just not that guy. Also jace is sullen and sarcastic, Jamie just wasn't convincing. I really felt that jaces character should have been played by someone else. It just ruined it for me. I will watch the next movies only because I do love the books. I just really hope they rethink some of the characters and they don't screw up the seelie court scene.

I vaguely remember the advertisements for this movie back in the summer , had completely forgotten about it until i received a "movie on us" coupon from my cable provider needless to say this was the movie i purchased absolutely LOVED it found out that this was a series of books bought them all and read them all in a little under two weeks. I simply could not put them down. I am so glad that they are going ahead with City of Ashes hopefully the screen writers will stick to the book instead of trying to rewrite for the screen there is no need the books stand strong on their own… Hopefully all 6 books will make it to the big screen and the cast will stay in it for the long haul too….Jamie Campbell Bower was a perfect choice for Jace (in spite of what some critics say) cant wait to see who they cast in "later" parts as this series if given the chance should become one to remember…..Keep on going with it guys give it the chance it deserves!!!!!
