The Lovely Bones

I watched the lovely bones after homecoming at a friends house. I thought it was creepy. It wasn't an action movie it was a movie where they try to find this girls killer. The girls name is Susie. Shes 14 years old and lives a normal life. Until one day, she was walking home from school and there neighbor, George Harvey, told her that he made his basement a room for neighborhood kids. Once he finally got her to go to his basement with him, she began to feel uncomfortable. But when she tried to leave, he grabbed her arm so Susie elbowed him in the face and ran. While she was gone, her parents began to worry because she wasn't home yet. Her dad went looking for her while her mom stayed home waiting for the police. Susie returns home to find Harvey soaking in a bathtub. She saw her charm bracelet on the sink next to a bloody razor and that's when she figures out that Harvey murdered her. Then shes pulled into a surreal world which is neither heaven or earth. From there on, she watches over her family and friends because shes unable to let go. Her family doesn't know that Harvey is the one who killed her. He kept her body in a safe in the basement.  Jack, Susi's father, is suspicious of Harvey being a suspect. Lindsey, Susie's sister, breaks into Harvey's house looking for evidence. She found a lock of her hair and articles about her murder. She takes the evidence home and shows her grandmother. Harvey is scared of getting caught now because he knew Lindsey had been in his house. So, he leaves, taking Susie's remains with him. Harvey has had other victims, and Susie meets them. She eventually enters heaven and sees that her family is recovering which she calls 'the lovely bones.' I thought the movie was good but confusing at times. Its one of those movies you have to watch a couple times to fully follow it. But i would recommend it to people who like mystery movies.
