Beautiful Creatures Movie Review

Yea.. the movie is finally about to be out tonight at midnight!  I went to the early screening and was asked not to post the review until the movie came out... so I have been waiting patiently!   As some of you may know I was contacted by Warner Bros and was given a lot of swag to giveaway (hope you entered) and also was given a VIP pass to go to the movie last week.  It was fun... my seats were even roped off with a VIP sign with my name and a + 1!!  I even spread the word to some local Colorado Book Bloggers and was able to meet Stuck In Book AND I got to meet one of the girls from YAketyYAks.  Both were very nice and I hope to see them again soon!

About the movie.... personally I liked it better then the book.  It was much more fast paced. A little was changed of course but we can always expect that in book to movies.  I thought the cast was excellent as well.  There were many oohs and awws in the theater whenever we saw the Ravenwood mansion.  I was anxiously waiting to see the big party at the end of the movie and we didn't see that after all.

But it was good and true to the story and that is what I look for most in a movie.  I really dislike it when a story is all messed up (Eragon anyone??????).

Go and check it out and let me know what you think about it!!

Free tickets to Beautiful Creatures movie pre-screening

Hello everyone!!  As some of you may know my Young Adult Book Club is reading Beautiful Creatures this month.  I am happy to say that I was contacted by Denver Theaters to let everyone know that you have an opportunity to score free tickets to the pre-sreening of the movie on February 6th.  The link I am providing is only for the Denver, CO showing but I encourage all of you to sign up at Gofobo and see if there is a showing in your area too.  This is a good website for being able to get a sneak peek at a movie (not just this movie).  I will be there so let me know if you plan on attending the Denver screening also.  Here is the link to Gofobo .

The Denver Theaters has also given me some loot from the movie to giveaway so watch for the giveaway post on my blog soon!!  Enjoy!!
