Lovely Bones (2009)

Option 1Can't Watch?

Audio sounds demonic? Video not playing/delay while scrolling? Use the "Can't Watch?" tab.

If the movie didn't load, you're being blocked by a security service in use here. Can happen for a number of reasons. Or your specific device/browser might be throwing up weird errors.

Click this first

A new tab will open and a basic security check like a captcha will be performed. After completing the check, close that page and return here.

Refresh this page. Wait 30 secs. The movie should load and you can just hit play.



If it still doesn't play, Click here to watch the movie

The movie should now start playing in a new tab of your browser or begin downloading to your device. This option has the minor disadvantage that English-language movies with optional subtitles in the movie player will not include these subs with this method.

The new system here has been designed keeping in mind even people with low internet speeds sub-8mbps. Even if you have a really bad connection, you should still be able to watch the movie without any issues if you:
Start the movie. Pause it. Wait for 30-45 seconds. Start playing again.

This 'Can't Watch' method really only works if it's your specific device/browser that's interfering with the player. There is no real advantage of speed here. Or if there is a temp network glitch or read lag from the server disk.

On iPhones, especially older ones, use Chrome instead of Safari. Might help.

IMPORTANT: Please make sure that the newly opened tab is not an ad popup asking you to download some software or whatever. Close any such popups and don't download any software - those are ads. Nothing is needed to be done by you other than to complete the security check which is often automated.

AKA: –
Directed by: Peter Jackson
Starring: Saoirse Ronan (Susie Salmon), Stanley Tucci (George Harvey), Mark Wahlberg (Dad), Rachel Weisz (Mom), Rose McIver (Sister), Susan Sarandon (Grandma), Michael Imperioli (Detective)
Country: USA
Language: English (Eng Subs)
Runtime: 2:15:26
Genres: Teen-Childhood, Serial Killers, Family, Detective, Surreal-Fantasy, Old-Young

Plot – Spoilers:
Set in the ’70s, the Salmon family are a relatively happy family who tick all the boxes of the Happy American Family: Two girls, a boy, Dad and Mom. They sit around the dinner table. The parents are always checking on their kids and even involve the kids in their personal hobbies.

Some of the family’s happiness comes of as awkward, even cringy. What isn’t awkward though, is the happiness of 14 year-old Susie, the eldest of the Salmon kids. She is excited about her crush and things like movie club at school or hanging out with Grandma at the mall. The whole film essentially laments how one man can snatch away all this happiness.

At over 2 hours, The Lovely Bones at times seems like it can’t decide whether it wants to be a movie about a serial killer or a Hollywoodised family flick. What keeps it together though, is the very watchable, earnest face of Saoirse Ronan, a great performance by Stanley Tucci and the expected visual mastery of Peter Jackson.

I think it’s lacking of action, and then lots of confusion, esp she escaped and ran and then she died ? What ? As it moves, it’s like something about to happen but nothing happened, the hook was there but there’s no release. Storyline could’ve been better and straight forward to build the suspense to climax but it’s just not there because we already know she died from the very beginning because of the narrative and ending was not my cup of tea, would rather the pedo got killed in prison by prison mates.

Malgrado sia ben realizzato e ben interpretato dai 2 protagonisti di rilievo, risulta troppo surreale e sdolcinato per i miei gusti. E a proposito di film che “esplorano” l’aldilà, ancora ad oggi il mio preferito rimane Flatliners del 1990 di Joel Schumacher che tra l’altro vanta un cast stellare

I remember when everyone was making a fuss about the book. I remember when everyone had high hopes about Peter Jackson directing the film. Been meaning to watch this one for years. It was alright. Probably would have liked it more 15 years ago

Huge budget mainstream Hollywood major motion picture with a high powered superstar cast, the kind of movie you would think EUM viewers would have a fucking hen shit meltdown over. It has some real satisfying moments and it’s visually stunning at times. It also has some corny parts like when kooky grandma comes home to provide some comic relief and some overly sentimental scenes with dead Suzie and her would be boyfriend. Overall it is a very good film but it just misses the mark for some reason and I can’t really put my finger on it. It more or less broke even at the box office but I am pretty sure the powers that be in Hollywood had really high hopes for this one. One of the longest credit rolls I’ve seen in a film – 13 minutes. 4 stars.

when i was in 7th grade, for some fucking reason unknown to me, a substitute teacher i had at the time played this movie for the class while she recovered from a hangover. it freaked me the hell out and stuck with me for a long time. im 21 now rewatching it and i can confidently now ask from the bottom of my heart: Why the fuck would you play this for a group of 7th graders at 10 in the morning.

Awesome film… well done, loved Sarandons part in it, and Ronan was absolutely captivating. Read the book years ago, but it went on & on way past the end of the movie. The director was wise to cut all that out.

A well put together movie in part but spoiled by being overly sentimental. An interesting take on the hereafter.

Chopped her up good . . . Susie Salmon was probably the crowning, perfect jewel of his life.

‘Serial killer’? More like a glorified pedo. This chap was way too green to be a serial killer. 1st reason: staying in the same place for too long, i.e., shitting where you eat; an absolute no, no. 2nd reason: Keeping trophies; ego is a significant hindrance. Third, and the dead giveaway: not backing that truck up closer to the landfill; I was cringing watching those two meatheads breaking their backs while lugging that safe across the yard.

The film was ok, good acting from main character. A little too cutsey for me though, didn’t find it very sad. I guess I was looking more for misery porn though.

Well done…. not exactly what I would consider and effed-up movie but still… it was a captivating film masterfully crafted, well acted and superbly told. 5* all around!

And once again I have to thank the EUM crew for offering it.
