Tony Toscano reviews “The Lovely Bones”

Dec 30th, 2009 | by Rich Bonaduce

Based on the best-selling novel, Peter Jackson takes into the lives of a family whose 14 year-old daughter is brutally murdered. However in this story we see most of the events through her eyes as she’s waiting to pass into heaven. This is a very strong film with excellent performances by the main cast.

But it is Stanley Tucci’s turn as the killer that makes this film chilling as it tries to be comforting. Tucci has for years been an unsung cinema hero of mine, a man who can play any role, and in this performance he is absolutely mesmerizing.

The Lovely Bones is not for everyone, it is a dark movie in places, but it well worth your time to see. It gets a B and is rated PG-13 for mature thematic material, disturbing violent content and language.
