The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones is an Urban Fantasy film released in 2013. It is an adaptation of the Young Adult novel City of Bones, the first book in The Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare.The film follows Clary Fray, who is seemingly an ordinary teenager living in New York. However when her mother gets kidnapped, she discovers that she is actually one of the Shadowhunters, a race of Nephilim who fight against demons.The film is directed by Harald Zwart and stars Lily Collins as Clary and Jamie Campbell Bower as Jace.A sequel based on the second book in the series was initially planned, but got scrapped after the first movie failed at the box office.

Ambiguous Ending

comment
Ambiguous Ending: Because of the cancelled sequel, the movie ends with no one knowing for sure where Valentine is, whether Clary and Jace agree that they're not really siblings, when Jocelyn will wake up, or what will happen with the two other Mortal Instruments. But hey, at least they got the Cup.

Adaptation-Induced Plot Hole
 The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones / int_56723175
comment
Adaptation Induced Plothole: In the book Simon was abducted by vampires because he'd been turned into a rat, and they mistook him for one of them. In the movie, they took him as a hostage because they wanted the Mortal Cup. The movie failed to give us any possible use Vampires could have for the Cup.

Extended Disarming: Madame Dorothea refuses to let Shadowhunter Jace inside her apartment armed. He drops his sword in her umbrella stand, followed by a knife. Then another sword, another knife, more knives... and still more knives. When he's "finished" and starts walking towards the door, she raises her eyebrows, points to his boot, and he removes one more large knife to add to the collection.

comment
Adaptation Dye-Job: In the books both Clary Fray and her mother, Jocelyn, have green eyes, but in the film they are brown. Their hair is also more of an auburn tone than what was described in the books. Jace Wayland has golden eyes in the book, but blue eyes here. Simon Lewis has brown eyes in the book, but has green eyes here. The Lightwood siblings went from having black hair in the books, to being brunettes here. Also Isabelle’s eyes went from dark brown to blue. Luke Garroway has blue eyes in the books and brown eyes here. Emile Pangborn has grey hair in the books and black hair here. Samuel Blackwell is a redhead in the books but black-haired here. Valentine Morgenstern has white-blond hair and black eyes in the books. Here he has dark brown hair and blue eyes.

Held Gaze: Magnus and Alec have one when they first meet. Cue the squeals of fangirls everywhere. Clary and Jace also share one of these when Clary accidentally falls on top of him.

Cast Full of Pretty Boys: The film has a ludicrously attractive array of males◊ in the cast - the females are pretty too, but there's much fewer of them.
