The movie was okay, it didn't blow me away but it didn't suck.

I am a fan of Cassandra Clare, and have read many of her books. Specifically ones from The Mortal Instruments Series. All I can say is, "WOW!" What a series!
I began reading, and, as I completed book 1, I HAD TO run to Barnes and Noble to purchase the next one, and then the next and the next..ect..
Ms. Clare's writing is incredible. Her books are LONG. I actually enjoy reading long books because that means that I have more time to be with the characters. During some of her books, not many, I do admit that I had to either read quickly or skip because it was just too sad.
When I saw that there would be a movie about the series, I was very excited. I thought the movie was great. When I started reading some of the negative reviews of the movie, how many were comparing it to the books, it just irked me to no end. I kept politely explaining that it was an adaptation and that if the movie contained everything from the book, the movie would be another Gone With the Wind. It's too bad much of the public just didn't understand the concept of an adaptation.
As far as the tv adaptation, well, I began watching it, wanted to like it, I really did, but, there are just too many things off with it. But, I wish them well.
I haven't read any of CC since CoHF, because that ending just gutted me, so I've needed a break, but, will probably be returning at some point as a Cassandra Clare reader.
